• Bite Score on your Home screen — a live "bite now" rating for exactly where you are right now, built from the dawn and dusk feeding windows, weather, wind, barometric pressure, and the moon. Tap it for the full forecast and to jump straight into planning a trip or going Open to Fish. • Trip reminder notifications now show your departure time in your local time zone — they could read a few hours off before. • Your city no longer disappears from your profile if you save with the city field left empty. • Trip dates now display consistently on the trip screen.
