Took a pic and instantly got all the info I needed. Highly recommend! ### 1/5 — More user friendly *2024-12-31, version 1.1.5* I downloaded this app to help ID fish. Like most apps I was hoping for a 7-14 day trial to check if it worked for us and its accuracy. Unfortunately it let me ID one fish which was so far off. The fish I uploaded was a Red Bass which is poisonous and not able to be kept, the app told me it was a snapper. I then thought, ok give it another go and I tried to upload a photo and it said I had to pay. So 1 free fish ID that was wrong. ### 1/5 — Terrible *2024-10-30, version 1.1.5* Took one photo of a yellow fin bream and it told me it was a salmon. Then I tried to take an other but it was asking me to pay for a subscription after only taking one photo. I can not do anything in the app now without paying. Do not buy this app. ### 1/5 — stupid *2024-09-23, version 1.1.5* you have to pay to do everything money grabber ### 1/5 — It’s ok you it can identify fish but your have to pay for everything *2024-07-12, version 1.1.5* My results 1 star this app 2 star 3star 4 star 5 star ### 1/5 — subscription *2024-05-26, version 1.1.5* you have to pay to do everything on the app, it’s stupid ## Frequently asked questions about Fish Identifier ### What does the Fish Identifier app do?
