Good one I like it most family is covered with necessary description but is not stable with latest Android version marshmallow.. More improvements are required.. Giving some examples and more diagrams will be more useful

The key is decent, but the family information is not stable on my Samsung 7. No scroll = uninstall

Characters should be known to students properly

I'd love to use this app, but since the meaning for each term (What does a erose or a repand margin look like?) isn't stored in my brain I can't use it without an additional botanical glossary. Simple answer - add a botanical glossary to the app (I've never seen a print key without a glossary) linked from each term and with pictures (line drawing fine so not to bulk app up further). Then I'll love the app and return to it and use it frequently. For now, I'm still hunting for a good ID app.

Just wow. This is going to be gold for all levels of plant identifier. I will recommend to my university systematics class at Iowa stats. A lot of potential

Otherwise, you would be very frustrated by the speed, or the lack of. It is extremely slow and to find a plant can take many minutes.
