Not intuitive to use

I found this app at the end of an article I enjoyed. We have a vibrant collection of birds and plants where we live and hoped this app would add to that enjoyment. So far I’m somewhat disappointed with what it says about my recent pics. It doesn’t agree with what the iPhone camera ids and seems to lean towards European fauna rather than North American. The controls in the app are confusing at the start and it’s not clear how to begin to use my pics.

Can’t create an account

Could be a good app I suppose. But whoever designed it made it impossible to create a new account by email. You just can’t click the button to create the account. It astounds me that someone is paid for this and no testing takes place to see if it actually works.

Good but……………………………

Good but won’t recognize an ant in a bottle otherwise pretty good.

Saved me from touching poison ivy

I was going to pull some weeds. They weren't just any weeds. Haven't tried animals or bugs yet but it's great with plants

Clean Design, Great Features

Love the layout—simple, fast, and not overloaded with junk. I've already got too many collections. I wish there was a search feature for the collections area please consider adding that

quickly becoming my go-to app

I'm using this app much more than i thought i would, so i guess that means i like it

So far it's fun

I downloaded EarthSnap on a whim and didn’t expect much, but now I’m totally hooked. I use it in my backyard, on walks, showed my mom last weekend. I’ve never paid this much attention to nature before, now i feel stupid because Earth is amazing

Nature Nerd Approved

Plants and animals in one app...great idea! Super accurate and easy so far

teaching tool?

I'm a teacher and i'm thinking about using this for my class when school starts back up in august. is this accurate enough for teaching school class? It works great for me but i want to be sure it's good enough for the classroom

The wrong animal

I saw a Canada goose and I took a picture of it.it showed a deer and not a Canada goose.i took a picture of a bee and it said it was a black flower…..

Great App

EarthSnap has quickly become one of my favorite apps. The image recognition is impressively accurate, and I love how it connects to a larger community of nature lovers. I’ve discovered so much more about the world around me thanks to this app!

Highly recommended for anyone who enjoys the outdoors, science, or just learning something new every day.

Not accurate at all

I tried to identify what type of snake I had caught and it came back with everything but a snake, I use many different pictures that were clear and some would come back saying it was a earthworm, scallop or a mussel.. I don’t think a snake looks anything like a sea scallop but that’s just my personal opinion.

Solid App

Love the concept, my kids enjoy walking around on hikes and figuring out what plants are what and what animal that was. It has helped us get out in nature more.

Very impressive

Only had it for a couple of days. Pretty incredible so far nice work

Why does it have to have a subscription

I don’t like the subscription. But you can add a price to buy the app but not a subscription but yet it looks like a great app

Not worth a subscription

I rarely if ever use this app at all, I only recently came back to check one thing only to find out you now need a subscription to actually use it at all, and it’s not a cheap subscription either, I’m not paying 6 dollars a month for an app i occasionally use. It’s just not worth it, there isn’t even like a free version with ads like come on

Nice but some glitches

This app is really good but for some reason I am glitching,I can’t snap anymore it dosn’t let me. And at random times it kicks me out the app and plus I snapped a simple dog and it said a fly and cats.

Error

For days I have found the app to be useless. I receive

Error
Couldn’t handle server response

The app was expensive and hope this will be fixed soon

App closes as soon as you take a picture

Nothing like paying for a app that doesn’t work for crap
