It would be excellent if one thing were changed: when searching, you can't choose to return a range of results but must select a specific entry. For instance, if I want to find apple trees, I can't have it show me all apple trees together but must select from the 150+ varieties and display them one at a time.
The app is definitely more mobile-friendly than the website, selecting makers is much easier! The app is very basic, though, and would be a lot better with some additional features. It'd be great if we could mark favorite locations and if we could filter locations by most recently updated.
Excellent work it's a good start I'll be adding locations as I find them. I can't seem to get focus in the tell us more section below. I know this is a first release one of the features I'd like to see is being able to add more than one picture at a time. And I'd like to be able to select the picture I've already taken. Instead of just being able to take a new picture with the camera. Excellent work keep going.
I would really love to see this app updated and improved. I think that it has a lot of potential and like someone said below, if there was a Patreon/GoFundMe set up to help attract more developers and resources to support the app, I would be behind it. You could even try to download data (i.e. verified or research grade edible tree gps locations and species) from iNaturalist. Please, please update.
Wouldn't recommend spending money on this app. It's unusable. There are numbers of trees in the area but when you zoom in the numbers and pins disappear. Apparently there are only two fruit trees in the entirety of Wheaton. That's not only completely inaccurate but even with the app I can't figure out which two trees they are talking about. Maybe if more people were tagging the trees it would be better. Right now it sucks though.
Neat concept but for $5 this is missing some incredibly basic functionality, like pinpointing a location on the map through the list view. Instead I have to find what I want on the list view then go through EVERY unlabeled dot on the map to see where the specific entry is located. And if it's going to scrape data from iNatrualist with a URL it could at least make URLs clickable.
This is an incredible resource! However, there are some features I believe the app should consider adding: -Ability to delete/edit a pin you put up. I was out walking and it was hard to see my screen in the sun, so a pin I added was put in the wrong spot on the map. -I would love to be able to favorite pins. -I would love to have the map visible as I look at a pins details. -A feedback or reporting section within app so I don't have to use the reviews.
An app I want to love more but that is missing basic functionality, like labels in the map view (which ironically the free online version has) and a way to view an item from the list view on the map view. I hope my buying of the app can help support the developers in implementing these features so others will have a better time. As it stands now, it's hard to recommend a purchase.
Great idea, Needs updating. Several missing features are mentioned in most reviews. But to add to those, app is also missing filters of all kinds. Would be nice to filter by recent (lots of trees/plants no longer exist due to development in the area, etc), by fruit type, by in season, etc. What's the use in sifting through tons of entries from 2012 for fruit trees that, even if they did exist, would not have fruit for 5 months.
pretty neat idea, good looks and design (very similar to I naturalist) I would recommend adding a filter for only public property for the less sociable of us. and a search feature from the map/list view would be nice, rather than in the filter screen.
