Red Sea Creatures

About this app

Red Sea Creatures is a field guide to the marine life of the Red Sea: hundreds of species, the dive sites where you meet them, and now a way to find out what you just photographed.

THE CATALOGUE

- Hundreds of species - fish, sharks, rays, turtles, corals, nudibranchs - organised by family.
- Every card: photographs, scientific name, size, habitat, depth, behaviour, danger and venom, conservation status.
- And the one fact worth knowing about the animal, not a dump of the database.

NEW - FISHID: WHAT DID I JUST SEE?

- Pick an underwater photo from your gallery and we match it against every species in the guide - photographs taken in the Red Sea, not aquarium stock.
- You get the closest matches with a confidence figure, each opening its full card.
- Blurry, backlit, half a fish behind a coral head: that is what underwater photography looks like, and the answer is often still right.
- Shooting in a phone housing? Then the photo is already in your gallery, and the answer is two taps away - no card reader, no laptop.
- Five identifications a month are free. Need more? Packs that never expire and subscriptions live on redseacreatures.com, and they belong to your account - so anything you buy there works here.

ALSO IN THE APP

- Dive sites with maps, depth, conditions and the marine life at each.
- Dive centres across the Red Sea, filtered by city and country.
- Live dive weather: air and water temperature, wind, and the wetsuit for today.
- Dangerous marine life: venomous and harmful species, first aid, emergency contacts.
- Glossary: every technical word the guide uses, in plain language.
- Blog: guides, species spotlights and stories from the reef.
- Search that understands a description, not just a name.
- Home-screen widgets: a different Red Sea creature every hour, and live dive weather.
- Sticker packs for Telegram and WhatsApp.
- Light and dark themes, built for the boat and the beach.
- Optional account (Google, Facebook, Discord, X): save favourites, share your own photos, review sites and centres.
