About
Step out, scan your area, collect every animal on Earth.
Tracks turns iNaturalist's research-grade observations into a field tool that surfaces the documented wildlife around you. Tap a hex on the map to see what's been spotted nearby: birds, mammals, reptiles, amphibians, fish. Each comes with a real photo, scientific name, and the location it was last seen.
WHAT YOU GET
- A radar that scans the hex you're standing in for documented wildlife
- Real photos and species data from iNaturalist's community
- Your personal Tracks: every species you've collected, with a counter for repeat sightings
- Smart expansion in sparse areas (rural or open water) so you always have something to discover
- Location used only while you're scanning, never in the background
FOR FIELD WORK, WALKS, AND CURIOSITY
Use Tracks on a coastal walk to learn what shorebirds frequent the cove. Use it in a city park to see which native mammals the iNat community has documented. Use it on a road trip to discover regional fauna you'd otherwise miss.
DATA SOURCED FROM iNATURALIST
All observations come from iNaturalist's research-grade dataset under Creative Commons licensing. Every photo is attributed to its observer.

• Full French and Spanish translations, species descriptions in German, French and Spanish • Undiscovered species are no longer a question mark They show as a halftone silhouette • The zoomed-out map now shows country and region cards with what lives there • Terradex is browsable: pick any place you've scanned from your history, filter to what you've actually discovered, see richer collection stats • Clearing a zone is now a moment • Tap any species in a cell peek to open its page, and scroll past the first four rows in a busy area • Clearer recovery when location permission is denied, coarse, or unavailable, so you can't scan the wrong area by accident
