Users find the SA Fishing app useful for accessing fishing rules and limits but many report frequent crashes and compatibility issues on newer Android devices (Android 11). The app lacks effective fish identification tools and has inaccurate location tracking when on water. Several users find the interface outdated and suggest improvements similar to other fishing apps. Despite attempts to reinstall, problems persist indicating the app needs significant updates to restore its reliability and functionality.

Samsung S20FE. Can't even download the app because apparently it's "not compatible with this phone". Pft.
