About this app

Bug Identifier — what it is, if it's dangerous, and what to do
BugAlert is a bug identifier built for one moment: you find a bug, a spider, or a bite and need to know fast whether it's dangerous. Point your camera and this bug identifier gives you three ranked matches, a clear danger verdict, and the next step. It's a bug identifier for people who are worried, not curious — a fast, accurate insect identifier and spider identifier with a safety answer built in.

A bug identifier that answers the danger question
Most apps stop at the name. BugAlert is a bug identifier that leads with danger: every result shows a color-coded flag — venomous, bites, stings, disease-carrier, or harmless. As a spider identifier it separates a brown recluse or black widow from a harmless house spider. As a bug bite identifier it helps you see what bit you and whether it needs care.

"What bit me?" — a bug bite identifier and first-aid guide
Woke up with a bite, welt, or rash? The bite identifier mode narrows the culprit — mosquito, tick, flea, bedbug, spider, ant, or wasp — with first-aid steps and clear red-flag guidance on when to seek care. It's a bug bite identifier and rash checker for the 2am moment when you need an answer.

Pest identifier — is it in my house?
As a pest identifier, BugAlert helps you tell a cockroach from a carpenter ant from a termite, read the signs of an infestation, and decide DIY versus calling a pro. The right pest identifier answer saves money on the wrong treatment, so a pest identifier that gets the species right pays for itself.

Accurate insect identifier — three matches, honest confidence
This insect identifier never gives a single overconfident guess. You get three candidates with confidence scores, common and scientific names, reference photos, range and season. It's a bug identifier and insect identifier you can trust because it shows its uncertainty instead of hiding it.

Spider identifier, tick identifier, and more
Use it as a spider identifier, a tick identifier, an ant identifier, or a bee and wasp identifier. Whatever the bug, this bug identifier gives you the ID and the danger read together, so a spider identifier and tick identifier live in one place.

A bug identifier for the bug that got away
Can't get a photo? Describe it and this bug identifier narrows the likely matches. Every scan is saved to your history so your bug identifier history is always there.

From the backyard to the bedroom
Whether it's a spider on the wall, a line of ants in the kitchen, a beetle in the garden, or a mystery bite on your arm, BugAlert is the bug identifier that covers it. Identify bugs and insects around the house, in the yard, on the trail, or on holiday, and get the same clear danger read every time. It works as a mosquito, cockroach, beetle, caterpillar, and moth identifier, and it keeps a saved history so you can compare a new find against the last. A broad bug identifier means fewer unanswered "what is this bug" moments and a faster answer when a bite or spider has you worried.

Important — not medical or pest-control advice
BugAlert is an informational bug identifier and safety guide only. It is not medical, veterinary, or pest-control advice. For a bite or sting that worries you, or a suspected infestation, consult a qualified professional.

Ratings and reviews

It's a brilliant idea, but the execution is laughably useless! I have a crystal clear photo of a moth I wanted to identify, the answer it gave was clearly wrong so tried 3 more times & gave me a different answer each time. Tried a picture of a tadpole & it told me it was a ladybird! 🤣 I was going to take a photo of a spider for further testing, but the take a photo option doesn't work at all. Needless to say, I'm deleting the app.

excellent! can either SEARCH their database yourself, OR take a pic, OR pick a photo from your gallery for the app to identify. what I LOVE is that it's FREE! I tried to download apps similar, but they ALL wanted money... then I came across this one! haha I sound like an advertisement, but i really like it.

The scanner on this app doesn't work correctly at all. When it scans a photo of a bug,that's all it'll do...continues to scan. Doesn't stop. I've tried multiple pictures. Dont waste your time
