The world is full of creatures waiting to be caught. Gotcha turns every walk, hike, and backyard into a real-life collection game. See an animal, bird, or bug? Snap a photo. Gotcha cuts the creature out, identifies the species, and adds it to your personal index. The ones you have caught fill in as colorful stickers. The ones you have not wait as silhouettes, ready to be discovered. It is part identifier, part treasure hunt. With 800+ species to find across six rarity tiers, there is always something new just outside your door. CATCH ANYTHING THAT MOVES - Snap any animal, bird, or insect and get an instant identification - Watch the creature get cut cleanly out of your photo, right on your device - Match it to its entry and watch the silhouette light up BUILD YOUR INDEX - Collect 800+ real species into one clean, growing index - Chase the rarities, from common all the way to legendary and secret - See at a glance what you have caught and what is still out there - Catch a species again and your best photo becomes its sticker SHOW IT OFF - Browse everything you have collected as a gallery of stickers - Share your rarest finds with friends WHY YOU WILL LOVE IT - Clean, native iOS design - Your collection lives on your device - No catalogs to memorize, just point, snap, and collect
