Picture Fish - Fish Identifier for Negative User Reviews
✓ Why isn’t this free?If this is community driven, why isn’t it free? I have a question about one fish and rarely need to ask so this seemed like a great tool but I’m not paying more than I did for the fish to find out a more detailed description given to me by the community of aquarists. The automatic description finder kept telling me my African cichlid was a goldfish too. Guess I’ll head to (Free) Facebook for a more sensible community driven answer. Thanks anyway.Version: 1.1.3
✓ Does not workI took a photo of my hand and it said my was a Sandfish then I took a photo of my hand again then it was a gold fish.Version: 1.0.2
✓ UselessTried to id my African cichlids, not one Id even close..Version: 1.1.3
✓ Tun shellShell was identified but no habitat info provided..Version: 2.5.4
✓ RubbishAbsolutely rubbish!!! Deleted this app in 30 seconds! Doesn't know anything about fish!.Version: 2.5.3
✓ Terrible app is an understatement!!!Tried this on all my African Cichlids, didn’t get a single one correct and even said my parrot was a goldfish. Don’t wast your money!!! 👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎.Version: 1.1.3
✓ UselessI know which fish I have in my tank, a gourami is definitely not an angel fish, a tiger barb is not a goatfish.. don’t wast your time !!!.Version: 1.1.3
✓ App Takes Control of your pictureSo the app actually works to identify fish. The problem is that in order to share the picture, the other party has to download the app. If you take the picture of a fish in the app that is where it will stay. There should be a download option other than Dropbox. Why can’t you just download to your phone. For that reason 1 star..Version: 2.6.9
✓ TrashThe software is not developed and matured enough to correctly identify a fish. I have snapped 30+ pictures of my cichlids and not a single one was identified as any breed of cichlid, instead they are poison dart frogs, blue tangs, corydoras, siamese fighting fish, and many other species that look nothing like a cichlid. For 30$ a year, this app is an absolute waste of money 👎🏼.Version: 1.1.3
✓ RidiculousI just tried to id a fish which someone has put into our pond along with some goldfish. This fish was identified by this app as ....wait for it ..... a Nurse Shark !! 🤣🤣🤣 Dont think so somehow . Rubbish , and they want £18 s year to run it !.Version: 1.0.6
✓ TrashI put a platy and it said it was a guppy.Version: 1.1
✓ Doesn’t work!This app wasn’t correct one single time, I tried about 30 times 😂.Version: 1.1
✓ TerribleIt doesn’t recognise nothing. Took 3 pictures of the Same fish and it gave us 3 different options..Version: 1.1.3
✓ Wrongly identified fishI am in the seven day trial before purchase and the app could not even identify mulloway which is a very common species. Please cancel my subscription if I am to be charged at the end of the trial period. Not happy!.Version: 1.1.2
✓ TERRIBLEOn all of my fish were not correct I took a pic of my leg and it said it was a type of fish.Version: 1.1.3
✓ TerribleHANDS DOWN ABSOLUTELY AWFUL APP DO NOT DOWNLOAD!!!!!! Took a pic of my pearl gourami thought it was a wrasse then i took a pic of my german ram and it thought it was an oscar...Wow 🤮🤮🤮🤮.Version: 1.1
✓ Doesn’t know the fishAll the fish I have put in here this app has got wrong.Version: 1.0.6
✓ Bad appAll fish were wrong.Version: 1.1
✓ Inaccurate resultsHalf of the time, the answers are pretty accurate! The other half, they’re way off, even if I have a good picture. Could definitely use improvement. Also when you try a picture without a fish it says “no bugs found” instead of “no fish found”..Version: 2.6.7
✓ Rubbish AppCouldn’t identify a Cory in a tropical tank even though I took a great clear photo!.Version: 2.6.11
✓ Don’t waste your moneyWhat a shower of ****. Don’t waste your money. Didn’t identify any of my fish. I’ve got cichlids and it said I had a goldfish 😂😂👏👏.Version: 1.1
✓ Confusing to cancelDownloaded the app and used it for 1-2 days during the free trial which makes you sign up for an annual subscription after 2 weeks. I canceled my subscription within 4 days of downloading and they sent an email that was unclear. I assumed I was confirmed because I got the email but now I am a member for the next 12 months. Make sure you cancel the subscription through Apple..Version: 1.1.3
✓ CrapGot the app, as we had an unknown fish in the tank. It kept stating it was a Siamese fighting fish. It’s tiny and looks nothing like a Siamese fighting fish. Tried it on the Minos and it also said they were Siamese fighting fish.Version: 1.1.3
