★★★★★ "Greedy. I shouldn’t have to pay a MONTHLY subscription for knowledge. It should have been a one time purchase of the app. Never using I’ll use google since they at least care." - Nsejfhdidi

★★★★★ "Inaccurate. If I could post the photos I’ve taken and then the results I’ve gotten you would understand why I give it 1-star. I’ve taken photos of the same insect from different angles and get completely different results each time." - lyftsux1980a

Inaccurate
I applied a test to the app and it failed ok the very first insect. It confused a beetle with an eastern termite. You are better off studying and learning your local insects or you’ll windup getting the wrong pesticides
Greedy
I shouldn’t have to pay a MONTHLY subscription for knowledge. It should have been a one time purchase of the app. Never using I’ll use google since they at least care.
Phone apps are too expensive
If it was 40 once that would be fine but mobile app developers do the subscription model. As a software developer I can tell you that the app is nice and works but way too expensive
Stupid app!
This stupid app gave me a free trial and was not supposed to charge me for a subscription! And then come to find out they took $39.99 out of my account and now I don’t even have money to buy what I need. Why would I pay $40 for something when I can look up the info on google. Stupid!! I need my money back. Also there’s no way to contact them that I have found so I can’t get my money back. So annoyed rn.
Extremely misleading. This is not a free app. It is a free one week trial.
Just another fake “free app”.
Scam
The app is a scam you need to pay 40 bucks just to take a picture of a bug bite and see what it is
terrible
of course ANOTHER stupid app where you have to pay before you do anything. i'm not paying for a app that i don't even know actually works. bot reviews, bot ratings
Inaccurate
If I could post the photos I’ve taken and then the results I’ve gotten you would understand why I give it 1-star. I’ve taken photos of the same insect from different angles and get completely different results each time.
Free trial is misleading!
I was trying to go for a free trial as your app suggested and selected it and I was going to pay the $2.99 month thereafter. But which it automatically charged my card for $ 39.95 indicating that that would be a per month charge! Ridiculous! And the reason I got the app it doesn’t even do anything to help me out with identifying pests in my home! This is for people who I guess love to learn about insects. But it was not described like that on the description. I was also supposed to get a seven day free trial before my card would be charged and it charged me immediately. I want a refund of the total $39.95 charged to my card. I will never be using this app.
Not even close!
This ap said it is a fruit fly. I wish it was!The picture I researched and found it to be the most disgusting bug I’ve ever dealt with.
It invaded my
Body the female laid eggs in me it’s a CORPS FLY. It will go done six feet when it smells a corpse they like to eat rotting flesh make huge infected spots and are very hard to irradiate.

Not a free app
Not a free trial. You have to authorize $39.99 payment to try it out.
Not worth a hoot
I submitted three pictures of the same insect and received thee different identifications. Not really helpful.
Charged immediately for “free” trial
I signed up for the 7-day free trial and was charged $17.99. Don’t try it if you’re actually expecting a free trial. You’ve been warned!
Trash. Couldn’t use it cause it requires money and subscription. Not a free app and scammy.

No
I will not subscribe stop asking
Picture insect: bug idenifer
ONLY 2 pictures a day like what if i see three so horrible wouldn’t recommend
Hmmm,
Good app but not for kids
Not accurate
I took a picture of the same insect multiple times and each time it gave me a different name. Very inconsistent.
It’s okay
I give this two stars because on the App Store it’s free but when you get on the app you have to pay or have a free trial for 7 days. But this was helpful finding out species of ants I saw in my house
