Fully offline-capable

Vaal Dam, Pongolapoort, Loskop — great fishing spots don't always have great signal. BiteNet works everywhere.

1
📷
Log your catch as normal
Photo, weight, species, GPS — everything works. Phone GPS doesn't need mobile data.
2
💾
Saves to device instantly
A small orange offline indicator appears — you can see how many catches are queued.

📶
Auto-syncs when signal returns
Drive back to town and your catches post automatically. Original timestamp is preserved for competitions.
4
Notification confirms sync
"Your 3 offline catches have been posted" — then check the feed to see your catches live.
📶 Works with zero signal

Designed for where SA anglers actually fish

Most apps fall apart without signal. We built BiteNet offline-first because we know that Pongolapoort, Loskop, and half of Vaal Dam have no data coverage — and that's exactly where the big fish are.

Competition entries are timestamped at the moment you log, not when you sync. So you'll never lose a valid entry because you were out of signal.

Shareable catch cards

Every logged catch gets a branded card you can share to Instagram, WhatsApp, or Facebook in one tap. Your followers download the app. Everyone wins.

"The offline logging is a game changer. I fish at Loskop where there's zero signal and I used to have to write everything down. Now I just log on the app and it syncs when I drive back to town."

"BiteNetLens is incredible. My 12-year-old used it to identify a Yellowfish and learn that it's protected. He was so proud to know the right thing to do. Best feature for teaching kids about conservation."

★★★★★

"The analytics showed me I catch 80% of my fish between 6am and 9am in overcast conditions. Sounds obvious but seeing it in your own data changes how you plan. Worth every rand of the Pro subscription."