✓ TerribleCompletely wrong on every clear picture of my fish. Some even hilariously incorrect at times. Not worth even using the free trial as it is so entirely defunct..Version: 1.0.5
✓ Not accurateThe app cannot identify fish at all, I’ve tested it with fish I know what they are and it tells me a completely different species, don’t waste your time.Version: 2.6.11
✓ Not worth money yetThis app got every single fish wrong, including very common freshwater fish. If you want to improve this app, allow people to download it for free for one year, and ask them to add fish to the catalogue. No one should pay $25.99 for an app that calls a pea puffer a guppy, and a rainbowfish a CLAM..Version: 1.1.3
✓ Absolutely terribleDo not download this app it got every one of my fish species wrong and thought my damsels were blue tangs.Version: 1.0.3
✓ RoughThe app did not identify any fish.Version: 1.0.6
✓ Think is a great ideaI give this a 3 star based on the idea of this app but this app needs a lot of work identifying fish correctly. I took 10 good pics of 10 different fish and only got one of them right.Version: 1.0.6
✓ All wrong identifications!!!!Every photo was of the same fish and not one was a correct identification. Waste of TIME and will not be paying for this!.Version: 1.1.1
✓ Jmr1969Don’t waste your money. Useless.Version: 1.1.3
✓ Don’t listenDon’t listen to any of the people that are saying this app works. It does not get anything right although I will admit It has once or twice but that’s it. It identified a peacock cichlid as an Oscar. It identified my Red Devil as a gold fish. It also Identified my Oscar as some saltwater fish that didn’t even look close to an Oscar..Version: 2.2
✓ Requires expensive subscriptionI will not pay $40/year to identify fish….Version: 2.6.6
✓ This app is horribleI take pictures of fish of coral in my tank and it gives me pictures of things that I don’t even remotely have. Please refund my money!.Version: 1.1.1
✓ Poor appThis app couldn’t identify any of my African Cichlids.Version: 1.1
✓ RubbishDidn’t recognise any of the fish in my tank absolutely rubbish.Version: 1.1.3
✓ Doesn’t work, auto charge of$30 tooShould have read the reviews first, tried it for fun. Took 3 pictures none of them were right or even close. Even if the app worked $30 a month is extremely excessive for what’s offered..Version: 1.1
✓ MedusesIl ne reconnait pas les méduses.Version: 2.6.7
✓ Awful!Didn’t identify any single fish. Paid £20 for absolutely nothing. I wanted the trial and somehow they scum you and charge your card immediately instead of doing it after 7 days as they claim, so you can’t be refunded. Absolutely horrible horrible horrible experience.Version: 1.0.6
✓ We will seeI am getting this app today because i just started working at a pet store two days ago with the fish. I dont know a lot of fish so Im truly hoping this works well..Version: 2.6.11
✓ Conflicting views on the type after purchasing from a reputable companyNot correct in identification.Version: 2.3
✓ 5 pics all wrongWe tried this app. Took 5 pictures and everyone of them said something different..Version: 1.1.3
✓ Very unhappyIt took $44 out of my account without giving me the 7 day free trial. & it gave me the wrong fish. I knew what the fish was called from after calling where I bought it from. And this app gave me the wrong name, and would give me different names of fish for the same one I was taking pictures of. I would like to receive my money back in my account. As I was not satisfied nor got the 7 day free trial. Very upset..Version: 2.5.0
✓ RubbishOmg it’s funny how it reckons something has big as a 6 inch angel fish is a Siamese fighter!! Seriously what a load of rubbish 🤣🤬.Version: 1.1.3
✓ Doesn’t workTried to identify a pearl perch and it told me it was a canetoad.Version: 1.0.6
✓ Didn’t know any of my fishHorrible.Version: 1.0.5
✓ Brutal.I have uploaded every freshwater fish I own and each one comes back as a saltwater fish of different species..Version: 1.1.3
✓ CancellationI just wanted to try the free trial out first . I can’t seem to delete it now. Money’s been taken from my account as soon as I downloaded it. Can someone please help . I’ve messaged the support email address but no response ..Version: 1.1.3
✓ Be careful, your money gone without remind you.Would you charge me next year? How can I stop pay for next year?.Version: 2.0

