What is that? Point your camera and find out in seconds. SnapID identifies anything you can photograph — a rock on a hiking trail, a coin in a drawer, a bug on the wall, a plant in a friend's window, a building you walked past — and gives you a clear name plus a detailed description covering material, color, shape and key features. One app instead of seven. Most identifier apps do one thing: rocks, or birds, or plants. SnapID handles whatever you point it at. WHAT YOU CAN IDENTIFY • Rocks, minerals, crystals, gemstones and fossils • Coins, stamps and collectibles • Bugs, insects and spiders • Plants, flowers, trees, leaves and mushrooms • Birds and animals, including dog breeds • Landmarks, buildings and monuments • Products, gadgets, tools and everyday household objects HOW IT WORKS 1. Open SnapID and point your camera at whatever caught your eye 2. Frame the subject so the AI knows exactly what to look at 3. Get an instant identification with a full description 4.
