About this app

As the name implies, FishPhone turns your smartphone or tablet into a fully functional underwater camera monitor. Now anyone with a smartphone or tablet will get a color /black and white video image delivered right to the palm of your hand. Using Wi-Fi signal technology to create its own “hotspot”. You can share your video signal with as many friends as you like or password protect it just for yourself. You don’t need cell phone coverage to use it, the FishPhone works anywhere in the world.

To use the FishPhone App you must connect to an existing FishPhone Camera Transmitter or purchase one for yourself. The FishPhone Camera System (#FP100) is a stand alone, fully functional, smartphone controlled system that allows you to record video or still images and easily send it off to your friends in an e-mail or text.

The FishPhone Camera System comes with a unique holder and battery pack system that makes it easy to carry and manage 50 feet of cable. The portable FishPhone camera pack system can power your FishPhone for six hours between charging. The underwater camera used in the FishPhone system is a Color/ B&W camera that automatically shifts from color to black and white when light conditions are limited to increase display contrast.

Ratings and reviews

This unit runs absolutely MINTY! I've had it for 5 years now, had it connected to 4 different phones at the same time. I am using it with S9, great quality, nice size, and no issues with the camera or the connectivity. Only issue I've experienced is not being able to access/share the videos in my phone gallery. The photos I can access in my phone gallery.

Am I the only one that has a problem with having to put my phone on airplane mode to get the app to connect, thereby rendering my phone useless while I use the app? And the videos don't download and aren't shareable. Seems like the ball was dropped, with today's technology being what it is. If this is supposed to be upgrading from the old camera with black and white TV in the shack, it falls way short.

Horrible - can't connect with mine or my step dads phones. Going to airplane mode helps 0%... upgrade the damn app so It's more user friendly. I've grown to hate vexilar over the years...
