🤦🏻♂️👀
I have had a few different animal, insect and plant identifier apps over the past 5 years or so and this one this app is great.. for comic relief!! I took a picture of three newborn baby rabbits just to gain some extra knowledge on them. The image came back as american toads. I then took a closer shot from about 3 inches away and it only reached a much… MUCH wilder level of high strange crazy and returned with a identifier of HUMAN! Three baby rabbits… HUMANS?!?!? From a few inches away??? Thats where I draw the line..

Bad IDs
App has lost ability to correctly identify plants.
Great But Unreliable
I scan things fairly often, and some things tend to just be wrong. To prove this theory with something I knew for certain I used my Mexican Red Leg Tarantula (her name is ollie) in which the app said was a Bold Jumping Spider
Would be great if it worked
The way the app functions, the detailed information is all great. But when it tells me a duck is a cat, it’s kind of useless, isn’t it?
Single most useful (and fun!) app
I use iSeek many times a week for everything from figuring out what plants are coming up in my yard or garden beds (did I plant those?) to identifying that weird bug in the house to figuring out what weird manner of outdoor delicacies my puppy is trying to ingest so I know if it’s safe. It works incredibly well!

Awesome app!
I have used this app for year now, it is super helpful in identifying everything from butterflies to all sorts of insects. While yes it does have its flaws (most apps do) I really enjoy using it to identify all kinds of cool bugs!
Best. App. Ever.
This app is probably the best app in this entire App Store. So much educational value, and so much new information I would have never guessed. The best part is, it’s 100% free. You can never find an app like this anywhere. I can overlook some inaccuracies, it’s just the nature (no pun intended) of the AI. I highly recommend this app, so good for everyday use!

Can’t actually identify any type of fungi
This app clearly guesses and will give either no response or chooses a multitude of different names for the same picture in different angles. It’s not reliable at all and a shame. If you not taking pictures of super simple basic flowers good luck. Even with it using location data it can’t identify correctly

Love! Just one issue
I love love love love this app! It is sooooooo useful but there are no pictures. Whenever I identify a creature, it doesn’t show me pictures except mine.
Love it but could use some improvements.
Like I love it but just saying it could be lowkey more accurate…and one annoying thing is that it takes so long for it to find the species and often it says I need to give another angle or something. But if you spotted a rare I dunno snake and you already zoomed in and came very close and like imagine if then seek just said that you need another angle which probably would be depressing cos you’ll probably never see that snake again(this has not happened to me btw just saying)

Dicots everywhere
The idea of the app is cool but it’s horrible. Just says everything is a dicot without actually drilling down further no matter how close or far away from a plant you may be.
Ok but “dicot”?
Works for some things but almost everything I check it says “dicots”. I think it told me that about my pepper plants so i pulled them up. It told me that about another plant and so i moved it over to my shrub and it too was supposedly a dicots. Frustration
Decent, but…
I’m need my macro iPhone lens to kick in. Your use of my camera is not user selectable. Too bad because insects tend not to be human size!
Not as accurate as it used to be
Used to be a wonderful way to learn about new species. I had a professor who suggested this app for school. It was accurate a few years ago. Lately, it’s been off. Perhaps needs an update?
Why does everything use AI
I used to get relatively accurate plant identification from this app. At some point in the recent past, they switched to an AI that could not accurately identify a plant if it was reading a label. I went from correctly identifying plants 9 times out of 10 to identifying a plum tree as a wasp. There were no wasps in the picture. There were hanging plums in the picture. At no point did it identify the plant as a tree, the fruit as a plum, or anything even remotely accurate. I’m deleting this app. I wish that everything that used to be helpful had not become so reliant on the use of AI to fix problems that didn’t exist in the first place.

A good idea but the wrong execution
this app works in theory. but recently i’ve taken a lot of photo of wildlife and flowers such as king snakes or man of the wild’s, this app couldnt identify them at all
Inaccurate - Utter Rubbish
Utterly inaccurate. Finds everything as a didcot. Despite scanning blatantly obvious spieces under test, this app got everyone wrong.
Awesome *UPDATED 8/2026 Below original*
Best identification app! I can do plants, bugs, and more in a one stop shop. Unlike some apps, it nearly never gives incorrect ID, and it will narrow it down to as much as it can if it can't determine exact species. This gives a great start on many things. Really love and appreciate iNaturalist for their awesome work! ***UPDATE 8/2026*** Unfortunately, I find I get a lot of false identifications now. Especially with bugs. There is no way that I can find to report "hey I don't think that's what it is actually". I took a picture of the same dragonfly 3 times yesterday and received 3 different IDs which I believe are all incorrect. This incorrectly fuels data and also incorrectly teaches people what things are if they aren't paying attention or if they don't know what to look for. I find that irresponsible, and I much prefer when it would fail to identify it or only go as far as it could positively ID, such as giving the family. I respect that. I find this change disappointing from an app that I have highly recommended to many people.

False advertising
Couldnt tell me what animal i took a picture of
Ужасно плохо
Даже морковь распознать не может
