1. [R8] onWater 5/5 · US Flow Reports: I love the flow reports and how updated they are.
2. [R9] onWater 3/5 · US Yet Another Fishing App: Effectively useless free tier, when comparing premium offerings to other big players like Fishbrain, it’s hard to justify the similar cost. Either needs a different pricing model or something immediately differentiating it from other apps in this space. Essentially, it’s hard to see how this will help anyone catch more fish than competitors offerings.
3. [R42] onWater 5/5 · US A must-have tool for every angler: As an avid angler, I've tried numerous fishing apps, but onWater Fish Maps & Forecast stands out as a game-changer. Its intuitive interface and comprehensive features make trip planning and on-the-water navigation seamless. Key Features I Appreciate: Extensive Access Point Database: With over 100,000 fishing access spots, boat ramps, and fly shops, I can effort
4. [R70] Fishing Spots 1/5 · US Now you gotta pay for a simple forecast: This was a fine & dandy app. Was able to check best feeding times for fish but now they’ve locked it behind a paywall. The forecast is confusing and not user friendly anymore. They’ve done got greedy and now this app sucks.
5. [R3] onWater 3/5 · US Great idea, poor execution: App crashes constantly while exploring the map and checking locations offered.
6. [R7] onWater 1/5 · US Crashing: App crashes and closes every time I click a flow station on the map
7. [R61] Fishing Spots 1/5 · US Junk. Don’t bother.: Can’t even get past the login screen. Tried signing up/logging in through Google, Apple, and then even tried to make a new account through my email. Every time it locks up or says authentication failed, even trying to make a new account. Gave up and deleted.
8. [R72] Fishing Spots 3/5 · US Catches: Still can’t determine how to set filters to show only recent catches. Difficult to navigate.
9. [R29] onWater 1/5 · US Money Grab: They advertise it as free but it’s useless unless you pay their fees.
10. [R63] Fishing Spots 3/5 · US Freemium: Asks for money, but good non preimium options
11. [R76] Fishing Spots 1/5 · US Now charging for something that was free: You lost me when you now charge for daily fish feeding forecast when it was free for years. You also encourage fishermen to post their fishing spots so you can charge others to see. Do not share fishing information because they will use it to charge others to see Your info. App is now deleted.
12. [R38] onWater 5/5 · US Love this app: Always spot on. Love this app and the customer service. Makes DIY fly fish so much easier. Thank you for all that you contribute to the sport/hobby. Bob from the PNW
13. [R52] onWater 5/5 · US Great response from developers team: I had an issue where the fish-brain app would not sync the changes I made on the app between my iPhone and my iPad. I sent an email to the support team. They had the problem resolved in 3 days. Very responsive and great communication! Thanks team!! Mark
14. [R103] Fishing Spots 1/5 · US Don’t buy premium it doesn’t activate: Purchased premium and won’t activate.
15. [R106] Fishing Spots 5/5 · US I love this app: This app brought me from no fish to catching a fish every catch.This app is taught me lots of good fishing spots and bad fishing spots.Thank you
16. [R16] onWater 1/5 · US Deceptive: This app is not “FREE”. Only on your free trial for 7 days is it free. After that you pay to play.
