How do I fix "Watch shot detection requires clubs with sensors." message?

Overview

If you see the message “Watch shot detection requires clubs with sensors. Start on your phone to sync here.” when trying to start a round with Apple Watch, this means a club is missing a sensor (or appears unpaired).

In most cases, this message appears because the app detects a club in your set that does not have an active sensor paired.

Why This Happens

Arccos requires all clubs in your bag to have either:

  • A paired sensor, or
  • Be properly configured for your tracking method

If a club is missing a sensor (or appears unpaired), the system can trigger this message.

How to Fix It

Follow these steps in the Arccos app:

  1. Go to the Clubs page
  2. Tap the wrench icon (top right)
  3. Select Manage Clubs
  4. Review your club list carefully
  5. Look for any club without a sensor icon next to it

Once you find it, you have two options:

  • Delete the club if it’s not needed
  • Pair a sensor to that club

After resolving the mismatched club, you should be able to start your round normally.
