FishPin is designed for real local fishermen — with a straightforward, excellent interface that's easy to use and easy to navigate, so you can focus on the sea instead of the screen.
Grab FishPin from the Play Store and create your account in under a minute. No credit card, no trial — just sign in and you're in.
Pick your fishing area on the map and save it to your phone. FishPin shows the estimated size before you commit, so you only pack what you need.
Drop a pin on a hotspot, tap to navigate, and FishPin gives you live heading, distance, and an ETA (Estimated Time of Arrival) — fully offline at sea.
Most Filipino fishermen can't afford a marine chartplotter or a yearly fishing app subscription — and shouldn't have to. FishPin gives you the same offline navigation, pin-saving, and real-time GPS for a price that fits a fisherman's budget — because only real local fishermen know how hard the work really is.

Not every Filipino fisherman can afford even a one-time ₱499 — and many don't own an Android phone or know how to use a modern one. So FishPin partners directly with local governments, cooperatives, and marine NGOs to sponsor devices and hands-on training for those who need it — because safety at sea shouldn't depend on a wallet.
Quick answers to the things fishermen, partners, and supporters ask us most often.
₱499, one time. That's it — no subscription, no premium unlock, no in-app purchases. Compare that to Navionics (~₱3,250/year), Fishbrain Pro (~₱4,200/year), or a Garmin chartplotter (~₱8,000–₱30,000 in hardware depending on brand and quality).
Download FishPin, plan your route, and head out. No subscription, no signal needed — just you, the map, and the sea.
