Shooal
The diving logbook

Remember every
creature you meet underwater.

Shooal is the logbook for divers and snorkelers. Spot a fish, a ray, a nudibranch or a shark — log it, and every dive becomes a growing collection of the marine life you've encountered, from the common to the legendary.

Inside the app

A field journal that
feels like a treasure hunt.

Serif specimen cards, deep-water tones, and a reveal worth chasing every time you log something new.

The species list: marine life shown as numbered specimen tiles with filters for all, logged, missing and wishlist.
Categories screen grouping ocean life into fish, sharks and rays, marine mammals, reptiles and more.

The sighting reveal for a Legendary Giant Manta Ray, added to your Shooal with a celebratory glow.
The rarity ladder

The deeper you go,
the rarer it gets.

Shooal grades every species on a depth-based ladder — surface aqua for the everyday, a bioluminescent glow for the once-in-a-lifetime. Each tier you log is worth more XP.

Colour reads scarcity — from surface light to abyssal glow XP reads reward — the rarer the sighting, the bigger the entry

One tap turns a sighting
into a keepsake.

Everything in Shooal is built around a single moment: you saw something, and you want to remember it. Here's what happens next.

Collect the rare ones

Every species earns its own card with a rarity tier from Common to Legendary. Rarer finds award more XP and make the logbook.

Browse life by category, by sea, and by region — from the Coral Triangle to the Red Sea — with IUCN conservation status on every card.

Plan your journeys

Line up dive trips with their own spot list, then get a nudge the evening before you go. Tick targets off as you find them.

Exactly what I was looking for! I searched for an app like this for a long time and finally found it through TikTok. It works perfectly and definitely deserves 5 stars.
