Salty Offshore

Watch your spots for the conditions you want, get a heads-up the moment fresh data lands, and look back on your whole season. New • Watch a spot. Pick a condition like water temperature, current, or a temperature break, and we'll notify you when a spot hits it. All your watches live in one list. • New data alerts. Get a push the moment fresh ocean data lands over your region, then tap it to jump straight to that layer on the map. • Season story. Your Logbook now tells the story of your season, your trips, your water, and your catches in one recap. • Overlay Sets. Save the layers you reach for as a named set, and load them back with one tap. Improvements • Faster playback. Replaying a recorded trip and dragging the timeline stays smooth, even on your longest days on the water. • Charts. A cleaner, consistent look across every readout, with clearer axis labels and a current-direction arrow. • AIS. Vessels stay readable when they crowd together, and your AIS toggle stays put across launches. • Share. The Share Map sheet is simpler and keeps the details that matter. Bug Fixes • Fixed a crash when tapping a notification from the lock screen. • Trips no longer get stuck backing up after their ocean conditions finish loading. • Map controls no longer get stranded after closing a panel or returning to the app. • A waypoint you just dropped can't be lost before it syncs to the cloud.

This update fixes one bug ahead of tournaments this weekend. After a fresh install, the app didn't ask for location access, so your boat's position never showed on the map and distance tools didn't work. Location now works as soon as you install.

Lighter on your device, sharper trip-share posters, and reliable offline opens. Improvements • Trip Share — fresh art-first templates, swipeable, full-bleed photo, big species row. • Backfill — stay in add-mode after each drop, so you can place several pins in one pass. • Offline — your downloaded region opens instantly from cache, even when the launch network read fails. • Layers — overlay categories regrouped by what captains actually reach for. • Nav chart — symbol labels sit above land; buoy names appear only at the zoom they're readable. • Waypoints — a focused track always shows its pins, and the pin layer rebuilds the moment waypoints change. Bug Fixes • Fixed a problem where panning the map could write large amounts of data to your device. Salty is now much lighter on storage. • Trip share still renders when a photo fails to load, instead of failing silently. • Render-stats overlay is off by default. • Waypoint pin layers stay in sync on add and edit.

Steadier timeline controls and a wider view of the water. Improvements • Zoom out further to take in more of the map at once Bug Fixes • Timeline controls no longer disappear when you switch regions • The overlay day picker no longer flickers or sticks on the wrong day

New Features • AIS vessel tracking — see nearby fishing and pleasure vessels with 24-hour history trails (Elite, or Pro can add it on) • Shaded Relief — premium seafloor terrain with depth contours and labels that rise into 3D as you tilt the map • Weather on the map — wind and pressure overlays (Pro & up) • Tap anywhere to inspect — tap any point to read conditions and depth, no long-press needed • Track sync — your recorded tracks now stay in sync across your devices • Coordinate & LORAN readout — a new coordinate screen with LORAN TD lines and a region picker • Quick Picker — a faster chip-based launcher for map layers and filters • Season recap — a glanceable summary of your fishing season at the top of Tracks • More fishing spots — 48 Bahamas marks plus additional spots Improvements • Full-screen map toggle that keeps your coordinate and depth readout in view • Larger map label option for easier reading underway • Imported tracks now render rich map snapshots with bathymetry • Faster, more reliable waypoint sync for large libraries, plus bulk actions • Live crew waypoint updates that heal themselves on reconnect • Comprehensive account deletion, plus vessel name and email on your profile • Offline downloads are hardened against partial failures • Opens straight to the map on launch Bug Fixes • Tracks load reliably at launch; corrupt track data is quarantined, not lost • Imported waypoints stay linked to their trip • Satellite mode opens to the full globe instead of a locked zoom • Shared waypoint edits now save correctly • Depth readout holds steady on spotty connections instead of flickering • Corrected LORAN chain configuration for accurate TD lines • Delete All now stays deleted across your devices — owned waypoints no longer reappear after relaunch

Smarter waypoint filtering, livelier currents, and a cleaner-looking chart. • Filter your waypoints by symbol, depth, water temperature, distance, and recency — all from one chip sheet. Combine as many as you want. • Currents flow noticeably livelier — particle motion retuned so flow is easier to read at any zoom. • Map labels redesigned with a clearer hierarchy — primary places read first, secondary towns sit back, distant labels stay quiet. • Crew-shared and track-linked waypoints are now protected from "Delete All" — only your personal marks are removed, never your crew's or marks tied to a recorded track. Bug Fixes & Improvements • Waypoints hide at very low zoom so the chart stays readable • Deleting a track now cleans up the waypoints recorded with it • Briefing text rendering improved (better paragraph spacing)
