USED BY PROFESSIONAL CAPTAINS DAILY CaptApp is the most innovative and interactive professional fish-logging application available. It’s designed by professional captains to be powerful and yet easy to use, even for those who are new to technology—if you can operate an iPhone, you can use CaptApp. Powerful but Simple: With CaptApp, you can now collect up to ten different points of information for each fish caught or released during your day of fishing with just three taps or less—it’s very fast and easy to use. All or just part of this information can be shared with the anglers and crew and it can also be attached to the boat by hull number. The application does all of the math for you regarding the numbers of Raises, Bites, Releases and Harvests. Just tap and go! Video Association: With just a few more taps, you can easily add a video file, connecting the angler with each fish released using our revolutionary video process. It’s incredibly user-friendly and easy to learn. Tournament Leaderboard: With all of this easily-collected information literally at your fingertips, you can now join a worldwide billfish release tournament during any day of the year. On the CaptApp website at captapp.com, there’s a top-five leaderboard for most total billfish points by some categories. If you love offshore fishing, this is something you’ll want to check out every day! GPS Data: We understand how important it is to maintain control over your fishing hotspots so we never share any GPS position data—the user is in full control of their shared information, including GPS. Data Gathering: With CaptApp, you can now quickly and easily collect information on Fish Raised, Bites, Releases, Species, Angler, Boat, Captain, Crew, Location and Time. The application automatically adjusts the numbers of Raises, Bites and Releases as well, and all of this can be associated with video.

CaptApp's advantage is update cadence (monthly vs every 12 months) and ratings volume (17 vs 2). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
