## Bug Identifier Description
Know what bit you — and whether it's dangerous.
BugAlert turns your camera into a fast bug, spider and bite identifier built for one moment: when you find something and need to know if it's a threat. Snap a photo and get three ranked matches with honest confidence, a clear danger flag, and what to do next.

Built around the danger question
• Colour-coded danger verdict on every result: venomous, bites, stings, disease-carrier or harmless.
• "What bit me?" mode narrows welts and stings to a likely culprit — mosquito, tick, flea, bedbug, spider, ant or wasp — with first-aid steps and clear red-flag guidance on when to seek care.
• Pest mode helps you tell a cockroach from a carpenter ant from a termite, read the signs of an infestation, and decide DIY vs. call a pro.

Accurate, honest identification
• Three candidates with confidence — never a single overconfident guess.
• Species info: common and scientific name, reference photos, range and season.
• Voice input for the bug that got away: describe it and get likely matches.
• Every scan saved to your history.

Important
BugAlert provides informational identification and general safety guidance 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.

## Bug Identifier Reviews in United States

### *---- "So bad"
So guys, I tried it and it would go to an add with NO x out
-- Softballgirl_9, 2024-09-24

### *---- "I picked limited access"
I picked limited access to pictures and now you’re telling me to enable pictures?? why can’t you just take the two pictures I picked? I do not want you to have access to my 3000 pictures. Sorry no can-do.
-- kitty5977, 2024-08-14

### *---- "Crappy can’t access photo gallery"
I have allowed access to selected photos in the settings, but the app keeps saying access not allowed. I suspect it wants me to select Full Access. Not going to happen
-- wagoss56, 2024-07-29

### *---- "Wrong every time"
Just submitted a picture of a small spider. The first diagnosis was that it was a cricket. The second diagnosis was that it was a carpenter ant. Don’t waste your money or your time.
-- suzjtk, 2024-07-29

### *---- "Don’t waste your time"
This app will waste your time. 

I’ve ensured all my photos meet the recommended parameters (one insect, sharpened image, no blurr, full insect is in frame, full daylight, etc.) nonetheless, I have yet to see this app correctly identify a single specimen. 

This may sound like a joke, but it’s not: this app can’t tell the difference between a wood tick and a black ant. Nor can it differentiate a carpet beetle from a honey bee. 

Not to mention you have to watch an ad for each picture you submit. I never write app reviews, but I feel in this case it would be a disservice not to. Don’t be like me, don’t download this app, don’t waste your time.
-- Luxyche, 2024-07-24

### **--- "ok"
this app is def not the best bug id app. but it has wayyyy to many adds and for some reason i dont trust some of the analysis’s it makes. so if i were u I would look at reviews before buying it so ur not wasting ur time and energy. so i dont recommend it. at all. pls read this and don’t get.
-- LeftyPower, 2024-07-13

### **--- "Photos"
Won’t let me use my pictures even though I have allowed access
-- uhavegottobe kiddingme, 2024-07-03

### *---- "Can't ID a spider as a spider"
Nice clear pic of a spider was identified as a dragon fly.  Second clear photo of same spider was identified as a butterfly.  Need I say more?
-- MTjar54, 2024-06-22

### ***-- "Ok….."
It thinks everything is a Asian lady bug.
-- ImBetter727472, 2024-06-06

### *---- "0 for 3"
Tried to identify a caterpillar in my shrubs in Florida and it came up with a wasp, a beetle and a caterpillar that had no similar colors or markings.
-- Marrk R, 2024-04-06
