## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2025-02-05, version 1.4.1*

Whenever taking photos or uploading, just kept saying something went wrong. Load of rubbish.

### 1/5 — Rubbish!

*2025-02-01, version 1.4.1*

Every time I give it a photo it just says “something went wrong”.  As far as I’m concerned it just doesn’t work. Absolute rubbish!

### 1/5 — Yellow Garden spider

*2024-10-02*

I took a picture of a yellow garden spider to double check what it was ( I thought it was a yellow orb spider). Your app told me it was a bird! How do I cancel the app?

### 1/5 — DO NOT DOWNLOAD.

*2024-08-26*

Let’s you download for “free” with “in app purchases” but you can’t get past the first screen without card details.

### 1/5 — Do not download!

*2024-08-01*

Even tho it clearly says ‘Free trial no payment now’,this app charged me $30 immediately. I had to request a refund from Apple Pay. NOT amused.

### 1/5 — Bait and Switch

*2024-03-21*

Advertised today - 3:21/2024 - as free lifetime. 

There is no option for free trial nor free lifetime

### 1/5 — Supposed to be a lifetime free offer

*2024-03-21*

But it doesn’t appear. Not paying $99 for this. No way.

### 2/5 — Not a bad app

*2024-02-27*

The app does pretty good but it didn’t let me do the free trial

### 2/5 — No trial use

*2023-12-16*

Free download but no free use or trial period.  If you want to try it you have to pay.

### 4/5 — It’s a pity

*2024-03-20*

The official app name is SpiderID, only one kind of bug. However it does id insects as well.
The loaded videos loop endlessly and serves no education purpose.

### 5/5 — Amazing!!!

*2024-04-02*

Like it does all my insects

### 5/5 — Bravo!

*2024-03-21*

Enfin une application pour identifier les insectes que l’on observe au quotidien.

### 5/5 — Been looking for this type of handy application

*2024-03-20*

Definitely going to use this beautiful and handy application more often in the coming days. 

Please work regularly to make this app much better and effective. And thanks for the application. 

Note: I regularly update my review/rating for this application. iPhone 14 Pro Max (latest iOS)

With Kindest Regards-BR

### 5/5 — Handy bug identifier

*2024-03-15*

Fun app for kids to identify bugs. I’m learning a lot too!

### 5/5 — Loved it! 🐞

*2024-03-09*

Such a useful app to learn about insects!!

### 5/5 — Helps identify bugs easily!

*2024-03-05*

So my wife hates bugs and unfortunately we get a lot of them here in the summer. This app helps me identify which bugs I need to worry about and which ones are beneficial. 

I recommend it to anyone with an interest in bugs (or a hatred for them) 🙃

### 5/5 — So helpful!

*2023-09-08*

I work in my yard a good bit and it’s great to know when I come across an insect I’m not familiar with that I can just pull up this app and see if it’s harmful or helpful for my plants.
