### 3/5 — 沖縄名

*2022-07-24*

沖縄に来て沖縄名をよく聞くのですが、一致しないので沖縄での呼び方も載せて欲しい。

### 2/5 — 250円！無料のレベルでした。

*2021-05-15*

UI、内容共にもう少し頑張ってほしいです。
情報量が少なすぎる。せめてwikiに飛ばすくらいはしてほしい。

**Developer response:** ご指摘ありがとうございました。UIはちょっと手を入れました。電波が届かなくても使用できる図鑑として作っていますのでご希望に添えなくて申し訳ありません。私が全ての写真を沖縄県下のダイビングポイントで撮影しましたので約１０００種類というのは少なくはないと思っています。

### 1/5 — Dreadful

*2019-03-21*

No menu. Ugly.  Crude.  Only search function.  If I just want that I can use Google. Why on Earth would I bother with such a clunky app?
Worst app and biggest waste of 250 yen I have made in a long time.

**Developer response:** This app is made with the minimum necessary information as a picture book that can be used even if the radio wave of the mobile phone does not reach. All of the more than 1000 types of photos are taken at diving points in Okinawa prefecture, so it is considered very easy to use in Okinawa.

### 4/5 — 量は多いかと

*2014-03-19*

魚の写真や量も多いので初めて見る魚ばかりでした。釣り好きなので、方言名も入れてくれると良いかと！
あと検索は設けてありますが、も少し優しいUIにしてくれることに期待して星4とさせていただきました。

**Developer response:** ダイビングでみられる魚の写真ですので、釣りをする魚とはちょっと違います。方言名を入れることは検討はしたのですが、ファンダイブするダイバーやインストラクターでウチナ―（沖縄県出身者）は少なく、ましてや魚の方言名を使う人はほとんどいません。また、例えば沖縄の県魚がグルクンなのですが、漁師や市場関係者は魚種ごとに区別した名前で呼びますがそれ以外の人はタカサゴもニセタカサゴもウメイロモドキもクマササハナムロもすべてグルクンと呼びますしハタの種類はミ―バイと呼びます。また、沖縄県下でも沖縄本島と宮古と八重山では同じ魚でも呼び方が違います。このように、あまりにあいまいな呼び方を入れてもかえって混乱させることになりかねないので掲載はしませんでした。釣りをされるのでしたら、沖縄県の漁業組合が漁獲される魚の標準和名と方言の名称一覧表を掲載していますので、そちらを利用されることをおすすめします。
