### 4/5 — Good app, but major issues

*2021-10-03, version 8.3.3*

I love this app, but it has some issues.
1. You should be able to insert a photo of your wildflower to get close matches if you don’t know what it is.
2. Make the print bigger
3. Label areas where a certain thing has been seen more clearly.
4. On the criteria thing, with the map, it won’t let me select my location to narrow results down.

If you can fix any of these, please do.

### 5/5 — Great on a hike

*2021-05-07, version 8.2.1*

Easier than carrying a book. I have my phone with me anyway, so I used this app on a hike to identify wildflowers. It was easy to use and gave accurate results. I appreciate that it’s specific to my Ohio home.

### 5/5 — Phenomenal Resource

*2017-06-18, version 5.2*

Extremely useful and intuitive to navigate. Essentially a free mobile field guide. Thanks so much for making and continuing to support this app.
