Waste of money

This app does not help identify trees and plants from a photo of the actual tree/plant. It is extremely difficult to use. I would not recommend it to anybody.

Can’t upload photo to get identification

Can’t identify as I don’t know the name of it.

Thought I could take a photo and have the tree identified. Not possible on this app. Searched through the 50 or so recommendations/photos they provided based on my inputs and couldn’t find a suitable match. For me, this was a wasted $5.99.

Hi happiness, the app description does not say you can take photos through the app I am unsure why you thought that? It has almost 370 trees not 311 and it helps you identify the trees using a key as per the description. It also has a lot of helpful information and photos showing key identifying features about each tree which you should find useful. I am sorry it did not meet your requirements. Please check the description of the app before purchasing it thanks to make sure it is what you want.

Waste of time

Can't believe I spent 6 bucks on this. How do I get a refund?

Hi Mr Nathan the app has almost 370 trees with a lot of helpful information and photos showing key identifying features about each tree which you should find useful, and it is smaller than a pocket tree book and a lot cheaper than a tree book. But as this is not useful to you, please refer to the apple store policy on how to apply for a refund.

Do not buy

If you want help identifying a tree, this app will not help at all.

I am sorry to hear you were unsuccessful in identifying the trees. Please can you send me some images of the trees you were hoping to identify? As mentioned in the description, we have more than 350 trees, both native and exotic, which are commonly growing in Australia, predominantly in the NSW / Eastern Australian side. Were your trees located in these areas?

Limited Tree List

The database of trees is very limited, with the first 2 trees I tried to find not identified. Both trees are common, including the northern silky oak. Seems pointless to use any more.

Hi thanks for your comments, there are over 350 trees which focus on the common urban trees (both native and exotic) growing around Australia. These are predominantly on the eastern coast. I am sorry you feel it is limited. We are constantly adding more common native and exotic trees to the app.

Needs more trees

App works well with good content. The tree I was looking for (Chinese pink cedar) wasn’t in the app.

Hi Jamie, thanks for your comment, we are always adding more trees and will look to add this one in the next update.

Pics of Leaves and Bark - follow up

I wrote and earlier review of this app “Need more pics of leaves and bark” when I mistakenly thought that there were no pics of leaves and bark. Didn’t realise I needed to scroll across duh! Sorry. The app is great, does exactly what I need. One improvement for me would be that you can click on pics to see a full screen of the image. Pics are viewing only in the area at the top of the app, but apart from that all good!

Thank you for your comment and glad you found the additional images by scrolling across. We have just updated the app to include full image and a zoom-in element to the images, please make sure you update the app to get these features.

Small knowledge base

Only has a small database of trees. Cannot identify outback trees such a the Mulga Tree (Acacia aneura),

Hi this app specifically focuses on urban tree found growing commonly (both native and exotic). We are always adding more trees to the app.

Almost good

So much potential, could be a quick way to ID stuff on the tip of the tongue or a learning portal for uprising arborists. Need way more detailed info on the descriptions, more leaf shape examples, place of origin or distribution and eucalyptus are mainly identified by the fruit instead of the leaf. Keep going make it great!

Thanks for your feedback! Your comments will be taken on board for our next update.

Very useful App!

Exactly what I needed to help me identify the trees in my garden! It has detailed descriptions for each tree, I especially found the section about whether the tree is a weed or not surprisingly helpful.

Hi we're glad you found the Tree ID app useful, thank you for your comments.

Great app

Easy app to work with. Has most trees included. Option for automatic recognition based on photo would be interesting for a next release. Also suggest to add information about how best to grow these in your garden.

Hi thanks for your comment, glad you have found the app useful.

Firewood collectors don’t bother

Not very helpful for most of the Australian species commonly used for firewood

Response from developer

Hi Dave the Australian Identification App was not created to identify firewood. I do not know why you thought this would be so, so your one star review is very unhelpful. It was designed to identify common native and exotic trees growing in most cities, predominantly along the east coast of Australia.

Really useful

This is a great app for identifying trees, so far I have found it works very well. It will come in very handy for my work

Thanks Eliza glad the app has been helpful for you. We have recently updated it to add another 80 trees which I'm sure you will find helpful.

To be encouraged

A good start but more eucalypts need listing - currently only 7.
