      The Florida Gopher Tortoise app was developed for The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission in order to raise awareness of the dangers facing Florida gopher tortoises. It has different sections all about the protected species, and also has the ability to take pictures and report sightings.

      Good idea, but only barely works. As others have reported, if you select "Update the App?" when you launch it, it just keeps spinning. Selecting no will allow it to launch, but it takes forever. Also, you can't upload previously taken photos. This is also a big problem if you are hiking somewhere without cell reception. It would be nice to have a map on the phone of previously reported sightings as well. So it's ok, it functions, but could really use some improvements.

      Tortoise Taggin'! This app is handy when in at the park running ave see a burrow. User friendly and takes five seconds to do. Probably the most basic yet helpful action we can take to help conserve.

      Needs improvement Needs an ability to upload an existing gopher tortoise photo from the gallery. Took one this weekend but can't report it through this app. A link to the map of reported sightings from within the app would be nice as well.

      This app needs to have the ability to upload pictures. When I first saw a gopher tortoise I went for my phone camera. Now I have no way to upload the picture from my gallery. Please make this an option because many people are going to experience the same issue. Thanks. Note: I am using the Galaxy S4.

      It's okay. When the app first comes on it stays on the home photo for a long time. I've missed gopher tortoises because of this. No where does it tell you where to go from the home photo. Please add a start tab or something. Once you get in it ask if you want to take a photo. You fill out your name and notes and take the photo. After that nothing tells you what to do. Please add a send tab or at least a message that says your info has been sent. Once these things are fixed it will be a better app.

      Not functioning. Does not function on my older HTC Inspire. Not surprising though since Android has been updated several times since I bought it.

      Need a way to upload photos This app needs a way to upload photos not just direct camera shots. I have a few photos of ones I want to report but can't upload.
