5/5Awesome resource when exploring new water!
I recently used the offline map tool when floating the South Fork of the Boise River. Because I was unfamiliar with the river and the float, access points, river distances to campsites, whitewater hazards, and other points of interest to the angler, the offline map was invaluable to me in planning snd executing the 2 day overnight float. Although near the growing city of Boise, ID, the South Fork runs through a remote and deep river canyon setting without reliable cell phone service, so I downloaded the fully curated off-line map and was able to track my float without a glitch! This helped immensely in understanding where I was in relation to my planned campsite for the night, putting me at ease in the late afternoon by knowing exactly where I would be camping and not needing to push through good evening water to ensure I found my camp while there was still daylight. Also, I was able to see exactly where whitewater hazards were located, enabling me to make better decisions, for example, choosing to set camp rather than trying to run a relatively simple but technical rapid in the fading light of the day. I have always used digital resources when planning a river trip, but the research aspect of this process is tedious, requiring a search of several resources to get the whole big picture. With onWater’s app everything is right there in one location making trip planning and the overall experience so simple and incredibly informative with its hand-curated and detailed information. Thanks, onwater!

5/5Awesome app, just could use some extra features
I tried the trial, and after it ran out I realized I had to get the plus subscription. It’s awesome being able to look at how streams and rivers connect and what species are known to be there, as well as being able to know who’s property I’m trespassing on. The AI fish scanner for the journal is awesome, and I love just being able to upload a picture of my fish and everything about it is pretty much instantly logged. As much as I love this app, I will say that it does have a few misses. For one, many of the AI descriptions for waterbodies is generally correct, but often veers off course from the actual nature of the waters. I wish there was a way to suggest edits to the descriptions. Another thing is that not every body of water is mapped. In my small town there are many streams and ponds that I know contain fish that simply aren’t accounted for on the map and thus I can never log my catches accurately. Being able to suggest missed geographical features such as waterbodies, bridges, and waterfalls should be an added feature. Despite my lengthy gripes, I honestly love this app and I hope to see it develop into a thriving community of anglers. Rock on onWater dev team, I love what you’ve done so far and can’t wait to see what you accomplish in the future.

5/5Great Fishing Resource
I was initially hesitant about using a fishing app but I’m happy this one exists. The free version is useful: having a curated view of every access point, boat ramp, fly shop, etc directly on my phone means I can plan trips faster. The My Waters dashboard they added recently has also been a game changer — I use it to keep a pulse on all of the live water conditions for my favorite rivers instead of individually checking them on the USGS site, and I have it set up so I get alerts when stream flows are in my ideal ranges. Their team is also really responsive to feedback about the in-app experience. There are a few things like the river measuring tool that are useful but more manual than I expected and it sounds like those are things they’re actively working on solving for. I’m stoked to see what this app will look like in a year’s time.

5/5A must-have tool for every angler
As an avid angler, I've tried numerous fishing apps, but onWater Fish Maps & Forecast stands out as a game-changer. Its intuitive interface and comprehensive features make trip planning and on-the-water navigation seamless. Key Features I Appreciate: Extensive Access Point Database: With over 100,000 fishing access spots, boat ramps, and fly shops, I can effortlessly discover new fishing locations. Detailed Property Boundaries: The clear demarcation of public and private lands ensures I fish responsibly without the worry of trespassing. Offline Maps: The ability to download maps is invaluable, especially when venturing into areas with limited or no cell service. Real-Time Conditions: Access to current weather forecasts and streamflow data helps me decide the best times to fish. The app's design is user-friendly, making navigation and feature access straightforward. Its blend of detailed information, real-time data, and user-centric design makes it a top choice for anyone passionate about fishing.

5/5Wow…. Very well thought out
You can tell the thought and intention that went into this app! Has all the information you need on the rivers you want… and unlike all the others this is a fishing app for fishermen.. not just species related.. thats a fantastic resource and makes it the go to resource for your trip planning. The fact that it feels like every time I open the app there’s new features is enough for me to be a lifetime customer! That intelligent chat.. holy smokes that works like a dream.. it’s as if you have all the old fishing buddies wisdom right in your hands!! Get the subscription you won’t regret it!

it has in incorrect information water were there is no water. no fishing areas that can be accessed that can be and we'll know water ways that aren't ever marked on the map.
