Webfishing is a cozy multiplayer fishing game on Steam: you play as a cat or a dog, cast off a pier and hang out with strangers between bites. There is no Webfishing mobile version in the App Store, so we looked for games like Webfishing that you can play on iPhone. Some keep the shared island and the chat, others keep the calm, silly fishing.
We make Fish & Chill, so it's first on this list. Judge it like the rest: it is a solo game, not a multiplayer one. Every other game here comes from other developers, and nobody paid to be included. Each one shares at least one core piece of Webfishing (fishing with real players, relaxed cartoon fishing, a shared town or island), plays on iPhone and was on sale in the US App Store in November 2026.
The quiet half of Webfishing, without the lobby. The lake follows your real clock through dawn, day, sunset and night, and each of the 20 species bites at its own hours. You upgrade the line from 10 to 200 m and try baits from bread to glowworm. No ads, no energy timers, works offline, and on Apple Watch you reel with the Digital Crown, no iPhone needed.
The closest thing to Webfishing on iPhone: a small pixel island where every other angler is a real player fishing, chatting or sitting on a bench. You sell your catch, buy better rods and fill a Fishdex of 150 fish, plus boots and lost socks. Day and night follow your clock, weather changes what bites, and friends can join your island. It's a separate game from another studio, not an official port.
An online fishing game you join and leave whenever you like without losing progress. You sail between dozens of spots in several worlds, catch hundreds of fish, including elemental ones, and compare records with friends on per-fish leaderboards. Day and night and weather change the trip.
A multiplayer life sim where fishing is one of six hobbies, next to cooking, gardening and birdwatching. You build a home, dress up, adopt cats and dogs and meet other players in town. Pick it if the hanging-out part of Webfishing mattered more to you than the fish.
A one-time purchase with seven years of Pocket Camp content and no in-game purchases. You run a campsite, fish, catch bugs and chat with animal campers, and monthly Fishing Tourneys keep it going. Other players you add through Camper Cards come to visit a shared gathering spot.
You play a cat who hunts fish with a harpoon instead of a rod: drag to aim and fire at fish that keep moving. Over 150 species go into an aquarium you can decorate, and you can relax with friends on your island. Cute, simple and quick to pick up.
Multiplayer fishing that drifts into rumors, shadows and legendary monsters. You fish paradise islands, haunted lakes and toxic wastelands, with more than 600 species and relics to find. Clans and PvP duels are there if you want company, and you can ignore them and just fish.
The classic cozy farming RPG, rebuilt for touch screens. Fishing is a big part of it: quiet afternoons at local spots, crab pots by the sea and fish ponds on your farm. One purchase, and auto-save so you can stop between casts.
A gentle, story-driven fishing game: a young boy wakes up on a tropical island in a heaven where fishing works a little differently. Fishing quests move the plot forward across more than 100 species. From Odencat, the studio behind Bear's Restaurant.
A passive game about Tsuki, a free spirit in Mushroom Village who does as they please. Check in, decorate the house, make friends and see which fish Tsuki has caught. The slowest game here: good for a few minutes of calm, not for active play.
If it was the lobby full of strangers, start with Fish The Web or Fishing Break Online. If it was hanging out more than fishing, try Heartopia or Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp Complete. If it was the cartoon animals, The Fishercat and Tsuki's Odyssey are the cutest here.
And if you mostly liked sitting on the pier and waiting for a bite, Fish & Chill, Fishing Paradiso and Stardew Valley keep the calm and leave out the chat.
Ratings: US App Store, November 2026.
No. Webfishing is a PC game on Steam, and the App Store has no official iPhone version. The closest mobile game is Fish The Web, a separate multiplayer fishing game on a pixel island, made by a different studio.
On iPhone: Fish The Web and Fishing Break Online for fishing with real players, Heartopia and Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp Complete for hanging out with others, The Fishercat for cartoon cat fishing, and Fish & Chill or Fishing Paradiso for calm solo fishing.
Yes. Fish The Web puts real players on one island with chat. Fishing Break Online lets you drop in and out of online fishing trips. Creatures of the Deep has clans and PvP duels, and Heartopia has fishing in a shared town.
Fish & Chill is a calm lake that follows your real clock, with no chat and no lobbies. It plays on iPhone and fully on Apple Watch, and it works offline. Fishing Paradiso and Stardew Valley are also good solo picks.
