# Using live aim points > Canonical: https://pinflag.io/support/using-live-aim-points PinFlag's aim reticle is fixed at the center of the screen — you pan the course under it, not the other way round. Every position under the reticle updates carry, what it leaves to the pin, and a live strokes-gained number for landing exactly there, priced by the same engine that grades your real shots. *The PinFlag iOS app is in pre-release. Leave your email and we’ll tell you the moment it’s available.* ## Steps 1. **Pan to aim, don't drag a marker** — The crosshair stays fixed in the middle of the screen; slide the course underneath it with one thumb to move your aim. This is deliberately one-thumb — taps elsewhere never hijack the camera. 2. **Read carry and what it leaves** — Two live numbers track your aim point: the carry distance to it, and what it leaves to the pin. Both update continuously as you pan, not only once you stop moving. 3. **Understand the strokes-gained number** — The number by your aim is the strokes gained a shot landing exactly there would earn, computed live by the same engine that scores your logged shots — not a recommendation. Green means a gain, red a loss, and a small dot marks when the number is an estimate rather than fully measured. 4. **Know when PinFlag won't show a number** — If the ground under your aim or your ball has no geometric basis to price — off the mapped course, for instance — the readout is a dash, never a guessed value. PinFlag would rather show nothing than show something wrong. 5. **It's descriptive, not advice** — PinFlag prices the option you're already considering. It doesn't suggest a target, recommend a club, or tell you where to aim — that decision stays yours.
