Never lose count of your catches again! Track what you're catching, where you're catching it, and who's catching it. Fish counter is an easy-to-use counting and logging utility app designed to track fish and species counts. Use it as a simple counter to keep track of all catches for the trip or add each angler to track individual catches. You can even add different species of fish to each person to track what they're catching. Each counter will show you the total from the trip, total for each person, and the number of species on your stringer. If you want to log more about your catch you can add a picture, its length and weight, the tackle and bait you used, and GPS coordinates so you know where you caught it. A catch count can be added from every screen so it's easy to keep track from anywhere in the app. Don't worry, your favorite fishing spots remain your secret! Your fishing logs are stored locally on your device and backed up in your own iCloud drive. Only you can share your catch data with others. We do not track you or your information. Upgrade to Fish Counter Premium and get distraction-free counting. Relative Logic, Inc. strives to make the best apps it can, but sometimes bugs make it into production.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Fish Counter App at none against Fish Counter's 5. Fish Counter App also leads on review sentiment (50% vs 25%) and device support (3 vs 1). Fish Counter's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 10 months). On price there is nothing between them.
