Is Scuba Fish Hawaii legit?
✅ The Scuba Fish Hawaii app appears to be high-quality and legitimate. Users are very satisfied.
I'm taking a reef ID class here in Hawaii where I live, swim and snorkel; classification of species and family and the clear photos are better than the syllabus in the class. And the instructor actually recommends this app too. Mahalo nui loa for this great tool!
Perfect companion to the book
I love this app! Easy to navigate and find the fish you want to ID. And I love the quiz feature!
Well done Mr. Hoover!
Easy To Immerse in Local Names and Identification
As a dive pro, this app makes it really easy for me to give my divers a taste of Hawaiian style. Absolutely love how easy it is to find the less easy to identify aquatic life, then tie that in to the local culture. I continue to recommend it to my dive buddies, and it makes for a really good time over drinks comparing what we saw post-dive.
GREAT color underwater fishing ID
Helping me to ID Target āspecies reef fishing. Includes most hawaiian names as well. Mahalo! 🤙🏽
Wonderful App!
This app is beautifully organized. Very user friendly, so it’s very easy to find what you are looking for with multiple search options.
Common & scientific names with a nice amount of specifics.
Well thought out all around. And no mining of app users data!
THANK YOU
Live this app!
I use this all the time after a dive! Since I don’t carry my book with me, the app gives me a portable option on my phone.
Makes it fun and easy to ID reef fish
We’ve really enjoyed using this app during a weeklong trip to Maui. The pictures and videos are excellent. Organization is great. It’s fun to see the Hawaiian names for all the fish. And it’s nice to be able to log and export or share our notes for the fish we see. It includes some notes on habitat, diet, behavior, and identification for each fish. For example, I was trying to ID a particular Goatfish that didn’t quite match the pictures and names. Then I noticed in the description for the Squarespot Goatfish that the dark spot on its side sometimes disappears.
Wonderful app
Clear, easy to use, great photos and wonderful to create and keep your own memento “book” of what was seen.
My new 'go to' reference for Hawaii underwater
I love this app, for the price of a laminated card, I can access so much more info, video and identification of the beautiful fish of Hawaii *****
When ya gotta know that fish!
Saw a fish snorkeling in Maui I could not for the life of me find anywhere to identify, and I’ve got some serious search engine mojo. Was driving me nuts, so bought this app and found it quickly. Love that I can snorkel and come back to review what I’ve seen.
