Don’t waste your time.
I had this on my iPhone for a few months because it was fun and mostly identified correctly! I deleted because I was not using it anymore, and because I needed extra storage in my phone. I just downloaded it so I could find out what type of spider the one I found was; I took a decent picture and put it in the app. It was a brown spider with black stripes and white stripes on each side of its abdomen. It said it was a pill bug… I thought maybe it was a bad photo so I took one with better lighting; It said it was a northern honey bee. I don’t know what happened! This app used to work!

Pretty solid most of the time
This works pretty good, but sometimes if you don’t line up the squares properly, you get another result. I’m not sure about you guys, but it’s working fine for me. It also doesn’t work really well with small bugs, which I can understand, but otherwise, pretty solid app

Spider
This app is the worst, it call my new pet spider a house fly. I was expecting something much better. Also after Avery attempt there was another add! I get that adds are how they make money but it was every time a submitted a photo! I even got a picture with all 8 legs in it and the eyes and details, and it still called it a house fly. The 3 responses that I always got were: common house fly, picture winged fly, and no results. I would not recommend one bit. Awful app.

New update stinks
I had this app on my iPhone and it worked wonderfully. We used daily as I have 2 boys who are really into insects. We also loved going through our list of insect pictures that we got over the year. I got a new iPhone and used the iCloud to reinstall all my apps. This one was a favorite, but when I downloaded the update it is completely inaccurate now. It’s such a bummer. It also didn’t save our previous snaps. What happened to this amazing app?

Identified what no others could
I usually don’t write reviews, but I felt the need to give positive feedback for this app after it identified a bug that no other app could identify. Thanks to this app, I was able to identify the pest and properly treat my plants.

Free download because it doesn’t work
I tried two different distinct pictures of spiders I had pics of and it reported them back as being one a mantis and the second one some sort of grass bug located clear across the country and like the first didn’t look a thing like the pics I provided nor were they even close! Disappointed because it is a free app that doesn’t provide even slightly accurate results

Needs work
A bit disappointed. Has to use a different app for identification. This one identified a reticulated net-winged beetle as a monarch butterfly; identified a wolf spider as a honey bee, and a lone star tick identified as a forest bug.. Not instilling much confidence in this app. I’d it works for you, I’m happy for you. My experience has thus far been lackluster..

Worth all of my zero cents
Absolutely worthless, but I love it so much. 10/10 would recommend if you don’t actually care what the bug is.

Don’t recommend
This app is great for finding out that bug in your yard. But when I try to look up “fruit fly” and “fungus gnat”, it says no results were found. Yes, it wouldn’t have every bug, but fruit flies are not those strange bugs that no one knows about. If you love laughter, then get it. But if you don’t, stay far away from it.

Don’t waste your time
This app will waste your time. I’ve ensured all my photos meet the recommended parameters (one insect, sharpened image, no blurr, full insect is in frame, full daylight, etc.) nonetheless, I have yet to see this app correctly identify a single specimen. This may sound like a joke, but it’s not: this app can’t tell the difference between a wood tick and a black ant. Nor can it differentiate a carpet beetle from a honey bee. Not to mention you have to watch an ad for each picture you submit. I never write app reviews, but I feel in this case it would be a disservice not to. Don’t be like me, don’t download this app, don’t waste your time.

Wanting permissions that aren’t needed
This app wants access to your entire photo gallery instead of just your selected photos. There’s a reason this app is free. Be cautious because the only reason I can think of for this to be free, but want your entire photo library means they are wanting access to all your photos for some reason.

I used this on a bug two different photos and they both said different things which I looked it up and it wasn’t accurate at ALL a whole different color I showed a tiny brown bug and it told me mine was a moth and I put up another photo and it said it was a type of ladybug which was WHITE. wouldn’t recommend this app.

Love the app the bugs are actually the real thing,the only suggestion I have is to add a section to ask if the bug is poisonous or not.

What a purrfectly broken bug scanner
Hello! I installed this app a couple weeks ago to scan a potato bug, and it said it was a cicada! I then deleted it, reinstalled yesterday to scan my pet slug, George, and it thinks he is a White Sphinx Caterpillar. I scanned him again today with a different photo, now it thinks he is a monarch. Please fix this. 🥺

Don’t bother
This is the absolute worst bug identifying app I’ve used. It has been wrong (not even close) every time I’ve used it. I check what it gives me on google just to be sure. Even its own percentage of being accurate is very low on the bugs I’ve tried to identify.

Doesn’t work
I’ve taken live pictures and used my gallery. The pics are close up and good. The identifier is saying these are things that don’t even look like the pictures and it has very low probability that it is correct. Even the app knows it’s wrong!

Complete junk
I submit a very clear and focused picture and it gives me a random bug name, then submit it again and it Gives me another random bug. I’m %100 sure this app just randomly pics out bug names without any sort of identification knowledge.

Same bug, 4 different identifications
Trying to figure out if we have bees or wasps invading our home. Took a picture 4 times and results were some sort of moth, some sort of mosquito, some sort of beetle, and a bald hornet. Still don’t know what’s invading our home.

Not even close
I’m taking pictures of some sort of water insect. Maybe a damsel fly nymph, with a cool triple tail. This program said there was a 30% match for a lady bug. So I tried to get a better shot. Now it says it’s a 35% match for an emerald moth. And it shows me tons of intrusive ads. I don’t think so.

Terrible
Don’t waste your time. Not a single correct answer. I tried 3 different times for 3 different bugs each. It gave me a different answer every time. The highest confidence reading I received was 78% once and it was no where near the same bug. Next highest was 11%.

Wasted my time
I tried to identify a type of ant I found in my kitchen (probably a carpenter ant). First attempt stated it was a Western Honey Bee. Second attempt stated it was a some sort of lady beetle. Third attempt repeated Western Honey Bee. Forth attempt stated it was an Argentine Ant. I looked up pictures of Argentine Ants and this ant was obviously very different.

Not helpful - deleting app
Tried to identify 2 different spiders. Told me 2 different types of bugs, non of which were spiders. Both spiders were identified as a western pill bug and a second attempt told me the wolf spider was a mantis. The second spider is actually a brown recluse.

This app doesn't identify the bug at all. The insect I'm looking to identify looks like a tick but the app kept showing different things every single time including a butterfly as well. Just removed it.

Mainly used for spiders
I really only used this app for spiders and it got EVERY SINGLE ONE WRONG. Didn’t even identify them as spiders. One spider I did, it said it was moth. Another spider it said it was a beetle. Then I got like butterfly for another spider. Like wth???? This app has no clue what spiders are apparently.

Horrible At Identification
The photo would name a bug, however when you look at the confidence rate for what the bug actually was, it would show 10% or 11% confidence.
