Nudibranch ID Indo Pacific

purchased but can't download

This app has great potential and is a good start, but still needs a bit of work. More species in the database is always good, but the photos could be better resolution and *please* optimise the app for iPad. I am a dive instructor and marine biologist and want to use this to identify nudi's I find - the resolution of the photos is often too poor for that, even on iPhone. I love the search function but it could be tweaked - when you search for something, you need a way to click on an animal, then return to the list - at present you have to go back through the whole process. Maybe a set of breadcrumbs and the ability to swipe to view other animals in the search shortlist? Also including the range of distribution in the description would be very useful. Anyway, great start and I'm thrilled that there is something out there - but introduce more functionality and bigger pics and I will tell everyone I meet to buy it!

A dive friend recommended the app on a dive trip this weekend. As a new diver who is fascinated by nudibranchs, it was amazingly simple to identify all my finds from this weekend's dives. And the extra background info has enticed me to want to learn more! Thanks for this fabulous resource.

This is a brilliant app for any nudibranch researcher or student. It is eady to use and well laid out. The search tool is simple to use and thoughtfully compiled. The images are of a high standard and identifying nudibranchs is now a lot easier. This is a high quality app and an essential tool for those who love nudibranchs. Well done

An absolutely awesome, very functional, heap of bells and whistles. Has everything that you could want or need. Ideal for checking you finds and keeping a record of them. Great just to look at the most understated critter in the water

Brilliantly designed and executed, this App. is without doubt the best Nudibranch Identification eGuide available and will no doubt become criteria that all others will be judged by. Not only does it have the greatest number of species, (700) every image is exquisite and the best available. The functions are simply astounding and it is plain to see that the writer, author, major photographer and developer, not only has a great love of his subject, BUT also has a thorough understanding of his production and need for well thought out precision for a large range of search functions and criteria. The introductions to specific groups has been written with the reader in mind and has precise information, uncluttered by too much scientific jargon and polished with "easy to read" facts in layman's terms, yet its scientific thoroughness is no less by any means. I have no hesitation in recommending this App. to anybody with the slightest interest in Marine Natural History, be they Scuba diver, snorkeler, student, naturalist, or reefcomber, as the most up to date, convenient and precision App. for the identification of Nudibranchs and if you haven't been hooked yet, you will be. Once around the block on this App. and it will have you "begging for more!"

What a great app. I have been using it for only a short time but am very impressed with the range of critters, the photos and, especially, the search functions. I love the ability to search by colours and the checklist function. It former has enabled me to id. critters that I could not find leafing through texts. Sent a photo of one I could not id. to the author and he responded promptly with the id. and offered to make some changes in the next update that will improve the versitility even more - talk about service! 700 species - so many more to find. If only my iPhone worked under water the app. would be perfect!

Wow! What a fantastic app. I only play about 30 mins and I already love it. Awesome… 700 species from Indo-Pacific right into my phone! Now I don’t need to find a book or search on the internet when I go on any diving trip in SE Asia and Australia. It also has 3 features that I really like… One is useful search tools; I can search by colour combination, size or family… Second is the detail of each family, I can learn more about each family and behaviour… Third is I can tick which Nudibranch that I have already seen. So far only 193. Still 500+ to go :-) If you are a Nudibranch lover like me… You gotta love this App :-)

Nudibranchs are the most beautiful animals in the ocean. They are found inter-tidally as well as under the Arctic ice. This App will bring awareness to people that don't know about them. Imagine living your whole life without eyes or limbs. This App is beautiful and informative. Nothing else in nature is so varied in size and color. I hope this awareness brings happiness to you. Enjoy.
