  • Great app for finding new fishing spots and connecting with other anglers.
  • Provides detailed information about fishing locations, fish species, and bait used.
  • Community feature allows sharing of catches and learning fishing techniques from others.
  • Most useful features are now locked behind an expensive subscription paywall, making the free version nearly useless.
  • The app has many bugs and frequent crashes, including login issues and failure to load data.
  • Inaccurate or misleading location data, including fishing spots on private or inaccessible properties, causing wasted time and frustration.
  • monetization
    33 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users overwhelmingly view the app's monetization as a cash grab, criticizing the heavy presence of ads combined with expensive premium subscriptions that offer limited benefits. Many prefer an ad-supported free version with an option to pay to remove ads rather than forced subscriptions. While some acknowledge the app's quality when premium, the excessive ads and high costs detract significantly from the experience.

    • “And the best part is there is no ads.”
    • “What could have made the hobby more accessible has been turned into a cash grab.”
    • “This feels like a cash grab rather than an effort to improve the app.”
    • “$19.99 for three months is kind of steep especially when you're also serving ads.”
  • stability
    26 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The app is frequently criticized for being buggy, slow, and unstable, with common issues including crashes, freezes, glitches, and problematic navigation. These stability problems significantly hinder usability and frustrate users, leading some to stop using or paying for the app. While the app's concept is praised, consistent bugs and poor performance currently undermine the overall experience.

    • “The app is really buggy and closes on me every time I open it.”
    • “Slow, buggy, and generally unusable.”
    • “The app freezes, fails to load photos, and the back button often takes you to the home screen instead of back.”
  • optimization
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The app's optimization is poor, causing significant performance degradation on high-end devices like the Note 9. Although it offers useful features, it appears not well-tuned for the latest Android versions, leading to a negative impact on device performance.

    • “Overall performance is adequate, and the app does boast some nice features (bite time, catch records, etc).”
    • “You would think an app with this many downloads would be optimized for newest versions of Android.”
    • “Installed it on my Note 9 last night, and my high-end phone's performance went straight to hell.”
    • “Once I force stopped and uninstalled the app, my phone's performance was restored.”
    • “You would think an app with this many downloads would be optimized for the newest versions of Android.”
  • story
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    User opinions on the story aspect are mixed, with some appreciating features like story uploads but wishing for more customization options, while others find the story content disappointing and not worth it.

    • “Short story: stay away from this app, it's a ripoff.”
  • graphics
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users find the graphics—particularly the topographical and depth contour maps—useful and detailed for fishing, but experience issues with the app failing to load or display these graphics properly, leading to frustration.

  • humor
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The humor in the game is largely driven by absurd and exaggerated elements, such as comically unrealistic depictions of fish catches, which players find genuinely hilarious.

    • “It shows pictures of fish caught in a local man-made lake that are so wrong it's hilarious.”
  • grinding
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users express concern that useful features related to grinding are locked behind a pro version, with some suspicion about data farming and privacy practices.
