Get in Touch – We’re Here to Help!

No. Fishbuddy is a completely new app built from the ground up with new technology. It offers more species, more advanced maps, AI-based tools, AR-powered measurement, and a user-driven approach to data collection.

Fiskher and Fishbuddy are separate apps with different systems, and subscriptions cannot be transferred between them.

No, unfortunately this is not possible. Apple and Google do not allow purchases from one app to be transferred to another.
We recommend waiting until your Fiskher subscription expires, and then starting with Fishbuddy, using the 3-day free Premium trial.
 If you’re having technical issues with your Fiskher subscription, feel free to contact us at post@fishbuddy.app.

1. Deleting the app
2. Reinstalling it
3. Logging in with the same account

• Apple – how to cancel a subscription
• Google Play – Cancel, pause, or change a subscription on Google Play

This usually happens when users believe they’ve cancelled their subscription within the app interface, but only cancellations made via the phone’s subscription settings (App Store or Google Play) are valid.
Check your device’s active subscriptions, and contact us if anything seems unclear.

1. Avoid direct sunlight – use shade if needed
2. Use a neutral background – avoid grass, rocks, or busy patterns
3. Take a photo of a real fish – not from a screen or magazine

Fishbuddy uses augmented reality (AR) to automatically measure the length of your fish and estimate weight. Just follow the on-screen instructions.
 You’ll also find tutorial videos for iPhone and Android under the “Measurement Tool” section in the app and on our website.

Fishbuddy gives you access to over one million fishing spots across lakes, rivers, and coastal waters.
The locations are based on local expert knowledge, satellite and depth data, and AI analysis. You can search by species or water type to find areas that match your preferences.
