It has been pretty helpful and accurate with good photos applied. ### 4/5 — Finds the name *2024-04-16* Recently moved from the SoCal to Georgia. Unfamiliar with the bugs and spiders here. This is an easy to use resource and I almost always get info. I am curious person. This resource is very helpful. ### 4/5 — Good name id, but no description *2023-11-14* It only provides id by scientific name and links to Wikipedia which also provides no description. I was hoping for descriptions of how and where it lives and whether or not it’s venomous. ### 2/5 — Glitchy *2023-07-03* Doesn't work half the time, and when it does identify the bug, there's no links or information about it just the name of it. Not a very practical app especially when I have to type in a long species name into a Google search instead of being able to just tap on it and have it take me directly to a information page. The Wikipedia link doesn't work either. ### 5/5 — Florida spiders *2023-07-01* First spider correctly identified with a lot of useful and interesting information ### 3/5 — Description *2023-06-28* I guess I shouldn't complain, the app says it is a spider identifier, but I wish it would offer a little bit about the spider, I.e., is it poisonous, aggressive, etc. ### 5/5 — Works just like it said it would.. *2023-05-10, version 1.0.3* Works just like it said it would.. ### 4/5 — Good *2023-03-28* It identifies simple insects well. It just doesn’t give much information about them ### 5/5 — Good *2022-12-19, version 1.0.2* Good ### 5/5 — Great app *2022-10-02, version 1.0.2* Great app ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Paywall *2024-11-06* Improperly identified one spider and it locked everything behind a pay wall. Just another greedy useless app ### 1/5 — Inaccurate *2024-09-17* When a spider name is populated, click through to more descriptions and 10 of my 10 try's, the results were never more that 18% accurate according to the app. Most of the time their results said only 10% accurate. That means there's only a 10% chance they got it right and 90% chance the app identified the wrong type of spider. I wish I could get a refund even for the $3 spent to try it out ### 1/5 — Cdcrvtbumjmgvru h *2024-08-22, version 1.0.7* I have to give you a bad reveeiw it’s so expensive ### 1/5 — Horrible *2023-09-25, version 1.0.5* Please take me off your list of subscribers Melinda Freed ### 1/5 — This app is a scam *2023-07-12* When you tried to take a picture of the bug it would take the picture but it wouldn’t even identify it, and you have to have a member ship to use the app so it cost money and it never said anything about a membership, so i can’t even use the app but picture insect is an amazing app and it identifies the bug for you, and actually works so go get picture insect for free! ### 1/5 — It’s the annoying music for me *2023-06-28, version 1.0.5* No way to disable the crap music? Deleted! ### 1/5 — Can’t get it to work *2023-01-25* I entered a picture for analysis. It went directly to an ad to buy the premium version while playing annoying music ### 1/5 — Not good *2022-10-09, version 1.0.2* I can’t contact anyone to complain ### 1/5 — Not free *2022-10-04* After using it a couple of times you have to either pay weekly or for a year. Also it doesn’t identify bugs correctly half the time. Useless. ### 1/5 — used once then hit paywall *2022-09-30, version 1.0.2* i get that you’re a “for-profit” business, but just make me watch ads or something. it’s literally unusable if i don't pay and frankly, i’m a 10-year old arachnophobe, so as much as i want this to work, i can’t pay. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Awesome! *2025-10-29* We wanted to identify a huge totally black spider in the garage….It was Big but, based on my ‘spider knowledge’ it looked harmless… I took two pictures and within seconds this app identified it- it was a male Black Widow spider. I thought Blqck Widows had a red hour glass shape on their back…?! Apparently only the females have the red hourglass on their back! Thank you Sider Identifier! You likely saved us a trip to the Emergency Room! 😄🔍 ### 5/5 — Great *2024-10-21, version 1.0.8* Wonderful ### 5/5 — BRO *2024-07-12* I took a picture of my DOG and it said that it was a BUG ### 5/5 — Spider identifier *2024-04-06, version 1.0.6* So great ### 5/5 — Accurate *2023-12-01, version 1.0.6* Identified my photo accurately ### 5/5 — Quick and reliable *2023-10-02* Great gardners aid ### 5/5 — Quick and reliable *2023-09-22* Great gardners aid ### 5/5 — Great, *2023-09-10, version 1.0.5* I can identify any bug, I want like the one I just did ### 5/5 — Tom *2023-09-05* Works fine ### 5/5 — ID bug *2023-07-01* I DAVE bug is the best because I’ve learned a lot about spiders and I found one just right next to my window and I think it’s gone so yeah --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
