AI measures your catch's length, girth and estimated weight, identifies the species, and creates a private digital journal — all in seconds. Proof, Not Guesswork No board, no tape, no guessing. A Proof Ball or Proof Bar in frame is all the app needs. Snap a photo or record a video and the numbers are waiting when you're done. Reduce Fish Handling Measure it. Release it. Faster. Less time out of the water means a healthier fish and a healthier fishery — a practical addition to any angler's gear, from bass boats to fly rods. The Most Accurate Way to Digitally Measure Fish Proof products give the AI a known dimension to measure against, so length and girth are verified measurements, not estimates. Weight is calculated from length and girth and always labeled as an estimate. Used correctly, nothing on your phone measures a fish more accurately. Support Conservation Every catch can count for science — only if you say so. Choose to share your catch data anonymously, without precise location, with vetted fisheries science organizations like NOAA to help protect the waters you fish. Never automatic, and you can withdraw at any time. Digital Journal & Automatic Species ID AI identifies your fish and logs species, size, location, time and weather to a private digital journal and map of your catches. No manual data entry. All your catch data in one place. Online Contests & Challenges Create or join fishing tournaments using your real catches. Compete privately with friends or publicly with anglers around the world. Catches can be scored as a percent of their world record, so you can compete fairly even when you're catching different species. Real catches. Digital leaderboards. For Your Whole Trip Fishtechy’s Story Mode tracks your entire trip, including miles walked or floated, a map of your route, elevation gained, and fish caught along the way. Track the whole trip with the Fishtechy app Your Data, Your Call Your catch data stays under your control. Nothing is shared with scientists or anyone else without your explicit consent. The proof is in the ball. Download the free Fishtechy app today.

About

RecordTime

Catch Every Mile. Keep Every Second. Capturing an endurance event shouldn’t mean guessing race times or standing in one place with a single continuous recording. Built for cross-country meets, track events, road races, and triathlons, RecordTime lets you move freely around the course while keeping one continuous race clock across every clip. Arm the sound-activated stopwatch before the race and RecordTime will listen for the starter pistol, starting the clock automatically when it detects the shot. You can enter your distance from the starter so the app can compensate for the time it takes sound to reach your phone. Prefer hands-on control? You can still start the clock manually at any time. Move from vantage point to vantage point and record only the moments that matter. Every clip displays the same continuous elapsed race time, making it easy to share split updates with family or preserve the entire race-day story in a finished highlight reel. Key Features • Sound-Activated Race Start: Arm the stopwatch and let the sound of the starter pistol begin the race clock automatically. • Sound-Travel Compensation: Enter your distance from the starting line, and RecordTime adjusts for the estimated time it takes the sound to reach your phone. • Manual Start Option: Start the clock yourself whenever sound activation isn’t needed or conditions make it impractical. • Continuous On-Screen Time Overlay: Burns the elapsed race time directly into every video frame, so runners, coaches, and viewers can see when each moment occurred. • Mobility-First Workflow: Stop recording and pocket your phone while moving between mile markers, turns, or the finish chute. The race clock keeps running and remains synchronized. • Instant Individual Clip Sharing: Send short progress clips to friends and family so they can follow the competition split by split from home. • One-Tap Highlight Reels: Stitch clips from the event into one seamless, chronological race video with continuous time overlays. • 100% On-Device and Private: Clip rendering and video stitching happen locally on your iPhone. No cloud login, account setup, or data tracking. Never miss a split or lose the story between the starting line and the finish chute. Capture race day the way it really happens. Choose the Right Version for Race Day Whether you’re capturing quick race updates to send home or building a complete meet film, RecordTime gives you the tools to document every stride with continuous, synchronized timing. RecordTime Free Get the essential tools needed to capture the most important moments: • Sound-Activated or Manual Timing: Start the continuous race clock automatically with the starter pistol or manually with a tap. • 1080p HD Capture: Record clear race footage with a persistent on-screen clock. • 5-Clip Highlight Reels: Stitch up to five race segments into one continuous video. • Original-Quality Sharing: Export and share clips at their original capture resolution. • Watermarked Exports: The free version includes a centered watermark on exported videos. RecordTime Pro Unlock the full power of race-day filmmaking: • 4K Ultra HD and 1080p Recording: Capture your athlete in crisp 4K Ultra HD or 1080p HD. • Unlimited Clip Stitching: Combine as many splits, turns, and finish-line passes as you want into one complete chronological race reel. • Flexible Sharing Sizes: Create lightweight copies for faster sharing at crowded events. Choose 720p HD, 540p, 480p MMS, or original quality. • iCloud Sync: Your clips are synced to your iCloud account and available on your Mac for further editing with other video editors. • Watermark-Free Exports: Keep your finished videos clean and focused on your athlete. • Custom Timer Colors: Choose the timer color that works best for your footage. Sound-activated timing uses acoustic detection and is not a replacement for official electronic race timing.
