Even in the free version you still get good information and I still recommend the app to all fishermen. ### 4/5 — adds *2026-07-14, version 10.0.3* there are way to many money adds. ### 3/5 — Catfished *2026-07-11, version 10.0.3* Advertising and in purchase nightmare. The added gifts are if you buy something else you get this to. Could be easier to navigate designed more to enable user instead of greedy added access when you pay more scams. Cancelled less than 24hrs later. Great idea but lost in execution. ### 3/5 — Is it real *2026-07-11, version 10.0.3* I went when it said it was a good bite. Caught nothing ### 3/5 — Meh *2026-07-09, version 10.0.3* Apps alright anybody could just guess like the app does… I got it for the MTB box, paid for a year and the app still pops ads up, little to no info on spots but if you are into mystery boxes it’s cool ### 4/5 — Not bad *2026-07-08, version 10.0.3* I’m a little disappointed, there’s some good info and some decent discounts and deals, but the peak times never seem to make sense for me. Weird after I left my review I’ve noticed my peak and non peak times seem to have switched and actually make sense now. Still super turned off by the “Make Fishing Great Again” tshirt ad. Keep politics out of my fishing apps. ### 3/5 — Not bad feels pricey *2026-06-30, version 10.0.2* I’m a little disappointed, there’s some good info and some good discounts and deals, but the peak times never seem to make sense for me. I don’t think I’ve even gotten a bite during these “peak times” which are almost always in the afternoon. I got a tip email from the app yesterday which contradicted the peak times it suggested and confirmed what I’ve always known that sunrise and sunset are the good times. And I confirmed that myself when I went out at a “non peak time” and finally got some hits. Am I using it wrong? I’m not sure. Also super turned off by the ad for the “make fishing great again” shirt. That confirmed me getting rid of my subscription. Keep politics away from my fishing ### 2/5 — Meh *2026-06-25, version 10.0.0* I downloaded this when it first came out. It was okay but inaccurate for my region. With every update it just gets worse. I stopped paying for it after the first year. With the latest update I now only get YESTERDAYS forecast and today’s forecast. What the ?????? ### 2/5 — You have to pay *2026-06-22, version 9.2.5* It doesn’t let you do much without paying ### 3/5 — Lakes *2026-06-20, version 9.2.5* All other bass fishing apps let you select locations by the lakes and have maps. I would recommend that you have app search for the lake and not a city near the lake ### 5/5 — The best *2026-06-10, version 8.9.3* It’s the best for fishing and tells you when it’s good to fish ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Bad app *2026-08-29, version 10.0.8* Bad app ### 1/5 — Free *2026-08-20, version 10.0.8* Make it free again ### 1/5 — App is so misleading. *2026-07-22, version 10.0.3* This app is trash honestly, I’ve used it for a couple of months and I can honestly say that the bait recommendations are not good at all. The app doesn’t even account for wind, rain, etc, so you’re basically still guessing even though this app claims that it knows what bass will want on certain days. It’s a waste of money do not purchase a subscription. ### 1/5 — Scam *2026-07-17, version 10.0.3* I subscribed to the plan and I can’t get the free mystery box that comes along with it. ### 1/5 — Great app, terrible subscription. *2026-07-11, version 10.0.3* I have no problem paying $30/yr for what this app offers, and i loved it for the longest time. Its a lot of great information. But what kills it for me is that there are still ads and sponsored products in the app, AFTER you already paid the subscription. In essence, you're paying to see ads along with a few more features. Terrible way to run things, and when i started paying for the app, i was paying half as much and these ads werent a thing, so the developers basically did the same thing amazon did where they double the price and include ads everywhere and whenever you start the app. ### 1/5 — Mid app *2026-07-07, version 10.0.2* App is mid at best ### 1/5 — App itself *2026-06-12, version 9.2.5* The only thing this app is good for is the days I’m 15 and I can’t pay for the premium subscription they just need to let you have everything for free except the next day like let you see all the best lures for the day that you’re fishing and not just let you see one or two lures. I only use this app for the days and if I found another app that did this without having to pay to see the best lures I would get rid of this app and get that one. ### 1/5 — App not working *2026-06-11, version 8.9.3* For some reason, it doesn’t load half the time I pull it up and now it keeps telling me to update it, but there is no update so I cannot use the app. What is going on? ### 1/5 — Why am I getting ADs when I subscribe!? *2026-06-09, version 8.9.3* I’ve been subscribed to bass forecast for the last 2 (maybe 3) years but all of a sudden I’m getting ADs! Between forced ads even though I’m a paying subscriber and the bass forecast number changing dramatically seemingly arbitrarily within the same day I’m about ready to cancel my subscription ### 1/5 — Too many’s ads *2026-06-07, version 8.9.3* I had paid subscription and can’t get insurance ad off my page when I open it. Hate this because it could have been a useful tool. Waste of money as it is. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — BassForecast is the GOAT *2026-08-29, version 10.0.8* The bass forecast is an amazing app it tells you what lures to use it tells you what retrieval speeds to use and shows you how to use it with Tyler’s videos in the app. I wish it would were to fish at lake or pond that our fishing. Amazing app I recommend it 👍🏽🎣 ### 5/5 — 👍 *2026-08-13, version 10.0.8* Great app, user friendly, and the subscription version pays for itself and more in perks and discounts. I was going to take advantage of the Hobie discount, but there is always issues with the link/website. Hopefully this gets fixed at some point… ### 5/5 — Great, easy to understand *2026-08-07* It’s a easy and straight forward app to you that is very insightful and helpful to have while I am out to point me in a good direction to start when times are tough ### 5/5 — Great app *2026-08-02, version 10.0.7* This app is amazing it always helps me when fishing to make sure I am fishing at the right time and using the right baits ### 5/5 — I don’t even use this app lol *2026-07-26, version 10.0.3* It’s good but it is not as great anymore cuz they took away the top five baits for the day and I not tryna pay for it but for people that love fishing definitely a great thing to buy the premium or whatever ### 5/5 — Thank you! *2026-07-13, version 10.0.3* Thank you so much Tyler for making this app!! ### 5/5 — Excellent *2026-07-11, version 10.0.3* This app is wonderful, I love the bite times. It seems like they are always dead on, I truly enjoy planning my fishing days around the best bite times. 5 stars and TRF is the man! Appreciate all the tips 🙏 ### 5/5 — Amazing app *2026-07-01, version 10.0.2* I caught my pb bass and I was clueless with lure to use but now I’m a smarter fisherman now. Thank you bass forecast! ### 5/5 — Cool *2026-06-20, version 9.2.5* Very helpful helps me decide what bait to use and when and where and how ### 5/5 — So helpful *2026-06-19, version 9.2.5* The first day I used this app I caught 3bass with the bait they said --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
