Rock Identifier uses AI to analyze photos of rocks, minerals, or crystals. It provides the specimen's name, scientific details, an estimated value range, and its geological category.
No, an internet connection is required for Rock Identifier to identify specimens as the identification process runs on a server.
It offers the specimen's name, scientific name, chemical formula, Mohs hardness, composition, color, streak, formation details, and typical locations.
The app provides an estimated value range for guidance only. It is not a professional appraisal, certification, or laboratory assay, and does not guarantee resale value.
Yes, every scan is saved on your device with its photo, name, date, and estimated value, creating an archive of your collection.
It requires an internet connection, value estimates are for guidance, hardness and streak are published values (not tested by the phone), and AI results can sometimes be inaccurate.
The Premium subscription removes the daily identification limit and allows for unlimited follow-up questions, offering a more comprehensive experience.
You can manage or cancel your subscription anytime in your Apple ID account settings. Subscriptions renew automatically unless auto-renew is switched off at least 24 hours before the current period ends.
