## Review summary

Salt Strong Smart Spots is praised for its comprehensive planning and spot‑finding features that help some users catch more fish and justify the price. However, recurring issues include poor performance (slow map loading, lag, battery drain), sign‑up/login reliability problems, pricey subscription barriers, data gaps in certain areas, and onboarding/notification annoyances. Overall, strong feature coverage exists, but reliability and cost concerns are repeated hurdles for many users.

### Pros

- Comprehensive planning tools including tides, water depth, wind, weather, bite score, spots, tracker, and route planning.
- Effective spot finding and logging features: finding spots, marking spots, private catch log auto-filled with tide/moon data and route planning.
- Some users report the app helps them catch more fish and justifies the subscription.
- All-in-one data suite for tides, weather, wind, and hotspots to support pre-trip planning.
- A subset of users view the price as worth it and consider the app valuable and game-changing.

### Cons

- Severe performance issues: slow Google Earth map loading, general lag, and heavy battery drain or phone overheating.
- Persistent signup/login problems: incorrect email errors, spinning circles, autofill issues, and difficulty signing in or accessing accounts.
