Ratings and reviews

They seem to have fixed the picture problem which is a big plus. If there was more info on the animals like if they're venomous or not would make this app great. I live in costa rica for 9 months a year. not having to carry a book or pamphlet is nice. I'll leave my previous review below "this would be a great app if you could see the picture of the animal you clicked on. Not worth the cost until they fix a few things."

Such a cool and thorough app. Very helpful while I was visiting Costa Rica! I was able to find in the app most of the animals I came across, but there were one or two that I didn't see an equivalent for such as chitons and some kind of speckled sea snail. I'd love to be able to contribute to the app next time I'm there if possible.

Disappointing. This is not a field guide as the app description states. The only information provided is taxonomy and distribution. There is no capability to search by characteristics. The photos do not distinguish between male and female. After paying $20 for the full package, I discovered that many photos are missing.

What's new

Technology migration to .NET MAUI to allow for compliance with latest Google Play Standards.
EXIF data of photos is now available via single tap instead of Long tap.
Feature set has not changed.
