FishVerify: ID & Regulations

authentic rating

People like the idea, identify the species and get its regulations right away, and the fish info is good. It breaks down on the core job: identification often gets it wrong or does not see the fish in the photo at all, and for an offshore angler out of signal range it simply does not work. Plus everything hinges on a mandatory email login and identifications capped by credits.

About the rating

Reviews are specific: the app confuses the species or fails to find it in the photo even with tight cropping, does not work out of coverage, requires an email login and caps IDs with credits. Five-star notes are short but at times concrete about sharks and species. The large storeAvg 4.6 vs textAvg 2.75 gap is explained by real identification misses, not a burst of templated fives.
