For many insects this probably isn’t a big deal, but it would be best to leave ID’s at a higher taxon level like family or genus if it is just going to make inaccurate species ID’s. I was pleasantly surprised with the accuracy of some ID’s such as a least skipper photo I posted, but it also gets other obvious and distinctive insects such as the Coral hairstreak wrong (I study butterflies so that is largely what I tested). As far as accuracy goes, it is hit or miss. For example, if I post a photo that is only identifiable to family level, it will always attempt a species ID anyway. Like many ID apps, it will often try to identify to a level not possible from the photo, resulting in misinformation. It really feels like you have your own little collection made by you.Īn ok app. I also love how you can look back on all your identifications and pictures you have. (It’s what I do!) I use this app to get my identifications and then do further research. I cannot recommend this app enough.įor those saying this app doesn’t give enough information about species- you can always look them up and learn more as well as how to deal with pests. I’ve been able to identify so many spiders including crab spiders, orb weavers and a species of harvestmen I didn’t even know existed! This app also has all ladybug identifications and has helped me identify many different species. I really love using this and learning more and more about bugs. I’ve successfully identified many insects on this app and it even helped me realize that the butterflies I was finding weren’t painted ladies, but a different species. I’m considering buying a subscription because I use this app so often as a gardener! For example, today I was able to identify some green lacewing larvae that were helping my garden rid of aphids. Very great app even without subscription!Īlthough without buying a subscription, you get many popups, you can easily press “continue with limited version”. So basically this app needs our help to fill this apps glossy up! If this app is globally placed, we may even find a new species of arachnid or insect if we’re lucky! So that is why I want to give it a 5 but maybe as we add more constant, it’ll change. There is this place called a library which hold so much information, I’m sure if your a true hobbyists, you’ll find your answer there, then add it!) Without knowing just how tough if not impossible it is to acquire everything! You may want to rate it with less! However, the fact that this app knows this, explaining this and other great facts inside, helps you realize this app just hasn’t been finished! It’s constantly asking for new material or correct what you believe it is. this came very close, I like the concept, the app is user friendly however it lacks a glossy of bugs I tried to identify. … what I mean is, I try reserving 5 stars for apps that are close to flawless in providing the service I bought it for.
