2025-02-04 | This app is totally useless. I took several pictures of the same spider and it "identified" it as 3 different things, none of which were right as far as I can tell since they don't live in my area. | ||
2025-01-19 | very good insect app I love insects when I was a kid I mostly like ants lol | ||
2025-01-05 | First few screens act as a tutorial but then very quickly that changes to trying to get you to just rate the app 5 stars without even letting you try itπ€‘ after you click through the start screens you are just immediately greeted with a screen to buy premium LOL π π€ garbage π© | ||
2024-12-01 | one of the best ones on the market, accurate about 66% with a good photo. no way to tell how confident the ai is in the id. ask a facebook group if you want a better id. | ||
2024-11-23 | What ever happened to apps that charged a once-off fee. Every app always wants a subscription to maintain revenue, but I swear they end up losing out in the long run. If they just charged a single $10 fee I'd consider giving them money. For an app you may use once a month, I'm just wondering who in their right mind is actually paying these guys. | ||
2024-10-27 | It doesn't work. I choose a picture from gallery, then click the check and it just goes back to the home screen. And stop asking me to pay when I've already said no 10 times. | ||
2024-10-13 | The bug I wanted it to identify, tried twice. It showed me a picture and description of birds,,,,twice. Birds! I thought this was a bug app. Boooooo. | ||
2024-09-25 | If I really find trustworthy I will surely support and spread this app. as an Entomologist & Butterfly researcher | ||
2024-09-25 | Has been pretty accurate for getting an ID on critters nearby. The collection feature is pretty neat too. If you have any interest in critters and learning more about them this seems like an excellent choice. On a side note to the devs, any chance you could include premium or an intermediary premium for play pass? | ||
2024-09-21 | I can also verify that the continue as free option is not tappable. False advertisement. Avoid |
