Identify fish from a photo, with offline estimates. Species guide, catch log.
What fish is this? Take a photo or choose one from your gallery, and Gillora suggests the most likely species: up to three matches with a confidence value each, or “None of these” when nothing fits. Then read up on the fish, compare it with look-alikes and save it in your catch log.
How accurate is it? In our own test on 200 photos of wild fish, the first suggestion was the right species for 74% of them, and the right species was among the top three suggestions for 88%. The photos came from community-verified iNaturalist observations of 170 species; only an exact species match counted. The test is not representative of aquarium, diving, low-light or non-fish photos, so your results may differ. These figures are for online identification.
What you can do
• Identify fish from a photo. Use the camera or gallery, crop to the fish and check the matches.
• Compare look-alikes. See a suggestion next to similar species and the details that tell them apart.
• Browse the fish encyclopedia. Search 2,200+ fish species by name, scientific name or family: freshwater, saltwater and aquarium fish, sharks and rays. Species pages cover appearance, habitat, range and behavior, in most detail for well-documented species. Crustaceans, mollusks and other aquatic invertebrates are in too (4,700+ species in all). Facts work offline; photos load online.
• Keep a catch log. Save a photo with date, place, length, weight and notes, and mark each fish kept or released. Adding a location is always your choice.
• See your catches on a map and your year on the water: species, catches by month, personal bests, released versus kept.
• No connection? Gillora gives a clearly labeled on-device estimate and re-checks your photo online automatically once you are connected. The estimate is less accurate than online identification.
• Keep your records without an account. Use Android backup, or export and import a ZIP file.
Free or Plus
Free: 5 identifications every day, resetting at local midnight. The rest of Gillora is free too: encyclopedia, catch log, map, yearly stats and backup. No ads.
Used all five? Queue the photo and it is identified after midnight when you are online. An offline estimate uses one of your five; the online re-check does not.
Gillora Plus is an optional auto-renewing subscription that removes the daily limit. Choose a yearly plan, which starts with a 7-day free trial for eligible new subscribers, or a monthly plan. Prices in your currency and trial eligibility are shown in the app and confirmed by Google Play before you buy. Manage or cancel in Google Play; restoring a purchase needs only your Google Play account.
Private by design
No account, no ads, no advertising ID. Your profile, catch log, notes and locations are stored on your device. An offline estimate stays on your device; online identification and the automatic re-check send your photo securely to our identification server only to process that request.
An identification is a suggestion, not a guarantee. Similar species, lighting and photo quality affect results; sharp, well-lit photos of the whole fish work best. Never rely on an app result to decide whether a fish is safe to eat, handle or catch. Check local fishing rules and respect wildlife.
Screenshots show sample identification results and catch records. Confidence values illustrate one result, not measured overall accuracy.
