Tree Identifier

What tree is that? Point your camera at any tree and know in seconds. Tree Identifier names the species from a single photo, leaves, bark, flowers, fruit or the whole silhouette, and tells you what matters: the common and scientific name, the family, and whether any part is toxic to kids, dogs or cats. HOW IT WORKS • Snap a photo (or pick one from your library) • AI reads leaves, bark and silhouette together • Get the species, family and scientific name • See instantly if it's safe for children and pets • Every scan is saved to your own field guide KNOW WHAT'S SAFE Yew berries, cherry laurel, black locust, some of the most common trees and shrubs are toxic, and they grow on ordinary streets and in ordinary yards. Every identification includes a clear toxicity answer for humans, dogs and cats, plus a practical care tip and a fact worth retelling. BUILT FOR EVERY WALK • My Collection: your personal field guide, built scan by scan • Works on hikes, in the garden, at the park, on the school run • Honest answers: when the AI isn't sure, it says so and tells you what to photograph next • Fast, private, no account needed CREDITS Packs of 10 or 20 credits. Each scan costs 1 credit. No subscription, no auto-renewal. Maps, guides and all other features are free. Note: identifications and toxicity notes are informational only and can be wrong. Never eat or feed any plant based on an app identification, and contact poison control or a veterinarian immediately if a person or pet may have ingested a toxic plant.
