Only issues are that I can’t see the full fish tank on my iPad, the scaling seems to be a bit off. Also cloud saving doesn’t work, can’t switch between ipad and iphone. If these issues were fixed I would give it 5 stars for sure. ### 4/5 — Some Bugs - Mostly Fish! *2026-06-03* Really enjoyable, easy to pickup, and worth the money for sure. A few minor bugs though. For example, when examining another seller's aquarium on my iPhone 17 Pro Max, the price and buy button on a fish are covered by the reaction button, unable to be clicked on or seen. Also, the addition of a friends list is much needed, I love visiting other players, but I'd like to add my friends, so we don't have to copy each other's ID's. If these changes are made, I will happily change my review to 5 stars. ### 5/5 — Un aquarium virtuel captivant *2026-06-02* Très bon jeu d’aquarium ! J’adore les graphismes pixelisés, et élevé les poissons, et m’occuper de l’entretien au quotidien. Excellente expérience pour les amateurs d’aquariophile ! ### 5/5 — Fish fingers *2026-06-02* You pay once upfront, with absolutely zero predatory in-app purchases or unskippable adverts. It’s just a beautifully basic, incremental tank where pixelated fish mind their own business. No cartoon goblins pop up demanding your credit card just to buy virtual gravel. Pure, unadulterated relaxation that does exactly what it says on the tin—absolutely brilliant ### 5/5 — We can’t connect steam acount *2026-06-02* I think we can connecte steam acount but we can not , this is sad but if your never play befor it is a excellent game ### 5/5 — I’m addicted *2026-06-02* It’s a chill game. Only issue I have, is when fishing with others, and collecting stars for newly found fish, the taps will activate other fisherman, asking to visit their aquarium. I sure hope more gets added, like emojis or chat while fishing. A friend list. ### 4/5 — Linking Accounts *2026-06-01* I first started playing this game on steam and would love to continue on my app while I’m away from my computer, is it possible to link steam account in the future so I don’t have to start all over? ### 5/5 — Ja… *2026-06-01* .. hab ein paar Tage überlegt, ob es auf meinem Handy einzieht. Der Kauf war eine sehr gute Entscheidung 👍 Warum? Sehr entspannt, auf deutsch, sieht toll aus, sehr stimmungsvoll vertont. Mir gefällt es richtig gut, wird mich bestimmt lange begleiten 😊 Macht Spaß seine Fischwelt entspannt ein zu richten. Fast selbsterklärend und intuitiv zu spielen. Sehr schön gemacht, würde ich wieder kaufen 👍Empfehlung! Wunderschönes Spiel! Wird mit dem Fortschritt immer schöner 👍😊Sehr fair, einmal kaufen… fertig! ### 5/5 — lovely port of the game ❤️ *2026-06-01* i actually quite like having a new save to grind out on mobile while out and about and having basically all the newest content immediately is awesome ### 4/5 — Req: link app and steam *2026-06-01* First of all, love the game—it’s my new favorite thing. But it does need a major change: allow us to play our aquariums from Steam on the mobile game! Disappointed that I have to do all my progress/achievements again. Please :) ### 5/5 — Beautiful Game! *2026-05-31* My Boyfriend Made Me Download This…. Love This Game! ### 4/5 — LET US LINK STEAM otherwise *2026-05-30* Very good and easy to navigate port. One thing is missing…. Let us link between steam and mobile using user id. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Nothing Works *2026-06-12* Can’t do anything with this app…nothing opens ! ### 1/5 — Can't listen to ANY background audio while playing *2026-06-08* Game is rather enjoyable minus the fact that, even with ringtone and SFX disabled, the game will mute any external audio from your device as soon as you open/switch to the app. This means no listening to music or a podcast while playing the game, you either listen to the extremely grating default sound effects, or you play it in silence. Since this isn't even something I can get refunded for, I just ask that the devs fix the issue considering how easy it would be to do so. **Developer response:** Hello! Sorry about the inconvenience, and thank you for letting us know! We have fixed this in the latest version of the game (0.0.79). Thank you for playing! Egon ### 1/5 — Buggy *2026-06-04* Bad ### 1/5 — Can’t play game help *2026-05-30, version 1.0.2* I paid money for this game and when I log on I’m unable to do anything. I can’t click on anything and the tutorial won’t come up. ### 1/5 — Tiny Aquarium Mobile *2026-05-29* This game is not working, iPad(A16); have redownloaded several times, opening screen is an empty tank with wording to the left about Tutorial Title explanation, icons on the bottom do nothing when pushed, icons at the top open with empty lists, go fish goes somewhere but says you can’t keep anything the tank is full. ### 2/5 — Buggy *2026-07-09* Sometimes the sounds work, sometimes they don’t. But it seems like they usually don’t. ### 3/5 — Please Allow Music in background *2026-06-02* Love the game and I want to play at the gym but every time I open the app it stops my music **Developer response:** Hello, Thank you for the suggestion! We implemented it in the last update. Kind regards, Egon ### 3/5 — Tiny Aquarium Mobile *2026-06-01* This game is not working, iPad(A16); have redownloaded several times, opening screen is an empty tank with wording to the left about Tutorial Title explanation, icons on the bottom do nothing when pushed, icons at the top open with empty lists, go fish goes somewhere but says you can’t keep anything the tank is full. UPDATE: Monday morning tried downloading one more time, game is finally working on the iPad, smooth mechanics, clear instructions and as always love the pixelated game aspect. After Monday morning update and playing for a few minutes now the game is no longer working AGAIN same problems mentioned above; don’t know the reasoning but I’ll just seek a refund. Good luck to the