Kelpulator helps offshore anglers track kelp and fish, predict drift, and share intel with their crew. Currently covering Point Conception to Ensenada, with more regions coming soon. Mark kelp by dropping a pin or drifting alongside it, then let wind and current forecasts predict where it moves so you can navigate back and find the same paddy hours or days later. Key features: - Kelp drift prediction with land-masking and adjustable windage per paddy - Fish & kelp tracking with distance and bearing from your current position - Ocean data overlays: SST, chlorophyll, wind forecasts (48h + 7-day), surface currents, swell, and bathymetry - Spot forecasts: tap any location to see 1-3 hour interval wind and swell conditions out to 7 days - Tides & moon phases: on-device tidal predictions and scrollable moon phase calendar - Crews: share marks and reports with private or public groups - Reports: rich text, up to 10 photos, 90-second voice memos, and emoji reactions - Direct messaging with crew members - Offline maps: downloadable region packs for Southern California and Baja - Measurement tool: tap the map to measure distance and bearing between points - Time slider: scrub forward through wind and current forecasts - Guided tutorial with demo items for new users - Filtering & sorting by status, type, distance, or date - Metric / Imperial units - Light & dark themes Kelpulator Pro is an auto-renewing annual subscription ($29.99/year) that unlocks wind, current, swell, and bathymetry layers, higher mark limits, and direct messaging.

Verdict
The clearest difference is chart position: NASCAR Tracks at #136 against Kelpulator's unranked. Kelpulator's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
