### 4/5 — Love this app!!

*2023-12-28*

Thanks a lot for this mate!! I’d give it 5 stars if you could specify your catch quota ie male, female, undersize etc.

### 4/5 — Love it but needs a few tweaks

*2023-08-20*

I love the app but many times I’ve pulled the wrong pot.  Need an undo.  The history is great but need to filter to show only the last x days.  Should be able to click on gps cord and map jumps to there.

### 5/5 — Crabbing

*2023-02-17*

Simple to use and quite accurate, saves the memory on which mangrove tree I tied off on. 
Like a drop down or similar. 
You could put 1 keeper, 2 large Jenny’s, 2 small bucks, etc. then you could keep patterns for tides and months.
Good stuff.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2022-11-11*

Very well made

### 5/5 — Great app!!

*2022-11-02*

This app was a huge success for us Lobster fishing! So much easier than trying to keep a paper log but moreover, allowing us to leave the wheelhouse and move about the boat to set, locate and pull, and keep track of our gear! Highly recommend the app and would also recommend reading the reviews which contain helpful info from users and the developer.

Update….tried sending an email which was returned/blocked so I’ll ask my questions here :)
We are wondering if you would consider the following enhancements:
- Add a tab choice for “Lobster”.  (Worked great for us as is and thanks for responding with the possibility for this!)
- Add “Fathoms” back into the app as a choice for depth. (We don’t have to do any math).
- Add an “Edit” feature.  (There we’re a few times the “keeper” count changed on me and I could not go back to adjust it or anything in the notes).
And finally, Lobster are nocturnal so we don’t set gear till after dark and on many occasions, do not stop till after midnight.  So day 1 might be paper logged as 8pm today till 3am tomorrow.  This weekend we did not fish past midnight either night so we don’t know how the app logs this situation?  
- Ideally, it would helpful for the “history” to log each night of fishing as one session.
Thank you!

**Developer response:** Thanks for the great review! Looks like I need to add a lobster option now. :)

Updated: Thanks for letting me know about the email address not working, it should be fixed now. Feel free to contact me there. You should be able to edit your previous counts in the current version from the History tab.

### 4/5 — Love it

*2021-08-17*

Love the tracker that lets me know what previous locations were good (allows me to notate depth, how long the pot soaked how much crab yield) and let me name each pot. I love the depth charts, however wished they were in ft and not fathoms. I wish also to be able to shade certain parts of the maps to give me an idea of new areas I would like to try in the future

**Developer response:** Thanks for your review and I'm glad that you are loving the app! Check out the latest release where you can now see the depths in either feet or meters according to your preferences!

### 5/5 — Great way to keep track of crab pot locations and number caught.

*2020-09-08*

Does just like the title says. The navigation line makes it easy to find pots. 

My depths wouldnt show on the map without wifi or cell service. Not sure if it is possible to do so but other than that it works well.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the great review! I just wanted to follow up that you can now view the NOAA layer with depths without cell service or WiFi. Just scroll to the spot you will be going to ahead of time, and the map will be cached for that location.

### 5/5 — Loving it

*2019-08-13*

So far so good. Only had it two days. Is there a way of having an update that allows to input historical catches? I’d  love to be able to input: date, duration, time of day, depth, count

**Developer response:** Thanks for your review! That's a good idea -- feel free to email me at crabandshrimppottracker@scottstgeorge.com and I can let you know what I'm thinking for a future release.

### 5/5 — Really good tracking app

*2017-05-22*

Super easy to use, which is great as you don't want to take too much time messing around on your phone while shrimping or crabbing. Recommended.
