About this app

Curious what that is? Point your camera at any plant, tree, flower, bird, insect, spider, reptile, or fungus and Spotter tells you what it is in seconds — then hands you a full field guide on the species you just found.

Spotter is for anyone who notices the natural world and wants to know more — on a hike, in the backyard, at the park, on a trip, or just out the kitchen window.

🌿 IDENTIFY ANYTHING IN NATURE
- Plants — wildflowers, trees, shrubs, leaves, berries, and backyard growth
- Animals — birds, mammals, insects, spiders, reptiles, amphibians, and more
- Fungi — mushrooms, brackets, lichen, and everything in between
- Other — rocks, minerals, fossils, and natural features

📋 A REAL FIELD GUIDE, NOT JUST A NAME
- Overview — habitat, behavior, and ecology
- Identity — the key features that confirm the species
- Regions — whether it's native to where you are
- Fun facts and the story behind what you found

🔊 SEE IT AND HEAR IT
Compare your photo against reference images, and for animals, play recorded calls and songs to recognize species by ear as well as by sight.

🗺️ REGIONAL CONTEXT
Spotter uses your location (optional) to sharpen results for the area you're actually in.

Every identification is saved automatically — a personal record of everything you've spotted.