✓ Terrible appRead reviews after agreeing to free trial, tried to cancel but after only 24hrs was charged so I cancelled subscription but shows paid until 12month from now, ripped off. Took picture of foot as mentioned by other unhappy customer and mine is a southern stingray..Version: 1.1.1
✓ Wont get right fishI know the breed of my fish I just wanted to know if this app told me his specific breed he is a redeye tetra, the first pic I did it said he was an puffer fish and the second was an goldfish clearly it could see my fish then I accidentally took a pic of my foot , it said my foot was an Siamese fighting fish or for what we usually call them, bettas . Please fix this app I have tried other items and my other fish but the answer was totally wrong.Version: 2.5.2
✓ Don’t workTried it with my fish and it was way off every time..Version: 1.1.3
✓ Works on photos!If you want to identify a fish in a photo it would work. Not at all though, in a fish tank. It identified my cichlid as a stingray!!!.Version: 2.5.1
✓ Doesn’t really workI thought it would be a great thing, and handy to have, but downloaded the app and took a couple of pictures but both were identified wrongly, I took pictures of mbuna, one came back as a groper and the other came back as a Oscar, its a great idea but definitely needs a bit more fine tuning, also I have found it very hard to unsubscribe which worries me.Version: 1.1
✓ Did not workTried it 3 times on a mirror Carp I landed the other day you could see the fish very clearly and it still misidentified it to be a common carp.Version: 2.6.11
✓ Need more information other then common carpI wanna know all the carp species because the app only tells me that it is a common when it clearly isn’t.Version: 2.6.1
✓ Not for Malawi I’dAbsolutely rubbish at identifying African cichlids.Version: 1.0.6
✓ 100% wrong ID on my fishTotally wrong with every fish I took a photo of, if I didn’t know what fish I actually have in my tank I would have been told the wrong names by this app.Version: 1.1.3
✓ Very very badThis app is a joke :).Version: 1.1.3
✓ Don’t downloadCould u please cancel my subscription to this I have tried twice now and it won’t cancel an had tried to take money from my account this morning sort it out!!!.Version: 1.1.3
✓ TerribleI downloaded this app to try and identify one of my fish (obviously) and I took pictures if the fish multiple times, and it never came up with the right answer. I tried taking a picture of a really easy fish to identify, and This app got it wrong. I can’t believe it..Version: 1.0.5
✓ Pretty poor I’d skillsIt seems to think everything is a Mexican fighting fish. I took a pretty clear photo of a sword tail and it said “Mexican fighting fish”. I showed it another photo and it said “green tree frog”. It correctly identified guppy. It’s a good idea - it just seems to not quite work yet..Version: 1.1.3
✓ TerribleThis app is terrible it tells me my fish are something that is completely different from what it looks like.Version: 1.1.1
✓ Is it supposed to work?I have yet to get a correct identification from this app, which is a pretty big let down since it’s a yearly subscription. It’s not even that the fish I’m looking at aren’t in the database, this just does not correctly identify them. I’ve tried mostly on freshwater fish. Just not happening for me..Version: 1.0.6
✓ Horrible.If I could give no stars I would. At first when taking a picture of my flowerhorn (trying to figure out specifically what kind she is) it tells me she is a goldfish. No. Then having some fun decided to take a picture of myself and apparently I am a Striped Bass fish 👍 then taking a photo of my wife to find out that all this time she was really a green spotted puffer fish 👌🏻 Please figure out your fish. (P.s thank you for helping us find ourselves though).Version: 1.0.5
✓ Scam!Tried the free trial and it wasn’t identifying very well so tried to cancel, but couldn’t. I tried to get in touch with them to cancel but no response from messages and no number to call. They then charged me a subscription. I’m still trying to get hold of them to cancel my subscription and refund but no response. If anyone knows how I can stop them taking further money it’d be useful to know! Don’t sign up to this app!.Version: 1.1.3
✓ Can’t delete my subscription can you tell me how to do it? Absolute joke scam all the wayTell me how to delete this only wanted free version and can’t get rid.Version: 1.1.3
