BlindBuddy
Blind Score, Bands & Migration
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Know before you leave the truck. One real score per blind from wind, fronts, and pressure, plus 3.1 million band records and a live scouting map.
BlindBuddy reads the morning before you leave the truck.
THE READ
Every blind you save gets one score built from the conditions that actually move birds: wind speed and direction against your blind's facing, front timing, pressure trend, temperature swing, moon, and migration traffic. Tap the score and it decomposes. Every factor shows its number and its pull on the total. And when something was not measured that morning, the app says so instead of faking it.
THREE DAY MATRIX
Dawn and evening windows for the next three days, scored per blind. Pick the morning worth burning a vacation day on before the front gets here.
THE LIVING MAP
Scout mode surfaces hot areas computed from live bird sighting traffic and public hunting ground, anywhere in the country. Drop a pin, vet the spot against wind history and sightings, save it. My Ground keeps your blinds, pins, and field notes in one place.
BAND HISTORY
3.1 million real USGS band recovery records on a map. See what was banded near your spots, where those birds came from, and how far they traveled. Sixty plus years of recoveries, not a sample.
TIDES
NOAA tide stations with the day's curve, in the station's own time zone. For the coastal crowd that hunts the moving water.
SCOUTBUMP
Pre-season scoring for new ground. Point your blind, set the wind you expect, and see how the spot grades before opening day.
YOUR LOG
Log hunts, birds, and bands. Season stats and personal bests are kept and counted, season over season.
BUILT FOR EVERY FLYWAY
Pacific, Central, Mississippi, Atlantic. Nothing in the app is hardcoded to one state.

2.0 is a rebuild, not a patch.
- THE READ: one score per blind, decomposed into the factors that made it. If a factor was not measured, the app says so.
- Three day matrix: dawn and evening windows, scored per blind.
- Living map: hot areas from live sighting traffic, spot vetting, public ground.
- Band recovery map: 3.1 million USGS records with distance and span stats.
- NOAA tides in the station's own time zone.
- ScoutBump: grade new ground before the season opens.
- Windows now track each blind's real sunrise and sunset, not a fixed clock.
- Faster, flatter, darker. No filler.
