Constantly disconnects/refuses to connect
No matter if it’s 2 feet in front of me or 20 feet away, this thing RARELY works. I’ve stopped using it, you waste TONS of time trying to get this thing to work properly. I’d rather be fishing instead of messing on my phone troubleshooting. When it DOES decide to work (for 2 minutes until it randomly disconnects from my phone) it seems to give false readings. I’ve had it show fish in a swimming pool. Overall, this piece of junk + junk app is a complete waste of time and money.Show lessEthanc19
Great for Dock Fishing
It works great and is a lot of fun. Haven’t encountered any of the issues other reviewers have had. Only issue is with my older iPad screen brightness but the app can be run in dark mode which is excellent.Sanwir
It does what it should, one suggestion
I’ll probably write more reviews in the future because this does seem like a simple dashboard with simple controls.
One thing I find kind of bothersome that I think should be implemented in the next update is keeping the screen from auto locking when you are waterbed mapping. I mean seriously, the phone already does this when you’re watching a video or movie. It’s kind of annoying to have to go into their phone settings and keep it from going to sleep every 10 seconds.
I click auto mapping, and I’m trying to see the screen while I’m using my hands to handle the reel, but I have to stop every 10 seconds and click the screen to keep it from falling asleep.
Please fix this in the next update! Thx!Show lessWilliam Price
Dock Fishing
Haven’t used for anything but fishing off our dock. Fun to use and see fish but obviously doesn’t guarantee a fish bite.Manduchie
It Works!
We love iBobber. Always in my tackle box when bank fishing. A little fish finder on the go. Also, please continue to update the app. I was glad to see an update this week. Good product!Unreconstructed
App crashes
I have a new iPhone & iPad. When I click connect for my iBobber the app closes as soon as it says connected. I open the app back up & iBobber is not connected. I try to repeat & same result. It does it on both the iPhone & iPad!ognivoj
Could not register
Well I really wanted to like this product but since purchasing as a Christmas gift, we can’t even register for an account to use the darn thing! We get a “Could Not Register. Server problem. Try again in a few minutes.” Well it’s been MANY attempts through the MANY minutes since Christmas. We have tried deleting the app to re download it. Tried on an android and apple phone, and still get the same message. I guess I just bought an expensive paper weight!Show lessTFTtjt
Bummer…
I really wanted to like this but it periodically asks you to enter the purchase date every 40 seconds. After clicking “do not ask again” it begins to ask every 20 seconds. After about the 20th time entering my purchase date, i promptly disconnected from the ibobber and began to enjoy my fishing trip.
The hardware seems decent, but the software makes this virtually unusable.Show lessReuben-1
Not good
This device will only connect inside your house once you step out of your house then it will just buffer over and over and over for a long time. And I’ve tried and tried and tried to make it work with this product is just a useless bobberand zero fish
Completely fake
I have a pond at my house so I used it to setup there are no fish I know the depth and what the bottom looks like it it’s crystal clear and no rocks or plants or deep holes. So when I set it up it’s about 4-6 ft off when it reads depth I was also suprised to find out I have multiple ghost fish in my pond!! it says there are multiple fish under 15 in and 1 over 15 in it and I can clearly see no fish! It says I have 2 big ledges that go up 4ft but it’s a flat bottom it just makes up stuff and people that have no idea whats in the water at a lake or river with low visibility probably believe what they are seeing. That’s not cool! It’s completely wrong! Don’t buy it save some $ get a better setup!Show lessbcjmge
