## What is Seam?

Seam is a private fishing log built for anglers who actually get on the water. Log a trip in seconds, add the details later, and keep your spots to yourself.

• Your spots stay yours: no social feed, no public map, no account
• Log catches and misses in a few taps — species, size, fly, photo
• Live water temp, flow, and gauge height, pulled automatically for your stream
• Region-aware hatch charts — accurate whether you fish PA or Montana
• 900+ fly patterns with real tying materials — and save your own version of any of them
• Your own Fly Box inventory, always up to date
• "Hey Siri, log a miss" — hands-free, right when it matters
• No ads. No tracking. Your data stays yours.

YOUR SPOTS STAY YOURS
Seam is not a social network. There's no feed, no public map, and no leaderboard, and your catches and locations are never shown to other anglers. Your log lives on your phone and syncs only to your own iCloud.

LOG WHAT MATTERS
Start a trip and log catches (or misses) as they happen — species, size, fly used, and a photo, all in a few taps. Add notes and detail later once you're off the water. Everything syncs privately across your own devices via iCloud.

LIVE STREAM CONDITIONS
Seam automatically detects which stream you're on and pulls live water temperature, flow, and gauge height from public USGS data — no more guessing whether the water's fishable before you leave the house.

WHAT'S HATCHING, WHEREVER YOU ARE
A region-aware hatch chart tells you what's likely hatching this month — built separately for the Mid-Atlantic, Northeast, Southeast, Midwest, Mountain West, Pacific Northwest, Pacific Southwest, and Alaska, so the timing actually matches where you're fishing instead of one generic chart for the whole country.

A FLY LIBRARY THAT GOES DEEPER
More than 900 fly patterns — trout, bass, steelhead, saltwater, pike, carp and more — with full tying materials, sizing, and the natural each one imitates. Tie it your way? Save your own version of any pattern with your exact hook, dubbing, and materials, then add it to your Fly Box or shopping list in one tap.

YOUR OWN FLY BOX
Track exactly which flies you own and how many, so you always know what's in your box before you tie one on — and before you head to the shop.

HANDS-FREE MISS LOGGING
"Hey Siri, log a miss" — because the one moment you truly can't stop to unlock your phone is right after a fish gets away.

SEAM PRO (OPTIONAL)
See which flies have worked for you in similar conditions, and get an alert when today's water looks like one of your best past days. Everything else in Seam — logging, trips, stats, fly box, stream conditions, hatch charts, and iCloud sync — is free, forever, for everyone.

Seam doesn't run ads, doesn't track you, and doesn't sell your data. It's just a fishing log, built by someone who fishes.

## Version history (last 4 releases)

### 1.4 — 2026-10-28

New: My Versions. Tie it your way and save it. Make your own version of any fly pattern with your exact hook, dubbing and materials, then add it to your Fly Box or shopping list in one tap. Suggested by a fellow fly tier. Plus reliability fixes.

### 1.3 — 2026-10-12

The biggest update since Seam launched.

Fish Measurer, without the ruler — shoot a fish with Seam's own camera and get a length automatically. On newer iPhones there's nothing to put in the frame — no net hoop, no tape. It now estimates weight too, not just length, using the fish's own body shape to tell a fat fish from a lean one of the same size.

Photo Time Machine — your journal starts the day you installed Seam, but your fishing didn't. A new backfill in Settings scans your camera roll for old fish photos, pulls the date and place your camera already saved, looks up that day's real stream conditions, and lets you add them — nothing gets added to your journal without you looking at it first.

Warmwater/Smallmouth Mode — a real mode for bass anglers, not just trout: conditions read correctly for warmwater, size checks tuned to real smallmouth, and a fly calendar built around crayfish, hellgrammites, and topwater season.

Also in this update:
• On the Water — a stripped-down logging screen for an active trip, plus a Live Activity on your Lock Screen and Dynamic Island
• New widgets — this year's catch count, days since your last trip, and a Home Water widget with live conditions
• Meet Sam, a brook trout who shows up on quiet days and skunk days
• More Siri shortcuts — start or end a trip, check conditions, get a fly suggestion, hands-free
• Species Confirm — an on-device guess at brown, brook, rainbow, or cutthroat from your catch photo
• The After Report and Season Book — on-device write-ups of a trip or your whole season, no network needed
• New in Stats: The Rival (you vs. your own past season), Gauge Ghost (your best flows at a stream), a time-of-day heatmap, and Pressure Micro-Trend
• The Skunk Log — a fishless day is a real, remembered outcome now, not a gap in your log
• Search and filter your journal, edit a trip after the fact, and export your full history as CSV or JSON
• Euro-Nymphing Mode, off by default, for tight-line anglers who want it

### 1.1 — 2026-08-25

New in this update:

• Map tab — see all your logged catches and misses on a map
• Share a catch — generate a photo card to share on Messages or Instagram
• Stats tab is now free for everyone (catch rate, top flies, biggest fish)
• Stream conditions now include historical context, like "above normal for this date"
• Fly Box inventory tracks itself — mark a fly lost and it's added to your shopping list once you're running low
• Widget can now search any USGS-gauged stream, not just the curated list
• Your Fly Box now starts stocked with 12 versatile starter patterns
• Bug identifier recalibrated for better accuracy
• You'll be notified if iCloud sync isn't working, instead of it silently stopping
• Faster, more reliable photo storage
• General bug fixes and reliability improvements
