Good idea but a long way to go….. (2 stars)
This is not very user friendly. I see fish and I see where it is from and I simply still don't know if it is safe. They give general areas and the app basically says where fish is safe and where it is not safe leaving ALOT of areas in question. Ideally, I simply want to search the type of fish and the location it was caught and I want the app to tell me how safe it is in some rating scale of some kind. I am an app developer and this looks

Great info! (5 stars)
Love it! Very interesting and helpful info.

Very Informative! (5 stars)
After reading Oceana I figured I would download this app to help me keep my awareness up when buying fish at a restaurant. This app has been very helpful, and I recommend it to any friend.
