### 1/5 — Could not identify

*2026-08-05*

Most common local bugs could not be identified. Not worth the money

### 1/5 — Requires subscription

*2026-07-01*

Literally the first thing they ask for is your money and you can’t use it without it starting a free trial they hope you’ll forget about

### 1/5 — Don’t bother

*2026-06-23*

This app does not correctly identify bugs, it told me several times that a thunder fly was a black hornet and a black widow so I took a picture of my cat for a laugh and it identified her as a purple butterfly

### 1/5 — Not even accurate

*2026-06-13*

It identified a bug as a black horsefly, it looked nothing like a horsefly!! None of the bugs it told me it was, was actually the bug. It wasn’t even accurate!! Terrible app

### 1/5 — Wrong identification

*2026-05-18*

The app identified the bug as deer tick and scared me to death due to risk of lyme. It turned out to be a house spider.

### 5/5 — Very useful

*2026-08-08*

Very good to get the best out of it make sure you get a very clear angle from the right distance or with the right Zoom because it can mistake the identification if the photo isn’t from a clear angle

**Developer response:** Hi, thanks for your feedback! We're glad to hear that you find BugID useful. Your tip about ensuring a clear angle and distance for accurate identification is greatly appreciated. Thank you for helping others make the most of their experience!

### 5/5 — Fast and accurate

*2026-06-25*

**Developer response:** Hi, thanks for your feedback! We're thrilled to hear that you find the BugID process quick and accurate. Your support motivates us to keep improving. Thanks for using BugID!
