An Aquarium That Fills Itself

One camera, one purpose. Name the fish in front of you, then watch a collection assemble itself trip after trip.

🐟

Instant Fish ID

Hold the fish side-on, fill the frame, and tap once. The species comes back in seconds, common name and scientific name together.

🌊

Species, Habitat & Size

Each result carries a plain-language description plus the supporting details worth knowing, from where the fish lives to how big it usually runs.

🎯

Honest Confidence

Every identification is labelled High, Medium, or Low, and anything worth a second look is flagged as a caution rather than buried.

📔

Your Living Aquarium

Every new species becomes a tile with your own photo, grouped into sets. Catch the same species again and the tile counts the visit.

💎

📷

A Camera That Behaves

A precision zoom dial, a flash toggle, and your photo library one tap away for the catches you already photographed.

How It Works

From a fish in your hands to knowing its name. No account, no setup.

1

Frame the Fish

Open Reel and point the camera. Side-on, with the whole fish in frame, gives the analysis the most to read. Use the zoom dial when you cannot get closer.

2

Take the Photo

Tap the shutter, or pull an existing photo from your library. Good daylight and a clean background give the AI the most to work with.

3

Meet the Species

Seconds later you get the name, the description, the details, and a confidence label. The catch lands in your aquarium with its rarity and XP.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I identify a fish from a photo?

Hold the fish side-on, fill the frame, and tap the shutter. Reel sends the photo for AI analysis and returns the species, a short description, supporting details, and how confident it is.

Can I use Reel to decide if a fish is safe to eat or legal to keep?

No. Identifications are AI-generated estimates provided for informational and recreational purposes only. Never eat, keep, handle, or release a fish based solely on an identification from Reel. Misidentifying a species can be dangerous, through venomous spines, toxic flesh, and look-alike species, and it can be illegal where a species is protected or regulated. Reel is not a source of fishing regulations: you are solely responsible for knowing and following local laws, licences, seasons, size and bag limits, and protected-species rules.

What does a result tell me besides the species name?

Alongside the common and scientific name you get a plain-language description, supporting details such as habitat and typical size, any cautions the analysis flags, and a rarity tier for the catch.

How accurate is the identification?

Every result carries a confidence label of High, Medium, or Low. Accuracy depends on lighting, framing, wet glare, and how much of the fish is visible. Treat the result as a well-informed starting point, not a verdict.

Does Reel keep my photos?

No. Photos travel over HTTPS to our backend, which passes them to Google Gemini for analysis and returns the result. They are processed transiently and are not retained by us afterwards. The copy saved with a catch stays on your device.

What happens to a fish after I identify it?

It becomes a species in your aquarium with your photo, its set, and its rarity tier. Catches earn XP toward ten levels from Minnow to Leviathan, and feed daily quests, streaks, and badges.