ones who have a working game it looked nice for 10 minutes. ### 3/5 — Cross progression??? *2026-05-29* Please add cross progression with steam, i was really excited about this app so i could take care of my fish when im away at work. A little disappointed, please add this soon😁 ### 4/5 — Wish It Clarified No Crossprofiles *2026-07-17* I only got it to link it to my Steam account so I could check on my fish while at work, but after being unable to find something to link it and going hunting through Discord and Reddit, the developers have opted not to allow cross-platform single profiles and instead each is its own separate instance. I was willing to pay $5 for the convenience of checking my fish while on break at work, but I’m not interested in trying to keep up two separate games. From what little I saw it does look just like the steam version, and if I had bought it here rather than on steam I’d have the same thought, only opposite. If the developer changes their mind an allows cross-platform profiles - one through steam on the computer and here in the app - I would be happy to purchase this again. Unfortunately, as I don’t want to manage two sets, I’ve requested a refund (no hate to the devs, y'all absolutely do not have to crossprofile if you don’t wanna!) my only recommendation is to have a note across the top of the details this is not compatible with saves in Steam. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Brought me to my Childhood *2026-07-20* Upon hearing that the mobile version was coming out I knew I had to download it. Keep up the good work Lunheim Team! I love it ❤️ ### 5/5 — In my opinion *2026-07-01* I love this game and the fish are amazing but I think it needs to have a thing where you can trade fish with other people to and you should also have the ability for when you don’t have any more fish and money you can’t do anything but I did get out of that great game ### 5/5 — Addicting and far better than any other game like it. *2026-06-25* No in app purchases or ads to be found. It’s a fun, relaxing game with loads of content and with events always being cycled, you never run out of things to do. I especially love that you can play at your own pace, whether that means just logging in a couple times a day to collect coins and do a little bit of decorating, to spending hours at a time fishing for unique fish and curating the perfectly themed tank. It’s a 10/10 from me, and as a person who has spent 15 years chasing the feeling of being 10 and discovering Fish Tycoon for the first time, I’ve tried a LOT of similar games, both on console and mobile. This is by far my favorite. I’ve had it on Steam since the first couple weeks of release, and the mobile port is absolutely just as good. I can’t recommend it enough. (Seriously, everyone is sick of me recommending it) ### 5/5 — Chill game to kill time *2026-06-25* I love this game I saw it on steam a while ago and I finally got it on mobile. It’s a chill game where you can collect a bunch of fish and make an aquarium. I think it’s just missing a widget so you can see your tank live or at least a snapshot of what’s going on. ### 5/5 — Spiel zum immer wieder reinschauen *2026-06-21* Das Spiel ist super für Menschen, die ein Spiel wollen, bei dem man ein paar mal am Tag reinschauen kann und einfach relaxen kann. Ich liebe das Konzept und es ist auch wunderschön und mit Liebe umgesetzt. Es lohnt sich einfach zu 1000% einmal etwas zu Zahlen und ein gutes Spiel zu haben, als seine Zeit mit Werbung und extrem langen warte Zeiten zu verschwenden. Ich würde es direkt noch mal kaufen ❤️ ### 5/5 — Entspannung pur - jeden Cent wert. *2026-06-14* Ich habe etwas überlegt ob ein Aquarium auf dem IPhone was für mich ist, aber das Spiel ist echt der Hammer. Ich liebe das entspannte spielen, züchten oder angeln. Oder ich schau einfach den Fischen etwas zu. Der Bildschirmschoner Modus macht auch was her. Pixeloptik ist perfekt dafür gemacht. 👍🏻🤩 Absolute Empfehlung! ### 5/5 — Lovely relaxing game *2026-06-14* Been playing for about a week and I’m addicted. It’s fun decorating your tanks and trying to get the fish you want. Very relaxing and I could play for hours ### 5/5 — I love this game I been waiting for this to come out on mobile for awhile *2026-06-13* This is my first time playing Tiny Aquarium I wanted to buy on stream but my part just didn’t trust the credit card So I just wait until it came out and already love the game especially the art style is so cute and I like how we players don’t get the same random fish is like gacha games you don’t know what you get until you hatch the fishes. Also I was thinking maybe added chat box we’re players can chat while also watch the fishes not just fishing but when the fishes are in the tank and we can just chat with players and we get added players as friends like send them friends requests and wait until they accept our friend’s request. Just two thoughts oh before I forget where some fish can have powers like in many pets games and their children can also have magic or whatever is called their have unique abilities and not all fishes have them. Just random thoughts for the interesting game 🥰😅 ### 5/5 — I’ve been waiting on this game *2026-06-12* I saw this game and bought it because it looked like it was right up my alley. After playing for several hours, I learned the game was originally a PC game. I immediately purchased it on Steam as well. The Steam and iOS game do not sync but that’s okay, I prefer it that way. Some minor bugs but overall still a blast!! You will not regret your purchase if you like these types of games, I promise. Bug: On iPad, the shell shop is not available, but on iPhone it is. ### 5/5 — This game is addictive *2026-06-12* I have tiny aquarium on steam and absolutely love it, was sooo excited to get a mobile version. I truly have encountered zero bugs and it’s so fun. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
