Community Catch Measure

Measure your catch, share it with the community, and compete in monthly rankings!

Updated over 3 weeks ago

This feature is currently limited to users in the USA and Australia. We’re working hard to bring it to more regions soon!

What It Does

Community Catch Measure brings together AI fish measurement and engaging community features, making it easy to showcase your catches and join monthly challenges!

When you upload a photo, Fishbox will:

  1. Identify the fish species

  2. Estimate its weight

  3. Estimate its length

  4. Let you instantly share your catch with other anglers

  5. Place your catch into the monthly challenge (if eligible)


How to Start Measuring

  • To begin, open the Community tab from the bottom menu.

  • From there, you can start measuring by tapping: Measure My Catch, Measure, or Join Challenge. All lead to the same Upload Your Photo screen.



Photo Requirements

For best accuracy, make sure your photo meets these rules:

✔️ Allowed

  • One adult holding one fish

  • Fish fully visible (not cropped)

  • Neutral, clean background

❌ Not Allowed

  • Children in photo

  • Multiple fish

  • Cropped or partially hidden fish

  • Inappropriate content

Accuracy can vary depending on photo quality. Clear, high-quality images allow the AI to perform best.


The “Allow Fishbox to Feature My Photos” Toggle

At the bottom of the upload screen, you’ll see a toggle. This toggle determines whether your measured catch stays private or becomes part of the community + competition system.


If the toggle is OFF:

  • Your fish is measured only

  • It stays private

  • It will not appear in feeds, rankings, or challenges


If the toggle is ON:

Your catch becomes part of the community system.

Top in [Month] Challenge

Show off your best catch and climb the monthly leaderboard!

Here’s how the challenge works:

  • Each fish category (species) shows only the Top 10 catches for the month.

  • If you start measuring from the Top in [Month] page, you will also see a “your rank” note — even if you are not in the Top 10.
