Trees PNW FAQ
Is Trees PNW free?
Yes, Trees PNW is completely free and it doesn't have any in-app purchases or subscriptions.
Is Trees PNW legit?
🤔 The Trees PNW app's quality is mixed. Some users are satisfied, while others report issues. Consider reading individual reviews for more context.
The tips to identifying trees in PNW are well-written. Not just for beginners, there is something for everyone learning about our most common trees. App crashes frequently, especially on iPad Air, but I simply restart.
One photo error though — please fix! The “leader” photos for western red cedar and hemlock are identical.
PICTURES!!!
I'm so excited!! I was going to delete like I always do the second an app disappoints but I just couldn't for some reason. There is something about this app. It's so well done. It feels like a labor of love. I know the pictures not showing up is a problem and they did not load for me as well. But I kept it. And kept checking back. It's been a week. And today the pictures are all there. BEAUTIFUL images. I'm so glad I kept it! I've been trying to understand the forest I live in and THIS is the app for that. Thank you for all your hard work.
Fantastic Species Identification
Initially the Photos didn’t download, but a quick note to Support and the problem was fixed.
Beautiful, sharp Photos of all aspects and ages of trees. Abundance of identifying details given, plus discussion of historical and modern uses.
Best Tree App for the PNW I’ve found, by far.
Finally learning the trees!
Plus fix so that the pictures load! I love this app but after updating, the photos don’t load anymore.
I’ve bought so many tree books and have even taken a local tree ID class, but this app is what helped me the most when it came to learning and identifying trees in the PNW. Thank you for creating this app!
It’s back!
After downloading (and loving) this app years ago, it eventually ceased working, as other users described. However there was an update in March 2022 so I downloaded again and gave it another shot. And the trees are back! Everything seems to be working as expected. This app is great for people who want to proactively learn to identify local PNW trees without the need to pull out their phone. It’s a great companion to a more traditional identification app.
Yo
All is pretty legit! Only thing I would suggest adding is full photos of the trees in the identifying descriptions.
Wonderful APP Loaded with info
I have had this app for nearly four years now and granted there was an issue, but was resolved.
It truly is an amazing app with tons of detailed information of each species of trees along with several photos. Of the different apps I have on nature this is by far the best one. My hat is off to the developer, excellent job!
Newly rewritten
Hi, the app is newly rewritten. It should work fine in newer phones. Give it a try! Cliff
I hoped they fixed it but…
Still does not download. IPhone 12, great WiFi, nada. Please update your app—seems like so many want this!!
Trees PNW
Update 11/2021: I spoke with the developer a couple months ago telling him how much I missed the app. He said he was updating it and would get it done “soon.” I do hope he gets it done this winter. I would pay for this app. When it was working it was a 5 star app. Now it is a 1 star app. But I gave it a 3 star rating to split the difference. Keeping my fingers crossed.
This app used to work and it was my favorite app for tree ID here in the NW. But now it is broken. I opened it and there are only 3 species listed. No photos, no text for any other trees. Touch the #1 tree and nothing happens. I have tried deleting the app and downloading it again but it won’t download completely. Only 3 species! What the heck is wrong with this formally great app???
