User reviews

Please add manual distance input

There are a few trees that I couldn’t measure because the trees are inaccessible. Could you please add the option to add distance manually in your next update? So far very good app.

Response from developer

Thanks for the review. The next version (5.70) that will be released in July 2026 will have the possibility to enter the distance manually. Just press the arrow to the right upper corner instead of marking the tree from close distance.

Response from developer

Hallo und danke, dass du dir die Zeit für eine Rückmeldung genommen hast. Es tut mir leid zu hören, dass die App bei dir nicht funktioniert hat und die Erklärungen nicht hilfreich waren. Das entspricht natürlich nicht unserem Anspruch. Ich würde mir deine Erfahrung gerne genauer ansehen, um die Probleme besser zu verstehen und zu verbessern. Wenn du magst, schreib uns bitte kurz an den Support mit Infos zu deinem Gerät und was genau nicht funktioniert hat. Vielen Dank nochmals für dein ehrliches Feedback – es hilft uns, Arboreal Tree weiterzuentwickeln.

Love this app!

I have compared manual measurements with this app and it is very accurate as long as it’s used appropriately. There is always the chance of user error but when used as described it works well. Would love to have a feature to go back and add a photo of the tree if you forget to load it while capturing the data. Would also love if it calculated the age of the tree for you. Still have to do this part separately. Would also love if it included gps coordinates.

Thanks for the review. I will add the feature to add a photo of the tree afterwards next week. It saves the gps-coordinates if you share the gps-location with the app. It is accessible in the export and the detailview of the tree. // Johan

Doesn’t work

I have an approximately 50-60 ft Norfolk pine and was trying to a good measurement. It says mark the tree at 1.3 meters but there are no controls and the screen was black. I gave the app permissions to the camera and it sees the tree now but none of the buttons do anything. I don’t see any instructions on how this app is supposed to work.

Response from developer

It sounds like there is a problem with the permissions. Go to the settings on the iphone and make sure you have given permission to the app. Then close the app by swiping it off the screen. Wait 5 seconds so the memory is cleared and then open the app.

Works great if you watch instructions

Measurements are fairly consistent with good technique.

However, I can’t get the diameter measurement to work on my iPhone 15 pro.
