I have had for nearly 1month. The ap from day 1 opened to the title screen and then flipped to a blue screen that says select state. There is nothing to select. I figured maybe there was a glitch that day. I try periodically throughout each week that has passed as we live on a lake and would like to see the levels. This Ap still does nothing. I’m guessing it’s really no longer supported and has not been removed.

I'm sorry. There was an external server problem that was causing a few issues. The latest release has everything patched up.

Bob you should reflect with deference on and expand it. For major lake if not all lakes per state. Especially for survival skills and seasonal wildlife activities and rescue option just in case of an emergency or thin ice etc. What to do, be aware of and not to do. How to keep biodiversity viapossible recycle or properly dispose of food waste etc… Five star for effort in my opinion still stand.

Developer Response
Thanks. I have some time to try and expand a bit. I have some features in mind that may make it a bit more universal.

I travel a lot for fishing tournaments. I got this app as a convenient way to check water levels for safe boating and fishing conditions. Although it includes many of the larger more well known lakes I fish, it does not include many of the lesser known lakes in my area... Also some states are listed but don’t include some of the most popular lakes in that state, while some states aren’t even listed! And you can forget about finding any river levels! I just don't understand the lack of comprehensiveness and inclusiveness of this app. It’s so close to being a good thing. Just finish it!

Would love to give this app more than two stars, however we regularly boat on Lake Hartwell which is one of the biggest lakes in both South Carolina and Georgia. When you go to search Lakes by state SC isn’t even listed despite having wonderful lakes like Hartwell, Murray, Marion, Keowee and Jocassee. I thought Hartwell being a very popular lake between the two states would be listed under Georgia but sadly it was not. From what I could see of the details for the other lakes this would be a wonderful app, especially since there aren’t many out there.

Developer Response
I recently added South Carolina. If there is a specific lake that isn’t listed, please let me know. I’ll work on gathering the data. Not every lake is metered. Thanks!

Improved water history sorting menu for better clarity. Enhanced water surface elevation display and refined trend window information. Fixed an issue where range search did not respect metric units. Added many new lakes and updated app logos. Also resolved multiple issues with lake map settings and water data lookups for better accuracy and reliability.
