Is there no way to look up edible plants where u live, I don’t need to know what is edible in Australia or anywhere else around the world 🀨

Review

Very informative

If you can’t figure it out with this app stay home

I have a fair knowledge base for edibles but there are always new plants that deserve to be questioned. This app may not be 100% on every plant but it is as close as you will get. It could truly be a life saver.

It doesn’t mention that this is USA ONLY!

It maybe a good app, but useless now I’ve bought it, as I live in the UK. It doesn’t specify that this is USA only!

Needs photo identification

I had assumed that with this app you could take a picture and have plant identified. This app seems only useful if you already know about the plant.

Needs photo

If you see a plant you cannot identify you have to take a hour to go thru every line item to see if it’s a match. Just fix it so you can take a photo of unidentified plant and run they app.
Does me no good

Limited info

I’m disappointed. There aren’t that many plants in their database and limited info on the plants listed. Also, the map feature has no purpose. I paid 1.99 and regret that.

Just getting started

So far I like it I have a Lotta information thank you

Disappointing app

Maybe because I am already a serious forager I have discovered numerous fails in this app. First 2 wild edibles I look up, very common ones, not in there. Garlic mustard and wild spinach. Could not find them in there. Now if they are in there under some other names this too is a weakness in the app. Would have given it one star but it does have some useful info in there but not great by any means. Keep looking, spend a little more, get a better app

Not worth!

So many edible plants that are missing! Smilax, Biden’s Alba, Dollar Weed, to name just a few that are not on your list. This app needs a serious update!

Real lifesaver

I’m over 70 & old vet - The Datas found in this application Can save you and your families butts!! In a emergency!! well done !! very well done !! I learned a lot!πŸ€©πŸ¦–πŸ˜Ž

Ok

It’s a a really good app and well thought of but it show only the location of item in the USA. And half the plants I have never seen or heard of. Please update with UK PLANTS.

Sick app

This app is amazing. Pets only I love goin our into the bush and knowing what fruit and berrys I can eat really helps. Great job!

Perfect

Great pictures, perfect information, works off line, easy read, very organized. One suggestion I would make is break up the edible plants into groups where they are located in the states. So all plants found in Florida in one tab. If plants are found in multiple states and it's the same multiple states they should in one tab.

Weak

This app has a small amount of info. It misses a lot of plants regularly found throughout New England. Weak.

Good starter app

Good information to use as a start for getting into identifying plants and the map feature is great as well

Not enough

I also wish there was a plant identification feature. I’d like to snap a shot and know what I’m looking at

Elementary

Not very impressed with the information. Very basic plant identification and regions are even more generally described. Still a good amount of information for $2.00, but your probably better using google search to look up and identify plants in your' specific region.

Very informative

I just got this app so I haven't learned everything about it. It seems very informative, and has a pretty big selection to learn about. The one problem I have is that it's not great to navigate. It would be nice to be able to sort by region, or things like that.

Informative app.

This app is pretty good. It has a picture of the plants, well described on what's edible and not, where it's from, etc. The only thing I think this app needs is to have more pictures on each plant as what it's leaves (shape, orientation of each), flowers, roots, bark, etc look like so I can go out and determine what's what.

The information in this app can be found on the web for free, but when in the wilderness it would be nice to reference since there is no internet in nature.
