Original release notes
AI Spots, improvements: the phone finds the spots itself in Live Depth Shading: holes, bars, drop-offs, channel edges, troughs, creek mouths and shorelines with depth; each is rated 1–5 stars, with shore type and nearby seagrass and oyster beds counted in; the card shows depth now, why it’s a spot, what high and low tide do there, fish and bait, and Route here; long-press the chip to filter spots, and markers carry a star badge, with top spots glowing. Trip planning: trip times from the spot card, and a beach start for paddlers; NOAA tidal current in trip times where a station is near; a 3 ft safety line while you plan, routes that never cross land, and Clear route. Reefs and wrecks: FWC artificial-reef cards, and wreck, rock and obstruction cards from NOAA’s chart. Tournaments: several ways to win, a Champion trophy, rejoin by code, and End/Cancel for organizers. Catch Log: all 28 fish in the collection have pictures. Map: faster and smoother, zooms out to the whole US, offline areas offer depth-shading updates, and shading stays steady on slow connections. It also gets a simpler depth card, night speed limits that switch at sunset.
