The problem
You can't learn to cast from a screen you can't look at. Mid-cast your eyes are on the line, and a phone can't feel a fly line anyway.
What's clever
Coaching you feel and hear
It buzzes when the line would be straight.
A phone can't feel a fly line, so it works out when your line would have straightened from its length and your backcast speed, and buzzes at that moment. A spoken "Forward" comes just before, so you learn the pause by feel.
Shape, not just speed.
Arc and tracking are scored from the phone's position in 3D, not raw force. Each rep is scored part by part (backcast, pause, forward stroke, stop), and progress tracks them over time, so you know what to practise next.
Five casts, taught stage by stage.
Overhead, roll, jump roll, single Spey and double Spey, each with its own motion engine and illustrated lessons. Learn a stage, then try it on the phone straight away.
Coaching you hear, not read.
Timed blips, haptics and 285 recorded voice clips. A clip only plays when it matches the screen word for word, so what you hear never contradicts what you'd read.
Two sensors, two hands.
An Apple Watch on the line hand times the double haul against the rod hand. It learns each wearer's wrist and keeps one number per cast, never raw motion. In beta.
Ready for the foldable iPhone.
Unfolded, lessons and drills sit side by side, laid out around the crease rather than across it.
Drawn for the app
Every cast, stage by stage
42 illustrations walk through each cast one stage at a time, with animated versions of the whole movement.
Behind the build
Stack. React and TypeScript, wrapped for iPhone, iPad and Android with Capacitor, plus a native Apple Watch app.
Native. Seven custom Swift plugins: motion, haptics, speech, audio, keep-awake, Watch link and sign-in.
Care. About 240 tests, and instructors drawn from AAPGAI, GAIA and FFI.
