Sea Angling Diary vs BeachSpots

The Sea Angling Diary mobile app has been designed to support the Sea Angling Diary Project, a study on the value of recreational sea angling in the UK that has been running since 2016. Available for all participants on the Sea Angling Diary Project, the app has been designed so that users can update their diaries on the go and with ease. The app is synced to your online diary, so you will be able to use both – whichever is most convenient at the time! You must be a participant to log into the app – sign up here if not: www.seaangling.org Disclaimer: Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.
