### 2/5 — Unimpressed with a frustrating app

*2022-07-20*

I try to publish a photo and the app does absolutely nothing. I was able to post one photo but now I can’t seem to repeat my success. The app’s operation is not intuitive. I thought it was just me but I have a friend who also couldn’t figure it out. With all that said my daughter loves the app.

### 1/5 — Lep butterfly

### 4/5 — Good App!

*2021-07-22*

I have been using this app for a couple of years. It works smoothly and gives good id. I also use it as a portal to iNat. I enjoy seeing everything from everywhere!

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work as well as the competition

*2019-09-03*

I recommend inaturalist

### 1/5 — Won’t take my email to sign up

*2019-04-06*

Downloaded today. And it keeps telling me to choose a different email on registration. It’s my freaking email!! I don’t have another one!! And I see no app support. So, I’m deleting it.

**Developer response:** We are very sorry this happened to you. We're looking into the issue immediately so it doesn't happen to others (it's the first time we've heard of this happening). We will add an app support link right on the sign up screen, so we can be reached assist when people are having trouble signing up.

Again, so sorry about this!

### 3/5 — doesn’t open

*2018-09-18*

the app won’t open? it shows the logo before crashing

**Developer response:** So sorry you had this issue. The bug was related to a new iOS version release. The app worked on the developer version when we tested, so we were all caught off guard when the live iOS update caused a launch issue. The bug has since been fixed.

### 5/5 — Fantastic app!

*2018-04-05*

It’ll only get better over time as more people around the World contribute to it.Highly recommend.

### 5/5 — Clever and Super Unique!

*2017-03-09*

**Developer response:** YAY, thanks so much for sharing your review :)
