About this app

Trees Count is a tree inventory app which maps individual trees and stores data such as species, DBH, condition and recommended maintenance. Users can filter trees as well as transfer inventories across devices through the import and export functions or choose to connect to ArcGIS online. Export data is compatible with i-Tree and has a companion report interface available through http://texasforestinfo.com.

Ratings and reviews

This app is not close to being usable yet. I was looking for an app to help manage the 160 trees at my condo, but I gave up on this after entering the first three. The first thing I noticed is that the map interface is glitchy and unresponsive, and there are no hints on how to use it. It does not let you save the info for a tree until you have filled out every one of the many fields in the form, whether it is relevant or not. There is not even the usual "*" to indicate required fields. You are just supposed to know that somehow. When choosing the species of a tree, you must search the complete list for every single tree, instead of choosing from a short list of species that you have already selected. The final straw was when I had entered my third tree and looked at the map to see them scattered at random locations instead of in a straight row as they really are. This may have the potential to be a useful app, but it is a long way from that now.

Excellent app clean, simple, powerful. My only observation is: I wonder if I can add a tree not listed in the app catalog.

Glitch not allowing exports or photo sync so basically useless until this is fixed

What's new

Fixed a limitation where an inventory could not have more than 256 trees.
