Disappointed. For some reason I can not get it to connect to my phone. It tells me to connect and nothing. I have even tried to get help from the app and it says I have no internet service I have no idea what is wrong

Glitches. A lot

No Internet Connection. This is an issue that needs to be addressed. Unit just never connects when needed. Takes 30 minutes to connect then when the unit connects then error Sonar will not connecting. SMH

The app does not work. I cannot credential in the app. When I try to link my Facebook account I get an error. I also get an error when I try to create an account. So I’m stuck on the home page trying to get past the account login requirement.
★★★★★login, signup and account access
App Doesn’t Work. Got home after buying, I’m sure the fish finder works great but I can’t even sign into the app. Keeps saying “Error” and won’t let me sign in. Without the app it is worthless, will most likely return.

Piece of garbage. I’ve had the unit for a year. Actually got it to work once. I can connect to the units WiFi but then the unit won’t talk to my phone, tablet, other phone….Don’t waste your time, money, or frustrations on this.

Signing in. This App is a headache. The page script has to be off, because I can’t even login.

App. Does this app not work on androids cause it will not download and it says on the box for iPhone and android
★★★★★support does not respond or resolve the issue
Great Concept, but the device never worked.. My device appears to be having sonar issues. I’ve gone through the troubleshooting steps 20 or 30 times and have never been able to get the sonar to respond and operate in the iOS app. I have no problem connecting to the wifi signal, but receive a message stating the sonar is not responding every single time it attempts to connect. I reached out to customer service three times with no response.

App does not work. App does not stay connected to fishing device. Login page is not developed, so can’t login.

iPhone 12. Can’t log into app with username and password or Facebook making the device utterly useless. Have a fisherman hunter 3D pro. Think it don’t work with the newer iPhones.

Can’t login. I got this for Christmas and still can’t login. Hard to use without the app. About ready to return and get the new garmin one
★★★★★login, signup and account access
Useless fish finder without app cannot login. Please create a way to use fish finder without having to login it is very frustrating to have what is essentially a paperweight if you have any login issues in the field. Also I cannot even login, reset password or create a new account. Since updating to iOS 14.3.

Time out. I can’t sign up- I keep getting a timed out message

Disappointed. Can’t even get passed the signup keeps telling me error during signup while on WiFi and off trash app taking this junk back
★★★★★crashes, freezes and errors
App never works so I have a paperweight. Cannot reset my password there is an error. Facebook login also not working. Lastly cannot create a new account also gives an error and since the fish finder won’t work without being logged in. (Which you have to do from home anyway) you just have an expensive paperweight. They really need to allow a bypass to the fish finder without having to be logged in
★★★★★crashes, freezes and errors
Bad. It won’t even let me create an account. Just gives error message. Fish finder is useless without app.

★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific
App would not connect to the sonar. Might have something to do with ios 14, not sure
★★★★★a needed feature is missing
White text on a white background?. What more needs to be said? I opened the app and had to create an account, (why I need an online account for a sonar unit I don’t know.) But a white box opened with white text. The only way I got logged in was error messages.
★★★★★login, signup and account access
Cant sign up with email account. The sign up page has no field names on it in IOS 14.2.1 on iPhone 12max. I cannot create an account. Please post a picture of the app with field names so I know what to enter where!
★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific
Sign in. I’m trying to sign in but there isn’t any directions except sign in and it doesn’t inform you what to put on what line. If it isn’t fixed soon I’ll be taking the fish finder back because it’s no good without the app.

Save your $. I have an iPhone XS Max. Says it is connected to WiFi in settings. When I open the app, it says it is not connected. Has not worked a single time.

Unhappy. It is extremely difficult to hook to my phone!!!
★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific
App won’t work. I downloaded the app and when I go to sign up it comes to a screen with blank lines and no directions I’ve tried updating my phone and it still doesn’t work so this app is useless unless the developers can help fix my issue

Zero success connecting. Have owned this for a while and it will not connect via wifi. Have tried everything including floating it in the kitchen sink. There is no ‘reset’ button on the device incase that needs to happen. I now own a $200 paper weight. Absolute garbage.

This app is junk. Can’t even see the fields and the letters don’t show up when I type my email so I can’t use the app

Horrible experience. Could never get the fish hunter pro to connect to my phone I returned the first one got a second one and had the same problem. Customer support wasn’t that great either, The guy was polite but had no knowledge of how to troubleshoot the device.

I hate pesky software the keeps asking you to for a review. ....
★★★★★crashes, freezes and errors
Sonar is fine but the app is awful. No complaints against the actual fish hunter 3D, my gripe is with the app. It never fails to freeze when trying to add a pin on location. Actually the one time it didn’t freeze after trying 3 times, the process felt so cumbersome that it made me forget all about it. It’s not like you can easily view those pins while using your sonar anyways. Making a bathymetric map is cool, but only if you can remember which map you did. There’s no way to name them. What’s the point of maps without names? The most frustrating part though is that the app doesn’t let you view just plain and simple full screen raw sonar data. You have to share half a screen with other information that in most cases is worthless. Yes, the instruction manual for the fish hunter show a button on the top pull down menu when in 3D fishing to view full screen raw. That’s no where to be found on this version of the app. Fix that and I’d bump it up a few stars. Fix all the problems listed and the app would be solid.
