### 5/5 — Good app

*2026-08-14*

This app is really cool and very good for knowing what time and when to catch the fish

### 5/5 — Great fishing app

*2026-08-14*

Would recommend

### 5/5 — Ripple Ai

*2026-08-12*

Reads the water well, great for helping understand the different parts of the river and great for any fisherman

### 1/5 — Nope

*2026-08-08*

Have to pay for everything

**Developer response:** Hey Cole, 

I am a solo developer and we are trying to keep prices as low as possible at a inexpensive cost at $8 a month
Every single one of our feature requires us to invest some kind of money, whether if it's money per scan or just the forecast costs, we apologize but is crucial to maintaining our app without junking it up with ads.

### 1/5 — Expensive AI Guesses

*2026-08-02*

Can’t even view the ap at all without paying. From the website it seems to be a mix of good common sense advice you can get elsewhere for free, combined with AI guesswork that will confidently tell you bad information in a pretty way.

Edit: I don’t think giving my honest review is disrespectful. I was clear I was basing it off the website, is the website information different from the ap? If you want to improve the ap here’s where I got held up trying it. The payment screen that pops up every time the ap is launched is buggy. The X button to close it is behind the battery indicator making it near impossible to click. This could be different on different screen sizes and needs to be tested. Furthermore the “privacy” and “terms” buttons on that same screen register a click but do not respond. My guess is that Ai was used to vibe code this ap.

**Developer response:** Hey Tatars, 

Leaving a 1 star review and not even using the app is pretty disrespectful.

So let me tell you how it works since you havn't even used the app.

AI takes info on your location, weather, solunar, biting window, wind, barometric pressure then pushes that to suggest the top species, top lures, fish holding layers, where to cast and the technique and speed to retrieve at.

In future, let's try not to assume anything!

### 5/5 — Best fishing app

*2026-07-27*

Great app told me the biting rates and made me waste less time when fishing. Must get for hardcore anglers who don’t waste hours guessing

### 5/5 — Absolutely a must get

*2026-07-23*

Told me the best times to fish, where to fish, what to use and how to use it. If I could choose if you got this I would definitely recommend this one over all the other ones due to its informative systems.
