However, recurring issues include unreliable identification, heavy ads and subscription billing, region limitations, and camera/app performance problems. The strongest positives are access to tide, temperature, migrations, and species-specific guidance; the biggest drawbacks are inconsistent ID accuracy, billing concerns, and geographic constraints. ### Pros - Easy to use with quick verification - Rich regulations data plus extra fishing information (tide charts, water temperature, migrations, best times, techniques) per species - Saltwater-focused content and regional data - Useful identification verification when image quality is good ### Cons - Unreliable or failing fish identification across many species - Ads and pop-ups with aggressive subscription billing and auto-renew charges - Region limitations or unknown area coverage that restricts use - Camera performance issues (focus problems) and occasional app not opening/crashing - Privacy prompts and data-sharing requests that irritate users ## Similar extensions and apps - [FishyFinder](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.consensusinn.fishfinder) — 31 users - [Fish Identifier: AI Scanner](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.artmvstd.fishIdentifier) — 640 users - [HookID: Fish ID & Regs](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.hookid.app) - [Fish Check: Fishing Spots & ID](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.stev.fishcheck) — 667 users - [Fish Identifier: Scanner Guide](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.upqode.fishidentification) — 1,072 users - [Fish Identifier](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.fishidentifier) — 171 users - [FishScan: AI Fish Identifier](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.fishidentifier.ai) — 41 users - [Fish Identifier - Fishby](https://chrome-stats.com/d/app.pixoby.fishby) — 64,931 users, 4.17 / 5 - [AquaID Pro: Pesca e ID Peces](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.aquaid.pro) — 38 users - [FishDiscover : Fish Scanner](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.fishdiscover.app) — 371 users - [FishScanr: Fish identifier](https://chrome-stats.com/d/app.lovable.c3c3fbb3feb44037adfc818b63afb9be) — 1,565 users, 4.23 / 5 - [Fish Rules: Regulations & Maps](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.fishrulesapp.fishrules2013) — 567,790 users, 3.28 / 5 --- Source: [Chrome-Stats](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.fishverify)
