### 1/5 — No No No

*2020-08-15, version 2.7.1*

Ends up costing $6...I say NO! Not when there’s free, easier to use apps for this kind of data.
Don’t waste your time

### 4/5 — Great App Needs Work

*2020-08-05, version 2.7*

Love the fact that I have been able to find and catch everything because of this app. I was excited when I saw that the sea creatures were added! Unfortunately every time I click on one the app crashes...

### 5/5 — So helpful dude

*2020-07-24, version 2.6.4*

Thank you for making this!!!

Any plans on adding on the deep diving creatures?

### 5/5 — Needs driving now, But I love!

*2020-07-03, version 2.6.4*

With the new update this app should incorporate sea creature now too ! 😊 Other than that, AMAZING app! Very helpful!

### 5/5 — Good but missing some things

*2020-06-26, version 2.6.4*

This app is great! It really helps me with collecting fish and bugs but it is missing some creatures, for example the saddled bircher and the mole crickets information is incorrect. Otherwise it is amazing, it would also be cool if a switch was added in to switch from sunny to rainy!

### 4/5 — One problem

*2020-06-25, version 2.6.4*

It’s a great app and i would recommend, but I’ve notice the price for the goldfish is wrong. The app says it’s worth 13,000 but it’s only 1,300. Also, I think it would be great if the app told the prices of selling the fish with cj/flick.

### 5/5 — Review

*2020-06-11, version 2.6.4*

It’s really good and helps me find all the fish and bugs that I need too also has a mode that makes all the fish that you caught disappear so you can only see the things you need to collect. The only thing is that I wish they had an art section that told you the fake and the real versions of every piece of art.

### 5/5 — Gar Fish

*2020-06-02, version 2.6.3*

Gar comes out in june. The app says July

### 5/5 — Best free ACNH Companion app

*2020-06-01, version 2.6.3*

This app works very well, the paid features aren’t something that is a MUST have, and that keeps it good and free to use!

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2020-05-16*

This app is amazing, the only issue that needs to be fixed is that some of the information is wrong but nothing a simple update would fix :)
