### 1/5 — App Crashes and Loses Achievement

*2023-10-26, version 2.3*

The app crashes every single time I play on tournament mode. It erases all fish caught when I resume. COMPLETELY WORTHLESS. Do not waste your money on this!!

### 1/5 — Big glitch in the game

*2022-08-02, version 2.3*

Every time I go over 66 lbs The game kicks me out I have to start over I can never finish a tournament because of this not worth the $.99 you pay for it

### 5/5 — Fix It

*2022-04-15, version 2.2*

Please fix this app to stop it going off every 5 minutes

### 2/5 — Not that great.

*2022-02-17, version 2.2*

Glitchy.  I can have several fish and good weight in a tournament and the game just quits with about 3 minutes left.  This has happened 4 times. When you reopen the app, it asks to continue, but all of what you have earned is gone.  It’s also not very realistic as to types of fish in certain locations.  Waste of .99

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2018-02-20, version 2.2*

Used to love this game a long time ago.  Now it keeps crashing.

### 1/5 — Crashes non-stop

*2017-07-08, version 2.0*

iFishingSE, 3, and FFE all crash constantly. The only one that doesn't crash, is ifishing! It's not worth playing!

### 1/5 — Always crashes

*2015-11-07, version 2.0*

Since the last upgrade, the app crashes as soon as you move into first place. Now this is simply a worthless investment. I guess they want me to pay for a new version just have it crash again

### 1/5 — Constantly crashes

*2015-05-13, version 2.0*

Boring simulation of "fly-fishing", and constant crashes after catching a fish leads me to conclude that this game is garbage. Requesting refund. Terrible, don't buy.

### 3/5 — Best trout fishing game out there...

*2014-06-11, version 1.9*

Fantastic fly fishing game with great controls and easy gameplay. I wish there were more locations...and more flies...and just more in general.

### 5/5 — Good

*2013-07-26*

Good
