Black screen

Despite I like new UI much more I had to remove this app and back using the old one. When i launch this app on water i get just a blank black screen all the times.

Connection issues. No raw data export.

I like the new UI, but the new app seems to have trouble connecting to my pro+ even when the old one connects fine. This happened in shallow water, when the sonar wasn’t sending any actual data, if that matters. The help message about “how to connect your sonar” kept popping up in the new app, even though I was already connected to the deeper’s wifi network. Quitting and reopening the app did not help. Opened the old app and it worked fine.

Would love to switch entirely to the new app, but can’t until this issues are figured out.

Side note: I would really like to see a data export feature for the actual sonar data (not just depth). Without access to the underlying data, it feels like I don’t actually “own” the device, I’m just renting it for as long as Lakebook is active.

Great update

The app had been working great for me with the exception of the ability mark catches and places, but that has been added with the latest update. I use my deeper
Chirp to connect to a gear track on my kayak and it works great and is simple to setup and connect for each trip. Great work!

Contour lines need improved

I bought my deeper last year and used it on my kayak quite a lot since then. I really like everything about the new app except the contour lines in the mapping. I mostly fish shallow water lakes and it’s incredibly hard to read the lake contour when there is hardly any detail to the maps. However the contour lines in the lake books feature you offer online are fantastic. If you could improve the contour lines to be like lake books then I would easily give this app 5 stars.

Not very good.

This new app is not very good. Water death is off. I get a too shallow reading when it 10 feet. I’ve yet to catch a fish where it says they are this season. The spot I did catch was my normal spot. The deeper did not show any fish.
So idk. What to think about this.

Seems to only show fish when it’s moving.

Old app worked better.

No accurate

This app is not even accurate when it comes to reading water depth. In 8 feet of water it reads as 3 feet? This app is no good just use the Deepersmartsonar app.

When on LAN App. Fails to Authenticate

App. Does not authenticate while on LAN with Proxy server enabled. Only when on cellular network does the app. function properly.

It wont even connect to CHIP+

Tried everything as explaned on web site but my new CHIRP+ wont connect to iPhone 11 with latest iOS.

This gadget is going back to the store.

Review:

After contacting the developer the issue has been resoved. It turns out to be iOS issue not the app itself. The hardware is very good and the app is first class. 4 stars only for now since it is not finished yet.

Ice fishing mode?

Out on the ice right now, ice fishing mode disabled everything else is on? Also can you use this as a sonar/flasher, same like smart deeper app?

Response from developer

Hi there, Ice fishing mode is currently under development, and will be released in the future updates. In the new app, you can enable Standard mode + Narrow beam, and turn off fish icons. This way it will work though an ice hole. The Deeper Smart Sonar (old app) has a fully developed ice fishing mode with an ice flasher, so you can also use that. If you have any questions - don't hesitate to contact us at support@deeper.eu
