As someone who is an arachnophobe, this app is so helpful in identifying spiders that find their way in my house. The description let's me know if it's harmful or not. So that makes me less anxious or maybe more anxious depending on if it's a very dangerous spider. Either way, I'm glad to have an app that seems to accurately identify bugs. I have actually learned a whole lot. And the app saves all the bugs so I can track what kind of bugs have been showing up over time.

This app worked well for me however, I'm giving it 4 stars because it was free when I downloaded it. To my surprise, the last time I tried to use it, they wanted to charge me a subscription fee. Sorry, but that's a bait & switch as far as I'm concerned. It was free for several years, now all of a sudden they want me to pay for it? Nope. I won't. At least should stay free for the people who have had the app for years. I will be uninstalling.

I love this app. Today, I was checking on some insects I'd photographed as well as a new one I found, and I thought, "I should just go ahead and buy this and support them." So I went to purchase, and unfortunately, all the options are subscriptions. I can't justify a subscription for an app I use less than once a month. But, if y'all ever want to offer a one-time premium upgrade for a decent price, I'm in!
