Smartout - Fishing 2025 Update
Fishing 2025 Update Alert!
Hi everyone!
I'm thrilled to announce the latest update to our app, packed with new features and improvements to enhance your experience!
In our last update, we focused on re-creating the app using new technology and laying the foundation for future releases. This time, we're adding some fantastic new features into the mix!

What's New:Updated Fishing 2025 Season Database: Once the hunting rules for 2025 come out, there will be another update.
Redesigned Fishing Opportunities and Exceptions: The additional opportunities tab for each FMZ has a fresh design. Click the “locate on map” button to view relevant information without distractions. Try it, you’ll love it!
Improved Exceptions Tab: The exceptions screen has been revamped to list all rule book exceptions with an option to highlight individual exceptions on the map.
Google Maps Returns: Based on your feedback, we've brought back Google Maps with Street, Satellite, and Terrain views.
Map Enhancements: Quickly view additional opportunities, waterbody exceptions, fish sanctuaries, and other exceptions on the map with precise GPS coordinates.
Sunday Gun Hunting and .275 Calibre Overlays: Add these overlays to your hunting map for better planning.
Show Ontario Outfitters: Easily find fishing guides or hunting outfitters near you. I created a form inside the app where users can submit outfitters to be listed on the map. This is the first iteration of this feature. I want to see if there is any interest in it before I develop it further.
Remember My View: The map will remember your state (which layers you had open) and bring you back there next time. A “clear overlays” button makes resetting easier.
Bug Fixes and Performance Improvements: We've resolved various issues and removed unnecessary code for a smoother experience.
Update your app now and explore these fantastic new features!
Another mini note is that I have set up Instagram and a Facebook for Smartout. If you would like to support us and to see updates via socials, please like and follow!

Seems the new update has glitches. Sunday hunting highlights are working but map views seem not to be working. It’s stuck in standard view. No roads no terrain and no satellite view.

@Tom Gobble, that sounds like you can't connect to the google maps.
1. Try closing the app, open again and wait for the layers to finish (it might take up to 5 secs the first time so the maps can load)
2. Try a phone restart (this will resolve any conflicts with operating system files)
3. The very last resort is to try and re-install the app (this removes any files from previous versions)
Thanks
