Virginia Tech Tree ID Customer Insights

1. ☺️🍁🍃🍂🌿Took over an hour to download option one and if you open any other app or anything it starts over... I get highspeed internet... at first I thought it was their servers then I noticed that without using any internet it artificially slows itself down with loading its own filed that it has already downloaded...A bit cumbersome to use.

2. If it works on your phone, it contains a wealth of information.I just redownloaded the app and entered the location and 0 trees show up, whereas last time I had it downloaded, it worked fine and was very helpful.

3. I'd give 9 starts out of 5, except: 1) you can't zoom in on the photos--they're good but you can't access any detail (earlier versions, at least for iPhone, permitted this); and 2) I hate that they've made the photos the default view--this app is about information, not about pretty pictures.

4. Now it all good.I've been using this app as my go-to tree ID tool for about 5 years now and I absolutely love it! I've used it in the field, on casual strolls, and even hanging out with friends.

5. I would love a consolidated place to note location, ID tips that I've picked up for my regionWhat a great resource if I do not have a tree key with me which happens all the time.

6. I finally uninstalled it when it couldn't find any species that fit my descriptionI just downloaded this app so my review is based upon my seeing the trees that were included for the locations that I inquired on, ( which I am familiar with most species of these areas).

7. The current system is clunky and really gets in the way of the information.Annoying bug freezes after the plant description have to work around by doing a force stop and then opening again.

8. Thank you!!Prior version was fantastic, unfortunately it doesn't work anymore on my Samsung galaxy s8 after update in mid 2019.

9. I live in the northeastern US and have found this app to cover nearly all of the native and naturalized species found throughout New England.

10. Cannot recommend due to the bug.Was looking for a resource to supplement my identification books while in field.

11. If you're trying to id a tree, and don't get the final key choice right, you have to go back to the beginning every time.
