Forest Tree Identification

ID is OK if you are standing by the tree. Not so good if you’re trying to ID from a photo.

Wants you to install scanner for $40 for 3 months. No thank you. Should identify from photos.

This app could be great. Instead it’s clunky, provides inconsistent info and pictures, and often plagiarizes Wikipedia. The search function doesn’t always work. The filter function is simplistic; the structure allows for either 1 attribute or all attributes per characteristic, e.g. brown bark or all bark colors (bark color and texture vary considerably within a species, depending on specimen age).

Not able to take pics to help with identification nor able to type in what little info I knew about the name of tree. Only identifying by pics they have stock. Definitely not like plant identifier apps

What I wanted was an app to photograph a leaf and identify the tree

Not user friendly and dumb. Glad I didn’t purchase it.

Useless app unless your already familiar with most deciduous trees. Don’t even try to identify an evergreen with it.

I am glad I found this. I have a huge tree came down last night in a storm. I help me to identify the tree.

Not user friendly.

1) a tree search when you already think you know the name but want to learn more or confirm 2) A division of tree locations in the US. Here in Georgia, I don’t need to look through species only in the Northeast. Even if it is as simple as a map divided NW, SW, NE, SE that would help speed identification up. Also, it would be helpful showing the range at the top when you click on the tree so you can quickly rule them out. These location filters need to be “default” on the filter so I don’t have to choose North Amer and US everytime. Please let me know if that is a feature I am just missing. It would also be helpful to “rule out” trees and permanently remove them from appearing on my filtered list. For example, trees on the coastline of Ga or Fl would not pertain to me. The user could choose those individually and create more a specifically list of possibilities in their range. I don’t know how complicated these suggestions would be but they are just my suggestions. I’m glad I don’t need to tote a book around anymore. Thank you for this app.
