Ice Report: Instantly Report Lake Ice Conditions
Ice Report is a free Android app developed by Ice Report Software. It falls under the lifestyle category, specifically designed for ice fishing enthusiasts. The app allows users to instantly report lake ice conditions at their current GPS location to other fishermen.
Ice Report simplifies the process of distributing information about lake ice thicknesses during the ice fishing season in the Northern US. Instead of searching the internet for forums or groups to get reports on ice conditions, users can rely on this app. It serves as a centralized platform where avid fishermen and resorts can post and share ice reports for everyone to see.
New reports are displayed in dark color, while reports older than 3 days are marked in light color. Ice Report only shows reports from the last 14 days, ensuring users access the most recent information.
Using Ice Report is straightforward. Users need to create a basic login and check out the map. It's important to note that the chosen username will be visible to other fishermen. While out fishing, users can submit a report by pressing the "+" sign and selecting the measured ice thickness at that location. The app utilizes the device's GPS location, so it's crucial to submit reports only while fishing.
In case a report is mistakenly placed, users can easily delete it by pressing the undo button. It's worth mentioning that the accuracy of the lake ice data relies on user submissions, and Ice Report encourages everyone to prioritize safety on frozen lakes. Users are advised to consult their local Department of Natural Resources for safety information.
For those looking for extra features and to support Ice Report, becoming a Premium Supporter unlocks additional benefits.
