This is my dream app

I’ve been using Seek and iNaturalist in tandem since they came out. As a wildlands manager, ethnobotanist, and backpacker I continue to try every species ID app out there and these have been far and away the best (though Cornell’s Merlin app combined with eBird is great for bird sound ID). This app takes it up a level by essentially combining the two. I can’t express how impressed I’ve been with the developers continue improvement over the years, really listening to the advice people offer, and I just want to express my gratitude. Thank You

Significant improvement

As of Fall 2024, the developers are still working on the App, it I think this is a great improvement over the previous version.
The app is also a wonderful gateway to resources that help us learn about the living things around us, contribute to science, and connect to a community of people invested in spreading and sharing knowledge about biodiversity.
