Not ready for Prime Time
I had hopes for this app but I cancelled during the three-day free trial (thank you!).
I live in the Pacific Northwest and have many mill edge reject pieces. I am certain they are from the PNW region and almost know where they were cut before liking since the wood was given to me by the friend who cut them.
I have had the wood for almost 30-years. I was excited when the app identified boards, but when I scanned a couple of boards three times, I was given three different PNW wood names. Once that happened, I cancelled because the app can’t do better than I do when I guess.

Hi, please could you send us more information to ddominguez@captology.es
Very inaccurate
I recently purchased this app. Pain to use. Must first take a picture then download to the app. I tried on 7 pieces of wood with only 1 hit. A piece of oak came up Winga. lol canceled my subscription
Response from developer
Hi, please could you provide us with more information at ddominguez@nulladevs.com? We would like to know what region you have indicated in the app — perhaps you have set your location to Africa, or the wood origin is from Africa. We filter our databases based on where you indicated you are, or where the wood comes from, in order to provide more accurate results. Regards
I purchased the annual subscription then lost my phone now it wants me to pay again. 😡
I purchased the annual subscription in January 2026, I lost my phone in March 2026 and redownloaded the app however there is no place to sign in to recover my subscription!
No contact information and no way to access my already purchased app.
I loved the app when I was able to use it however I’m not going to pay double for something I’ve already purchased!

Hi Christopher, Email answered a few weeks ago. For the people who are reading this review: when you change your phone and the paywall appears, click on the text at the bottom that says "Restore Purchase," and you will not lose your subscription. Best regards, Daniel
great improvement
I had serious issues with the earlier release, mainly the incessant push for reviews and inaccurate identifications. The review requests have been removed, and the app now asks for input from the user to help improve accuracy, and my impression is it has improved accuracy. I have not tested it as thoroughly as I did the earlier version, but what I see looks very good, and I am greatly encouraged that the developer addressed my concerns in the new release. I am reserving the 5-star status until I have a chance to use it more, but if it continues as well as my current limited testing of this version, then I will update it to a 5-star review. Thank you, wuddy.
