About three camera snaps. I took about three camera snaps and it brought up subscription. 😦 I tried to take another but still the same thing. So if you want to pay than this is fine, but if you were hoping to take unlimited pictures and just avoid the subscription side, don’t bother. Unless you don’t mind getting three pictures and that’s it. 😕 I was thinking I’d be able to use this app more. Thank you though for this app to identify bugs and other things. 🙂

Seems beyond useless. Unless I am way behind the learning curve, it appears I can bring up or make a picture of, for example, an insect I would like to identify. First I have to tell the app it’s an insect I want to identify. Then, after much special effects, it pronounces that I have found an insect with 65% reliability. That’s it. Seriously?

Not impressed at all. I tried to identify several plants the. Most accuracy was 74%
- ★★★★★vague result instead of species name
Doesn’t get specific. Can’t get it to Id the exact name of the insect . What’s the point ? I know it is a bug.
- ★★★★★vague result instead of species name
Legit garbage. Took a picture of a houseplant to test it. Results are “leaf - 66% accuracy”
- ★★★★★wrong identification
Horrible App: can’t detect even basic flowers or vegetables. Waste of money & time! Tried it out on spinach leaves, poppy flowers & herbs like basil and thyme- NOTHING!! Couldn’t even identify one of them- USELESS !
- ★★★★★wrong identification
Cannot ID Anything. Testing this app to see what it can do. What a joke!!! Tried it on a simple Petunia. Could not ID!!! Tried on Red Rose. Could not ID!! Why can it be simple ?!? I do not recommend this app. If you want the wrong answer, then this app is for you.

Bad. It says I now have to pay to use it and it can’t identify anything
- ★★★★★wrong identification
Horrible. This app is terrible I scanned my dog then it said it was a totally different breed than my dog is. than I scanned a small pumpkin then it said it was a squash and at the end it said it was a shoe like what!

Doesn't identify. If you are hoping to be able to identify a specific thing such as a plant , tree, insect, etc. this app is useless. Take a photo of a plant and it will give you the definition of a "plant", and tell you your photos match things like "plant", "leaf", and "science" at 85.2%. Waste of time.
- ★★★★★vague result instead of species name
Dismal. I’m disappointed. There is a plant that I know the name of but I’ll be darned if I can remember. But this app told me I could not identify it. It’s a fairly common plant, usually planted outdoors in someone’s beds, not an indoor/house plant I’ll delete the app and try another one

Constant obvious mistakes. Charged me when it just said it would not. Not very useful
- ★★★★★wrong identification
Didn’t identify spotted lantern fly. First two paid apps I tried identified the lantern fly. This app offered “beetle”.
- ★★★★★vague result instead of species name
Useless. I submitted a very clear photo of a firefly and it was identified as “insect.” This is an app better suited for toddlers who are learning to identify photos with words.

Smart identifier. This app is a piece of crap. It makes money for the inventor or distributor. And nothing more.Now I must fight to get my money back.

Worthless app. Total scam.. after third picture they want you to subscribe
- ★★★★★other
This app is stupid.. I subscribed for one year and yet, it’s not working
- ★★★★★vague result instead of species name
Keep Looking. Very vague and extremely uncertain about what it’s actually identifying. Like a struggling student yelling out guesses like they are playing Pictionary.
- ★★★★★other
Don’t bother. Useless.. Worst app ever! Don’t even bother, completely useless. So worthless.
- ★★★★★vague result instead of species name
Insect. Stuck on insect. Can’t change to plant or flowers. Guess it’s gonna be trash. Waste of time
- ★★★★★vague result instead of species name
Low level. Unhappy with the app, 10% only identifies flowers & plants!
- ★★★★★wrong identification
Not smart or identifier. This app is terrible I took a picture of a tree and it told me it was grass. It says it’s only correct 30% of the time so far for me it’s been correct 0%.

Horrible. What a rip off 30 dollars a month You can keep it
- ★★★★★vague result instead of species name
Insect always is as insect no kidding. Taken picture over and over looking for a proper id only for it to say insect
- ★★★★★wrong identification
Wrong 5 times in a row!. I just downloaded this to help ID a caterpillar. It told me it was 37% accurate an insect...🤦♀️ So, I tried my photo of a coral snake. 75% accurate it was a boa constrictor. Tried a housefly. It told me 44% an oak leaf moth. Tried an Iris, it told me it was a water lili. My photos were Not blurry or obscured in any way. This is terrible!

Not accurate. Tested it with two things, a basic elm tree and a frog. With the tree it could not identify. It said the frog was a lizard.

Wanted to like it but..... I have 2 apps I use for plant ID and when I saw this one that did insects too I thought it would be great. Except I took a picture of a spider and it said there was a 130% chance it's a widow spider (it's not) and 43% chance it's a spider. It IS 100% a spider! Then I tried my butterfly bush, where I got a choice of flower, flowers in plant, or purple. 20-30% I've reinstalled this 3 times and it's just a waste of time.

Moth or roach. No way this looked like a house moth. I know a roach when I see one. You said 35% said it was a roach “Really!”
- ★★★★★vague result instead of species name
Insects. It hasn’t got one right ever since I started
- ★★★★★vague result instead of species name
Incredibly vague. Moth - you don’t say!? What kind of moth? It’s all links to Wikipedia.
