## Review summary

Reviews overwhelmingly point to premium billing and access issues, with repeated charges and difficulty canceling. Data quality is inconsistent: depth contours, structures, and hot spots are frequently missing or outdated, and some lakes don’t show up on the map. Bugs like GPS errors and page errors further undermine reliability. The app also appears limited to the US with little Canada coverage, and customer support/tools to obtain help are poor. Overall, users question whether the price matches the value offered.

### Pros

- Map-based lake viewing is a core feature mentioned by users.
- Premium features are available via subscription for those who want more data.
- Some users find value in the app's forecasting or lake-specific data when it works.

### Cons

- Premium features frequently don’t work and there are recurring billing/subscription problems (charges, cancellations, refunds, support).
- Core fishing data (depth contours, bottom structure, hot spots) is often missing or outdated across lakes.
- GPS inaccuracies and other app bugs (errors, map not loading, lakes not appearing) reduce reliability.
- Geographic limitations (US-focused; Canada support and postal-code registration are lacking).
- Support access is poor (broken contact/help pages; slow or no responses).
