The apps

What the apps do that a browser can't

The tools here run in your browser. The apps add the wrist, DiscScout's GPS and the history that syncs.

DiscScout

Measure the throw, not just the disc

DiscScout turns your bag and your throws into a record you can act on.

  • Record throws from Apple Watch, with GPS averaged at each point.
  • Chart every disc at four arm speeds and four throws, with your own numbers.
  • See bag coverage and tap a gap to find a disc you already own.
  • Measure distance between two map points, with wind and elevation.

Chains

Every putt, counted

Chains logs practice and turns it into a make percentage you can trust.

  • One tap per make or miss, from any distance, in feet, metres or yards.
  • Four drills that resume where you left off.
  • JYLY from your wrist, with your best and your pace round by round.
  • Make rates from tap-ins to beyond Circle 2, and streaks over time.

Questions

The short answers

Is JYLY free to play here?

Yes. The game, the scorecards, the bag builder and the charts are free and need no account. JYLY was created by Markus Lindqvist; the original is at jyly.altervista.org.

Where are my bags and games saved?

In this browser only, on this device. Clearing site data removes them. The site counts anonymous actions to see which tools people use; the bags themselves never leave your device. The apps keep their own history on your iPhone and Apple Watch.

Are the flight charts accurate?

They are estimates from each disc's flight numbers and your arm speed, tuned to look like published charts. Plastic, wear, wind and release change the real flight. The app uses the same maths, so the two agree.

Which app should I get?

DiscScout measures throws from iPhone or Apple Watch, charts your bag and measures distance between two points on a map. Chains logs every putt, runs four drills on iPhone and plays JYLY from your wrist. Both are for iPhone and Apple Watch.

Do the tools work offline?

After one visit, yes. The site installs a service worker so the JYLY game and the bag builder open without a signal, which is the point at a basket or on a course.
