RELEASE NOTES

What's new in 9 Card Golf

Every update, newest first. You can read the same notes in the app under Settings → Recent updates.

3.7.0 LATEST ON ANDROID LATEST ON IOS August 2026

Made for tablets

  • The board is now sized for a tablet screen in portrait — bigger cards, bigger scores, and controls that are easier to tap.
  • In landscape, the draw and discard piles are now sized to match the cards on your own board, so they are far easier to see and to tap.
  • The opponent board and the scoreboard have grown to suit the screen too, and the scoreboard now lines up with the piles beside it.

UI improvements

  • Send Feedback now matches your chosen look, and confirms when your message has been sent.
3.6.1 August 2026

Maintenance

  • Bug fixes and small improvements.
3.6.0 August 2026

Easier to read

  • Bigger, easier-to-read text across the whole app — menus, settings, sign-in and the game screens.
  • The main menu now adapts to large system text sizes.
  • Stronger color contrast throughout, so labels and scores are easier to read in every theme.
  • Player colors are easier to tell apart, including if you are color-blind.
3.5.0 August 2026

A new look for the board

  • The board has been rebuilt — cleaner cards, clearer turn signals, and scores that are easier to read.
  • Pick your look in Settings: Classic or Arcade, in light or dark.
  • Standings now show your running total and how each round changed it.
3.4.5 August 2026

Online play reliability

  • Fixed a rare problem where a move could keep retrying in the background instead of giving up, using battery and data.
  • Games where your opponent has left now show as ended, instead of looking like it is still your turn.
  • Feedback you send is now saved on your device and sent later if you are offline, so a message can no longer be lost.
  • Clearer prompt when notifications are switched off and you are waiting on an online game.
  • Updated for the latest Android release.
3.4.3 July 2026

Unstuck

  • Fixed an online game freezing with both players told it was the other one's turn.
  • Players who have closed their accounts now show a readable name instead of a long identifier.
3.4.0 July 2026

Two more ways to play

  • Alongside the classic 9-card game you can now play 6-card Golf — the traditional version many of us grew up on — and a quick 4-card game you can finish in about two minutes.
  • Mix and match board sizes against the computer or in pass-and-play. Online play stays 9-card.
