A costly scam
The app will not open. You get a cover page and some frog noises when you touch the screen in portrait mode. In landscape mode you can partially see, but not advance to the next page. Using an iPhone 14 with most recent IOS, so that is not the problem. There is no help screen. Seeking a refund from Apple!

Great field guide, solid support
II think this is the best app/field guide you’ll find for North American reptiles and amphibians. That is from my perspective as a beginner at identifying herps, but experienced with bird field guides. The illustrations are good and unlike photos, are of consistent quality. The range maps are clear and easy to use. The species shown can be narrowed down to only those found in your area. A very handy feature shows you how to distinguish the most similar species, by morphology and range. Multiple sound recordings included for each frog.
Developer responded promptly and solved issue that I had.

Needs photographs
To make this a five star app it needs actual s field photos of its subjects. Paintings/drawings don’t cut it.
Awesome reference tool!
Handy to identify critters in the field. No need to carry a heavy reference book. This app makes identification easy. Limiting options to nearby creatures is extremely helpful. The audio feature is wonderful and helps identify frogs & toads that may be heard, but not seen. I highly recommend this app; both for experienced herpers, beginners and general nature-lovers.

Solid Reptile Guide
This app is a great resource for people looking to catch reptiles in North America. Two things I hope they add in the future would be range maps for subspecies and conservation status of each unique species. If this app has those two things added it’s an easy 5 out of 5 from me.
