Permissions
AR features need access to your camera and motion sensors. We'll request them now.
- Camera — shows the real world behind overlays
- Compass — knows which direction you're casting
- Gyroscope — tracks phone angle for fish-size comparison
We never record or upload video. All AR processing happens in your browser.

Calibration
For accurate compass readings on the water:
- Hold phone flat — screen parallel to the water for a moment
- Figure-8 motion — move phone in a figure-8 to calibrate compass (iOS/Android auto-detect this)
- Away from metal — compass is unreliable near engines, rod holders, and downriggers
- Verify direction — check the compass reads correctly against a known landmark before relying on it
Tip: If your compass seems off on the boat, open your phone's built-in Maps app for 10 seconds — its calibration UI warms the sensor up faster.
