Ratings and reviews

Great app! It works very well, is easy to use, and the IDs are usually accurate. I've had a great experience with it overall. One suggestion: please add adult snakeflies to the database. Right now, it seems only snakefly larvae are included, which can cause adult snakeflies to be misidentified. Other than that, it's an excellent bug ID app and one I'd definitely recommend.

I love this app. Today, I was checking on some insects I'd photographed as well as a new one I found, and I thought, "I should just go ahead and buy this and support them." So I went to purchase, and unfortunately, all the options are subscriptions. I can't justify a subscription for an app I use less than once a month. But, if y'all ever want to offer a one-time premium upgrade for a decent price, I'm in!

Careful when first opening this app! There are two (yeah, 2) pop ups pushing the "7 day free trial". If you click the "start trial" button and agree to the subscription, even if you uninstall it, it will charge you $29.99 for the year. Click the X in the top right hand corner (of any popups), it'll then be free to use. The free version works great. It's just lame that they have to use such tricky tactics to get subscriptions. Don't fall for it. Be vigilant when DLing apps or you'll get screwed.
