BugLens: Insect Identifier

Point your camera at a beetle, butterfly, spider or bee and BugLens tells you what it is.

Take a photo or pick one from your library. BugLens identifies the creature with AI and gives you its name, a short profile and field notes.

WATCH, DON'T TOUCH
Every result comes with a clear safety note: whether the species is known to sting or bite, and when to keep well clear. AI identifications can be wrong, so BugLens errs on the side of caution. Never handle or approach a creature based on an app result.

BUILD YOUR COLLECTION
Each new species goes into your collection with your photo and the date you found it. Locked slots hint at what is still out there waiting to be found.

YOUR MAP OF DISCOVERIES
Save a location and the sighting lands on your own map, exactly where you found it. Share it if you like: others only ever see an approximate area, about 200 m, never the exact spot. In the background, real insect records from the GBIF open-data network show where people have looked before you.

PRIVATE BY DEFAULT
No e-mail, no password. BugLens creates an anonymous account for you automatically. Sign in with Apple is optional and only needed for the map. You can delete your account and every photo from inside the app.
