User Feedback
Pros
- Recognizes freshwater, saltwater, and brackish-water species, plus sharks, rays, and other aquatic life beyond just fish
- Large 3,000+ species encyclopedia with care and keeping tips, not just an ID label
- Community forum lets you ask experts when the AI result is uncertain
Cons
- Species-level accuracy is inconsistent — several reviewers report correct family/genus but wrong exact species (e.g. confusing eels, killifish, or shark species)
- Multiple App Store reviews describe difficulty cancelling the free trial and unresponsive support, with some calling the sign-up flow a 'trap'
- Free tier is capped, pushing users toward the subscription fairly quickly
