Oregon Wildflowers

★★★★★ I do not like the strong arm sales technique of "Buy before you try". But as this app came recommended, I went ahead with the purchase while on a hike with LTE service. The app is so big that it warned me not install it unless I was on Wi-Fi. So I did that 2 hours later when I returned home. But I immediately realized that the person who recommended it must have had it confused with another app because there is NO ability to use a photo of the plant you are looking at to narrow things down. And 2 hours later was too late for a refund. But in the end I looked through the information in the app and feel there is enough there to justify the $9.00. I tried identifying a couple of wildflowers I know and was not successful using the characteristics to get to them. So I don't think it will be too helpful for actually identifying the plants upfront, but I will look for another app to do that. But once identified some other way, this app will provide a lot of information with the descriptions, range, etc.

★★★★★ Worth it! Very helpful and convenient. The species descriptions are rather short, but it's a great quick guide for reminders of plant names, family descriptions, and images of plants. All the scientific names are up-to-date!
