Tree ID - TreeID with Fall Foliage App Reviews

65 add

unfriendly

Launching this app causes Music to stop playing.

Does not identify much of anything

This app needs much more development as it lacks a huge number of common trees. Also, the tree id function is not very user friendly - I tried numerous times on several trees, but this app returned no results. The hand sketches are pretty mickey mouse. Not worth the time even if it were free.

Not very thorough

The photos and descriptions are great, but there just isnt a large enough database. I tried to identify several trees--even trees that I knew their names--and none were listed in the database. I dont find this app very helpful. More trees, and adding spring flowers would greatly improve it.

Tree ID- Good Idea - Poor Implementation

This program concept is good however this program is poorly done. The "ID A Tree" feature definitely needs work! In a one of the ID catagories the Help does NOT match the items for selection (Leaf Base)! I did find it interesting that there were many aspects to a leaf that I was not aware of, however after spending considerable time plugging in all these values I had No Results for what I think is a fairly common tree in the south eastern US. The program should give you some feedback here!!!....such as a list of possible trees listed in order by the number of positive "hits"! It does give possible results sometimes, if only a few categories are entered. Since entering all these catagory (or ID selections) can take a fair bit of time, it should at least automatically save this effort and give you the option to clear or restore on returning to that program feature (also if you accidently leave the feature or you answer a PHONE CALL all is lost !!!!) . Go to Airplane mode if you use Tree ID!!!

Wow

Wow, its amazing. There are so many trees

Pay Again

Why am I being asked to pay for this application. I already purchased it once? Doesnt make any sense!

so-so if you know what your looking for

What about searching by bark type? Also, if you dont know what type of leaf (palmate etc) its pretty tough to use... And it doesnt have Japanese Maples? Are you kidding me? I want my money back!

Golden Raintree

Pretty good app but why is the Golden Raintree not included?

Crash Issue

Everytime there is an update, the app crashes at start up. This is the third time I have deleted and downloaded this app, but unlike the last two times, it still is not working. The information is good but useless if you cannot get to it.

Update on 8-4 crashes without starting.

Cant get it to work even once

Not worth $3.99

Got this app a month ago, worked 4 times. Then it crashed. The new update doesnt even make it work. Not worth that kinda money!

Crash!

Yep, mine started crashing upon startup after the last update. What a piece...

Does not work

The updates cause the app not to work.

Update crashes, mediocre app when it does work

Latest app wont run on 3G phone running version 3 iOS. Database isnt very extensive and searches are frequently fruitless.

Meh

This app was ok. It was advanced for most of my students who needed to use it. Since the "upgrade" the thing crashes all the time. Save your money until further notice.

No problems here...

Running iOS 4.0.1 with no problems/no crashes... Im sure an update to resolve any issues is coming but as I am not experiencing any problems I would suggest deleting and reinstalling via iTunes...

STILL DOES NOT LOAD

The update 8-4-10 makes the entire program crash at start-up. NO response from author. I sent all the requested information about my iPod Touch 2. Try AUDUBON TREES to learn about the trees.

Update July 14

To all users MEDL is working on a fix and we are working on a new dichotomous key interface.

Please get this app to work

I am dying to start using it, but I have downloaded it three times and whenever I click on the icon to start, it crashes. :-( It seems I am not the only one having this problem...

Waste of $$$

Far too technical for the average user, doesnt include explanations or photos of various scientific descriptors needed to search the database (ie, is the leave shape ovate or obovate? A silhouetted image would help here.) Also, the descriptors are too exclusive. For example, selecting a "leaf size" of 2-2.5 inches may exclude the proper result because the database characterizes it as a 3" leaf. Incorporate camera recognition for us dummies and this app will be a blowaway hit!!
