iPhone
HookWise shows when the fish are most likely to feed: today's major and minor solunar windows, the day's rating, sunrise and sunset, pressure trend, and wind, on one clean screen. No account. No ads. And the times are free, forever.
THE TIMES ARE FREE. FOREVER.
- The full 7-day solunar forecast: every major and minor feeding period, ungated
- A 0-100 day rating, so you can pick the best day of the week at a glance
- Sunrise, sunset, moonrise, moonset, and moon phase for your exact spot
- 12-hour times, your spot's own time zone, works offline
- No account, no sign-up, no tracking. Computed entirely on your phone.
COMPUTED FOR YOUR SPOT, PROPERLY
Most apps round to the nearest city. HookWise computes the sun and moon for your spot's exact coordinates using standard astronomical methods, verified against the U.S. Naval Observatory's published data. Major periods follow the century-old solunar tradition: the two hours centered on the moon's overhead and underfoot passes; minors at moonrise and moonset.
HOOKWISE PRO (cheap on purpose)
- Live conditions on the same screen: barometric pressure with a real trend arrow, wind speed and direction, cloud cover, from WeatherAPI.com
- Alerts before each window opens, so you're on the water, not on your phone
- A Live Activity that counts down the active window on your Lock Screen
- Every widget style: next window and rating on your Home and Lock Screen
- Save every lake you fish, each with its own times
- Hunting mode: the same solunar math with dawn and dusk first
HONEST BILLING
Everything goes through the App Store. Trials remind you before they convert, cancelling takes two taps in iOS Settings, and there is a one-time Lifetime option if you hate subscriptions. The free tier is not a trial: the 7-day times stay free either way, enforced in the app's code.
Solunar times are a traditional planning reference that anglers have used for a century. They are an aid, not a promise: season, weather, water, and local knowledge matter at least as much. HookWise tells you when the odds tilt your way; the fish still get a vote.
HookWise Pro is an auto-renewing subscription; a one-time lifetime unlock is also offered. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel anytime in your Apple Account settings. Title, length, and price are shown on the purchase screen before you buy.
