## What is Solunar?

Know exactly when the fish are biting. Solunar Fishing Times uses proven solunar theory to predict major and minor feeding windows based on the moon's position. Core solunar forecasts are calculated on your device and stay available without a connection. Optional live weather and ads require internet. A clean 1-5 daily fish rating tells you at a glance whether today is worth the trip.

WHAT IS SOLUNAR THEORY?

Solunar theory (John Alden Knight, 1926) is the most trusted method anglers use to predict peak feeding activity. Fish bite most aggressively when the moon is directly overhead (transit) or underfoot (anti-transit). Moon phase and lunar distance further refine each day's score. Serious bass and offshore anglers have planned trips around solunar tables for a century.

CORE SOLUNAR FORECASTS WORK OFFLINE

Solunar ratings, feeding windows, moon data and calendars are calculated on your device, and catch-log entries are stored there. They remain available on the boat with no signal, at the lake at dawn and in airplane mode. Optional live weather and ad-supported surfaces use a connection when available.

FEATURES

- Today's solunar rating: 1-5 fish icons — the answer to "should I fish today?" in one second
- Major feeding windows: 2-hour peak bite periods centered on moon transit and anti-transit
- Minor feeding windows: 1-hour periods centered on moonrise and moonset
- 24-hour visual timeline: all feeding windows overlaid on sunrise and sunset bands
- Best window indicator: the single best time today, factoring in dawn and dusk overlap
- Moon phase display: current phase name, illumination percentage, days to next full or new moon
- 7-day calendar: daily fish ratings so you can pick the best day this week
- Notifications: get alerted before the next major feeding window so you can be on the water
- Coastal design: time-of-day theming shifts from dawn slate to midday light to dusk amber
- Dark mode: deep ocean blue palette optimised for pre-dawn checks

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.9 — 2026-08-29

Offline and tide-status clarification

This update clarifies that core solunar forecasts work offline while optional live weather and ads need a connection. The outdated tide screenshot has been removed while tide predictions remain unavailable for accuracy work.

Solunar ratings, feeding windows, calendars, widgets, Apple Watch, barometer and catch logs remain available.

### 1.8 — 2026-08-24

Important tide update

Tide predictions are temporarily unavailable while we correct their accuracy. Solunar fishing times and all other features remain available.

### 1.7 — 2026-07-28

Widget fix — important if you use the widgets

Home screen widgets were unable to read your fishing data, so they showed an empty rating with a Pro lock even for subscribers. That is fixed: widgets now show your real rating, best window and moon phase again.

Also new in this release:
- New Apple Watch app with watch face complications (Pro)
- Lock screen widgets: circular, rectangular and inline
- A redrawn fish mark and gold accent throughout the app
- Widgets now show the correct times for saved locations in other timezones
- A clearer setup prompt on a freshly installed widget

### 1.6 — 2026-07-13

Fixed an issue where active subscribers could lose Pro access when auto-renew was turned off. Your subscription now unlocks Pro for the full paid period.

### 1.5 — 2026-05-31

Optimized performance, refined app details, and made small improvements for a more reliable Solunar Fishing experience.
