Comments on iNaturalist for Android

★★★★★ This is a phenomenal tool for citizen science! It is pretty accurate with its identifications as well. The community is very active and supportive. I would like to recommend the developers add additional information for species. Currently, it pulls a blurb from Wikipedia, which is a great start. I would specifically like to see info on physical descriptions and behavior as that is the most relevant to the task at hand, but I think there is a great opportunity for engaging community education.
★★★★★ Nice concept, but lacks functionality. Should have the ability to create folders for observations and also list observations alphabetically.
★★★★★ I love naturalist. It is best to use both the app and the website, as there are features that only the full website has, but the app is better for taking photos & uploading them. I prefer naturalist to other AI-based plant ID apps because it's not just an AI, it has a whole community and there are many experts, it's a social site, and you can use it to connect with other nature enthusiasts.
★★☆☆☆ I downloaded this to identify a plant growing near my house. This app does a million different things: You can "explore", "make observations", see what you've "observed the most", "flag as cultivated", create "projects", "missions", "messages" and "guides", "opt out of community taxon", "mark all as reviewed", "duplicate", "add notes", "add to projects", "edit observation license"...every time I look, I see some new "feature". There's just one thing it doesn't do: Identify plants.
★★☆☆☆ Long time user, I've been getting and issue over the last few days when trying to upload a new observation from my phone "photo format not unsupported". Picture is in JPG format, unedited and taken by my phone.
★★☆☆☆ I used to love this and have contributed many photos of local mushrooms/plants, but I only am ever told my mushroom is a mushroom. No actual ID and no actual help... I feel like I use the app all by myself 😐