✓ This is trashThis is trash it took me one hour for it to stop calling my guppy a goldfish It’s also trash because it gave me a virus DONT download this trash app.Version: 2.0
✓ Don’t waste your moneyI keep African cichlids and know what all mine are this app doesn’t tried it on 5 fish and it didn’t get a single one right awful app.Version: 1.1
✓ App won’t loadI’ve bought their picture this pack and it’s supposed to include this. But I get a failed message with no I’d when I try to run it. This even happens if I try their trial subscription..Version: 2.6.7
✓ Absolutely terrible!I downloaded this app in a pack and all the other apps were good so I thought this one would also be good, and it thought my guppie was a goldfish! (It also thought my sea snail was a fighting fish lol) Don’t download..Version: 2.6.4
✓ PoorWasn’t getting good results so I tried uploading images from google images that define the species. App comes up with three wildly different results. Maybe the AI needs time to build its profiles but to be charging $40 a year at this stage is pretty much robbery..Version: 2.5.5
✓ Tropical fish3out of 4 incorrect.Version: 1.1
✓ Can’t cancel!!!Please can you inform me how I can cancel my subscription???.Version: 1.0.6
✓ What a wasteTelling me my dwarf gourami is a gold fish and all my other fish was guppy’s 🤦🏼♀️ they want £19.99 to tell you the the wrong fish. Don’t waste your time.Version: 1.1.3
✓ Wrong pretty much all the time…I took some pretty decent photos of my community aquarium fish, and I kept getting different and very wrong results. It said that my guppy was a goldfish, my red tetra was an angelfish, etc… From my experience, this app is completely unreliable when it comes to accurately identifying fish species, which is it’s stated purpose— and I’m only using the free version. 🤨.Version: 2.6.2
✓ Aaron JamesThis is the worst app I’ve ever had it’s totally useless and couldn’t identify a turtle.Version: 1.1.3
✓ Terrible App. It doesn’t work.We tried this app on a fish we caught recently and it didn’t work. Terrible. So expensive. Now that I have tried to cancel it, I have missed the expiry date by 2 days as I have been out of a wifi area and they have charged me over $30 for an app that doesn’t work. Buyer beware!!!.Version: 1.1.3
✓ This app is garbageFirst fish i tried was a Manuel's Piranha and it suggested some salt water fish. Useless....Version: 2.5.5
✓ UselessKnowing how useless these apps normally are, thought I’d try it just to see if it was any different. As expected, it failed to identify any of my fish correctly and tried to identify my orange mollys as goldfish and my white mollys as fighting fish. Don’t waste your time with this.Version: 1.1.3
✓ Worst fish iD app everThis app is completely useless, I have taken many photos of fish and tried to use this app and it never works. It also does not have any regulation information and images are terrible Not worth pay 1 cent for Don’t waste your money.Version: 2.6.1
✓ Rubbish at identifying cichlidsApp does not recognise any of my cichlids.Version: 1.1.3
✓ RubbishDoesn’t recognise fish Waste of money.Version: 1.1.3
✓ Not too great.Out of all of the fish I’ve tried to identify. Whether it be my own pets. Catches. Online photos. Or even the picture on my fish food container. Only one single identification out of all of the ones I have ever done has been correct. I believe it could work. But when I take a picture of a banded killifish I caught. To see how well the app works. And it gives my first possible identification as a whale shark? I lose all hope of the app working. As said, have tried using the app on numerous occasions. And it doesn’t work..Version: 1.1.3
✓ Fish finderCrap.Version: 1.1.3
✓ Seriously?You need to add pleco identification because i put my pleco’s picture in, and it came up as an entire different species of fish. Also, it keeps saying that my tetra is a guppy! I followed the instructions and it still came up wrong, I do not recommend this app for the people who truly want to know their fish species..Version: 2.0
✓ Pretty goodI went on a fishing trip this summer and wanted to know what type of fish I was catching in the rivers and lakes around. I uploaded a few pictures and most of them checked out to be what I caught. However, there are about 3 fish that I have perfect pictures of and the app says they are freshwater drums or white suckers. I know these fish aren’t white suckers because of the mouth, and aren’t drums because of the smaller size and shape. It did identify northern pike, rainbow trout, and black crappie successfully though. Please fix this problem:). Thanks!.Version: 2.0
