I love this app even though it has some flaws. When I go into the woods, the app can't determine my location. Sometimes the app suggests wrong species. At other times it can't accept a more generic identification and shows only possible identifications my phone would have to have a microscope for. I'd like the algorithm to switch to the genus, when it can't find the correct macro species or microspecies.

I really love using the app to see what's around me, however, I can't see any of my previous observations in the app anymore since the last few weeks. I would also like if the badges included more different types of plants instead of just the "plants" badge. I can see my old observations again, no clue why I couldn't before, for some reason it only showed the observations I'd done in that session.

Hilarious. Tried twice on live basilica. On both occasions I received 3 different possibilities, the correct answer was never there. Tried on the leafs of a tomato plant, also 3 possibilities not oncluding the correct one. The housecoat was recognized correctly though 🙄

Ok for common species, but no way to correct identifications or add a location to photos without exif data. Makes it much harder to use consistently than naturalist.

I need help. When I take a photo within the app I am able to upload it with a location. When I take a photo just on my normal camera and upload it though obs identify I am unable to upload it as it says I do not have a location for the photo
