### 2/5 — Basically worthless.

*2025-07-21, version 1.13*

First bug and it doesn’t tell me anything. It identified a beetle as an ant

### 5/5 — Not sketchy at all

*2024-01-05*

No lag, goes straight to taking pictures.

### 1/5 — Arnaque!

*2023-08-29*

Ne fonctionne pas!

### 1/5 — Couldn’t identify small beetle

*2023-08-26*

The camera seems to only be able to pick larger insects up. If you’re trying to identify something like a small beetle, you won’t be able to. There’s also no info about the app to review while your in the app.

### 1/5 — 0

*2023-08-10*

3 insectes différents testés et 0 indentification.

### 2/5 — Must be doing it wrong

*2023-05-16, version 1.7*

I use several ID apps successfully but not this one.  Have yet to receive a successful ID.  Maybe need to dispatch them and pin them down.  Not very impressed.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t identify

*2023-03-01, version 1.7*

Tried many pictures and no identification

### 1/5 — Unclear how to cancel subscription

*2023-02-27, version 1.7*

The app forces you to pay for a subscription to use it, but doesn’t make clear how to cancel that subscription

### 1/5 — Not known

*2023-01-26*

This app cannot identify my problem bug  , I will cancel my subscription asap

### 2/5 — Not quite what I had hoped

*2023-01-17, version 1.7*

I should have read the ratings before jumping on this app
