My Tree ID, developed by Texas A&M Forest Service, facilitates tree species identification based on leaves, flowers, seed, bark or location using a key, descriptions, and tree images. It contains over 1500 images from 475 different tree species and includes known occurrence maps from the Biota of North America Program for nearly all species. Individual tree detail pages have complete descriptions including interesting facts and similar species. The map feature allows users to input an address, select current location, or click on any point on the map to narrow the list. A full glossary and a tree age estimator tool complement the key and species list. There are two ways to search for species. One, a simple key by characteristics directed approach, allows users to select one or more tree characteristics from large color icons. At any point in the process the possible species may be displayed. The other way is to select certain filters from the A-Z species list. The filter tool can also narrow down possible choices at any stage in the keying process. The species list is searchable by common or scientific name, or simply alphabetically. Designed to be an educational tool for anyone wanting to increase their understanding of trees, simple language and terms are used throughout the app whenever possible. More technical terms can be defined in a pop-up window by selecting the highlighted word. Users may also refer to the full glossary at any time without losing their place in the process. The tree estimator tool uses a species growth factor and tree diameter to provide a rough approximation of tree age. The app uses published growth factors and only a limited number are available. However, this serves as a starting point for estimating individual tree age.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Plant Identification ++ at 4.6 against My Tree ID's 3.7. Plant Identification ++ also leads on ratings volume (31K vs 18). My Tree ID's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 3) and review sentiment (60% vs 44%). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Plant Identification ++ sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days. My Tree ID asks for nothing beyond the download.
Plant Identification ++ holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Plant Identification ++ has 31K ratings behind it against 18, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 44% of Plant Identification ++'s written reviews are positive against 60% of My Tree ID's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
