User reviews

Used to be my favorite spider ID app

Out of all the insect identifiers apps, this has always been my “go-to”-
Up until about the last year…..because now if I can get it to open, and try to identify something the app crashes every single time and there has been no update. I’ve also tried uninstalling and reinstalling with no success.

Can’t give less than 1 star or I would (I’d give negative 10 if I could)

I downloaded the app, then took a picture of a spider. I uploaded the image and tapped “classify spider” and the app crashed. So I took another picture of the spider, uploaded it and tapped “classify spider” and the app crashed again. So I took a third picture of the spider, uploaded it and tapped “classify spider” and the app crashed yet again. I tried removing the app and reinstalling it, then I uploaded the photo one more time and tapped “classify spider” and the app crashed again.

Kind of pointless to download an app that seemingly only exists so you can have the icon on your home screen. Don’t waste your time with this one! The icon is kinda cute, but unless you want an app that’s more for just lookin at and not actually using, it won’t be worth waiting for it to download.

Awesome!

This app is awesome, but a little scary (maybe because I’m afraid of spiders?) This will be my go to app out in the garden from now on.
