  Can we have some indication on how the greens roll on approach shots via the the zoom feature button , like the putting grid only bigger .

  You can......Here is how I do it..

   

  I choose pitch shot then zoom view,  

  move aim arrow around the green to see break patterns.   Just don't forget to change back to your normal shot before hitting it.

  I did that quite often in the beginning forgetting to switch back from pitch shot and was on an approach from the fairway a ways back lol.

   

  Hope this helps

  When you do see the grid from far away, it is small and not very helpful.

  Another thing you can do is set your shot for Putt, then the zoom view will give you a really close-up view, just like a regular put - but without the grid lines in this case. Nonetheless, you can see some of the slope without the grid line, plus you get a sense of exactly how far away from the pin you have put the aim marker.

  I'm gonna have to try the putter thing again,  I have tried it in the past but was unable to use zoom view.  

   

  I like the pitch shot aerial view cuz you get to see the whole green.   I just watch for the colors to indicate elevation change and break.
