## What is Plant Identifier?

What's that plant? Point your camera at it.

BioSnap is a plant identifier built for people who like being outside. Snap any plant, tree, or flower with your phone and the app tells you what it is - instantly, even out on a trail with no signal.

It's also a real-world game. Every plant you find adds to your collection and heals a tile on a map of your actual city. Walk a different route each weekend and watch your whole neighbourhood come back to life, one species at a time.

Made for hikers, weekend ramblers, couples on park walks, families on Sunday outings, and anyone whose kid won't stop asking "what's that?"


WHAT YOU CAN DO

Identify 500 plants - trees, flowers, grasses, weeds, garden favourites - with a single tap of your camera.

Build a personal collection of every species you've spotted. Like a sticker book, but for nature, and tied to where you've actually been.

Watch your real city turn from grey to green as you explore. Every plant heals a tile on the map.

Get walking directions to the nearest spot to find a specific species. Want to see a wild lily? BioSnap shows you the way.

Learn about every plant: where it grows, when it blooms, what makes it interesting - written like a friend who's into gardens, not a textbook.


WORKS ANYWHERE, STAYS PRIVATE

Plant identification happens right on your phone, so it works offline - deep on a trail, in airplane mode, anywhere. Your photos never leave your device. No account, no sign-up, no email needed.


A NOTE ON ACCURACY

BioSnap recognises common plants across North America and Europe with high confidence. For uncommon species, edible/toxic identification, or anything you plan to eat - please check with a local expert or a proper field guide. BioSnap is built for curiosity, not foraging.


Free. No subscription. No ads. Just plants.
