History

The app was developed by Matthew Krueger and Josh Lichti, and initially released in 2012. In 2018, the PDGA partnered with UDisc and announced that "members who are current in 2019 will receive a free UDisc Pro subscription that includes unlimited scoring, statistics, and automatic scorecard syncing with friends." Starting 2022, UDisc Pro will not be included with PDGA memberships.^[5][6][7]

In late 2017, UDisc implemented an integration with Dynamic Discs Winter Marksman leagues worldwide.^[8][9] In June 2020, UDisc released an online version of their course directory.^[10][11]
