Thirty trips a year.
How many will you
still have in ten?
One photo at the water, three seconds. Riseform turns it into a dated, located memory carrying that morning’s tide and wind — then puts it back in front of you, one year later, to the day.
- No account needed
- Works with no signal
Three seconds at the water.
The detail back home.
A log you never fill in is an empty log. Riseform splits the thing you do on the bank — take a photo — from the sit-down entry later that evening.
- A photo is enough: no species, no length to type on the bank
- Time and place come from the photo itself
- The detail gets filled in that evening, unhurried
- 01
You open a trip
One question only: where are you fishing? The spot you name never leaves your log.
- 02
A fish takes — you photograph it
Nothing else to enter. Time and position come from the photo, tide and wind from the reading.
- 03
That evening, you fill it in
Species, length, lure — unhurried. The window and the conditions are already there, and stay editable.
The Patterns screen — all your spots, five days.
Your log ends up knowing
what you only sense.
You record your trips. The app compares them. After a handful, it shows you what works for you — then tells you when it comes back around.
- Computed on your trips, never on an average
- Carried across the next five days, spot by spot
- Species by species, season after season
Arm the condition that works for you, and Riseform wakes you when it returns.
The evening before, on your lock screen. Nothing to do but get the gear ready.
Twice a month at most.
The older the log, the truer it gets.
The window,
not the day.
A fishing day is not uniform: two hours matter and ten say nothing. Tap an hour in the grid and the app opens the window — tide, range, wind, sky and swell — then holds it against what your trips actually gave there.
- High water
- 8:24 AM
- Range
- 4.80 m
- Coef
- 94
- Wind
- WSW 24 kt
The sample size is never hidden. A rate built on three trips says so, and blank trips count: that is what separates a measurement from an impression.
- No score out of ten, no “spot of the day”, no prediction
- Tide, range and sun computed offline — wind and swell need a signal, and the app says so when there isn’t one
- Looking is free. Being told without thinking about it is the Plus plan.
One window, opened: the reading above, your own history below.
Your spots never leave your phone.
There is no public feed, no spot leaderboard, no community map. Riseform has nothing to gain from sharing your places, and the architecture makes it impossible: everything lives on the device.
In November, your season
fits in one image.
Thirty-four trips, your species, your biggest fish, the month you went out most. Riseform turns it into a card you can keep to yourself — or send to the people who were there.
- Your spot names masked by default
- Species, spots and records that stack up on their own
- Stamps earned on a real fact, never on a streak
Remember it, without losing your evenings.
The log is free, and stays free.
You pay for value, never to remove an annoyance. No part of the log is held hostage.
Can other anglers see my spots?
No, and it is not a setting: there is no feed, no community map and no leaderboard. Your places live on your phone. When you share a trip card it names the area — “Côte d’Émeraude” — never the spot, and no coordinate is written into the image.
Do I need a signal at the water?
No. Tide, range and the sun’s course are computed offline, exact for any date. Only wind, sky and swell need a connection — and when it is missing, the app says so instead of implying fair weather.
Does the app tell me where to fish?
Never. It gives no score out of ten, no “spot of the day”, no prediction. It shows you what your own trips gave in comparable conditions — with the trip count and the blank days, so you can judge how solid the number is yourself.
Do I have to turn on location services?
No. The log gets filled in after the trip, often from home: asking for “your current position” would give your living room. A catch’s position is read from the metadata of the photo you took on site. And if a photo has none, you place the point by hand.
How long does it take to record a trip?
Three seconds per catch at the water: you take a photo, that is all. The detail — species, length, lure — gets filled in that evening, unhurried, on observations the app has already timestamped and located.
Does it work on rivers, or on the Mediterranean?
Yes, and not in a stripped-down version. On a river it is the day’s flow read in percentiles that drives things, with the sun cutting the day up. On the Mediterranean and on lakes, it is the solar windows. Each water type has its own screen, never the sea one with empty boxes.
What happens if I change phone?
With the Plus plan your log is backed up and restores onto the new device. Without a subscription you can export all of your data at any time — it is yours, and you leave with it.
How do condition alerts work?
You arm them: you pick a spot and a condition, the app watches the almanac and tells you. It never decides on its own that a moment deserves waking you, and the message stays factual — “end of flood at Les Vaches tomorrow 7:40 AM, coefficient 94”. Two notifications a month at most.
Your next trip deserves better than a note in your phone.
Free, no account, and your log stays yours.