✓ Doesn’t workIt thought a black skirt tetra was a California red-legged frog. Also it thought my Chinese algae eater was a black nose dace.Version: 1.0.5
✓ ShockingAbsolutely shocking cant identify nothing at all and don’t give u a free trial just takes £18:99 out your account as soon as downloaded it wouldn’t bother wasting ur time and money.Version: 1.1.3
✓ Fish identities appNo good I took a few pics of different fish and all came back wrong It called a shark a gold fish lol.Version: 1.1.3
✓ Feeling trapped in $20 subscription :|I signed up for a free trial of the premium service when I downloaded the app (because it wasn’t clear how not to - I didn’t really want to). When I first used the app, it did not accurately identify a fish for me, so I decided the first day to cancel the trial. I have been trying to cancel the trial and subsequent subscription since then, but I have received no response to 2 messages to their VIP support center, and the email address listed in the app store for support is not working (I get bouncebacks). It is unacceptable that they don’t have a way to cancel the subscription in the app, AND that they won’t reply to my messages. I think this is probably a combo of poor service and design... but it feels a lot like a trap, or scam. Not happy. Will be reporting them to my credit card company..Version: 1.0.5
✓ Doesn’t workTried the app with several pictures of fish, and was unable to get any correct. Not worth using..Version: 1.0.5
✓ Doesnt workTried on several common species of fish in aquarium, got them all completely wrong (even putting some tropical fish as marine!) useless app.Version: 1.0.6
✓ FishI did check 2 fish types to try app. Both were wrong. Wouldn’t recommend this app.Version: 1.1.3
✓ TrashMy convict cichlids are salamanders😂😂😂 my jack dempsy is a betta😂😂😂 trash app.Version: 1.1
✓ Amusing but poorI downloaded in the attempt to identify the species of Pleco I had in my tropical tank to be told he was a goldfish and my electric blue ram was a guppy on the first attempt and an angel fish on the second. Very poor indeed.Version: 2.2
✓ Re membershipDon’t get this app, they take your money even after you have shut down membership before the 7 day free trial plus it’s not accurate on fish species.Version: 1.1.3
✓ Useful app but…I tested this app on a fish I already knew and already did research on and this app didn’t give me the result I expected. It gave me 3 different pictures, which for a fact didn’t even come close to what my fish looked like, and it gave me a very specific name for the picture of my fish but when I searched that fish name up on Safari, the result was completely different than my fish so it was really weird. Although, I did try again with 2 other fish and got the correct results once I did research again. This app is very useful but due to the fact that I got different results from the app than my research, I must remain concerned about whether or not I’ll get the correct information for my fish through the app. Thank you!.Version: 2.2
✓ RubbishCould not identify at all.Version: 1.1.2
✓ NahWhen I take a picture:/ I hoped that it would show me the information but it didn’t I took a lot of pictures-_- so fix that.Version: 2.0
✓ Not able to cancel subscriptionNot a fan of the app after the free trial. Trying to cancel the subscription is near impossible! Can someone help please?.Version: 1.0.6
✓ Very badTried to identify a whiting that my brother in law caught and it identified it as a jelly fish. So he panicked and cut his line and lost his favourite lure. When he showed me photos back at home base he was uncontrollably livid to find that his “jellyfish” was actually a perfectly legal sized Whiting!!! Shame on yourselves for siting on a throne lies.Version: 1.0.3
✓ Not accurateWhat I though was a cichlid all along is apparently a beta fish.. who knew..Version: 1.1.3
✓ JunkNot one fish was correctly identified. Says my Dalmatian Molly is a Japanese Fighting Fish. Says neon tetra is a guppies. Waste of time and tries to waste your money. Use google.Version: 2.6.11
✓ Trash app3 x fish I tried to identify were wrong then took a pic of my foot and it’s an American eel apparently trash app they just want ur money 30 bucks a month please umpire.Version: 1.1
✓ Complete and udder failure ofWould rate lower if I could, apparently my Bruno Aries tetra’s are a guppy and a common Rudd..Version: 1.1.3
