## HerpMapper Description
HerpMapper is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization designed to gather and share information about reptile and amphibian observations across the planet. Using the HerpMapper mobile app, you can create records of your herp observations and keep them all in one place. In turn, your data is made available to HerpMapper Partners – groups who use your recorded observations for research, conservation, and preservation purposes. Your observations can make valuable contributions on the behalf of amphibians and reptiles.

Using your phone’s camera and GPS capabilities, the HerpMapper mobile app creates a ‘voucher record’ of your find, incorporating photos of the animal, and recording the location.  For calling frogs and toads, the app enables you to record and include a sound file in a record.  The date and time of day are also recorded.  The app features a searchable database of the common and scientific names for all of the world’s herpetofauna, and you can search for either type of name by entering just a fragment.  The newest version of the app allows you to add multiple photos and soundfiles to a record

The HerpMapper mobile app does not require wireless or cellular service in order to properly record locations - it uses your phone’s native GPS device, which remains in satellite contact when outside (many HerpMapper records have been recorded in remote corners of the globe).  Once you are back in wireless or cellular range, you can upload (sync) your collected records to the HerpMapper database.  Once uploaded, you can view any and all of your records from the HerpMapper website (www.herpmapper.org).  Creating a HerpMapper account is fast, simple, and free, and you can use the site and the mobile app to keep track of your finds, build a life list, and contribute to science and herp conservation!  Instructions for creating an account, and installing and using the mobile app, are listed on the HerpMapper website.

Who can see the records you create? There are two levels of visibility for records. Only you and HerpMapper Partners have access to all of the data in the records you create. Other users of HerpMapper and the general public can only see very basic information in your records – they do not have access to exact locality data. Any pictures attached to a record have their locality metadata stripped, so they can be seen by everyone on the HerpMapper website, which means you can also see the cool herps being recorded by other people from around the world.

Who are HerpMapper's Partners? For the most part, they are biologists working for state or regional agencies, university researchers, or conservation organizations across the globe. A list of HerpMapper Partners is maintained on the HerpMapper website.

## HerpMapper Reviews in United States

### ***** "W"
This app helps reptiles and amphibians conservation and helps me me keep track of what I find!
-- Poe Petty, 2025-08-13

### *---- "Won’t allow me to submit record"
I tried to submit a record and it won’t let me manually change location and the location it added from my own gps isn’t allowed because it doesn’t understand what my altitude is
-- Alie .,.,, 2025-08-04

### ***-- "Not for novices"
This app requires prior knowledge of the herp, it is not for ID like iNaturalist. Very basic login and rough search function. Could definitely use a young person to clean it up and improve UI. Has full citizenship science scistarter functionality though.
-- hederklowd, 2025-06-12

### *---- "False information"
I was got the app. I got in it, and found out there was one option. It showed me the main screen, and I only saw to make a progress tracker on herping. It didn’t show the recording thing or how to get any of the other screens.
-- Jud_VR, 2024-06-06

### *---- "Downloaded on IOS and error"
Didn’t work
-- arcwlu01, 2024-05-25

### *---- "Would love to use but it doesn’t work."
App just doesn’t respond to any interaction when entering a new record. Longitude and latitude don’t let you tap or enter any numbers.
-- HerpMappareview, 2024-05-22

### ***** "Good"
Its a cool app to record your finds, i wish you could see other peoples records though so you know where things are being found
-- mack is wack, 2021-11-13

### *---- "Horrible"
It’s like Christopher E Smith.  Horrible.
-- Kyles ipad12345678901, 2020-11-27

### ***** "Awesome!"
This is a must have app for people who want to help save these amazing herps!
-- aquacrystal11, 2020-04-28

### *---- "Bs"
I tried multiple different times to create an account and it refused to let me on
-- shitstainedunderpants, 2019-10-31
