It cannot confirm physical properties like hardness, streak, density, fracture, or lab-grade authenticity from an image alone. For rare, high-value, or safety-sensitive specimens, verify in person. App Review Notes Precious Find is a photo-based mineral, gemstone, fossil, and natural find identification app. Review flow: 1. The app can be reviewed without login by using the free scan flow. 2. Sign-in is optional and uses a Supabase magic-link email flow for syncing saved finds across devices. 3. Premium features are unlocked through Apple auto-renewable subscriptions. 4. Restore Purchases is available from the Plans screen after a successful Apple purchase. Important review context: - Camera and photo-library access are used only when the user chooses to scan a specimen. - Location access is optional and only used to attach field context to a saved find. - GeoBot uses saved collection context for follow-up answers. - The app performs photo-based identification only and does not claim lab-grade verification from images alone.
