Features & Capabilities

Seek by iNaturalist uses image recognition to identify living things around you. Open the Seek Camera, point at plants, birds, fungi, and more, and it suggests species from the iNaturalist database. Earn badges for observing different species and completing challenges as you explore the outdoors.

This kid-safe app requires no sign-in by default and respects privacy. Your location is obscured to help protect privacy while still offering nearby species ideas, and precise coordinates are not stored unless you submit observations with an iNaturalist account. Built on iNaturalist data and backed by conservation partners, Seek invites families to learn about the life around them and have fun while helping science.

So I got this app because I wanted to learn more about insects and animals. I learned some new stuff. But my aunts dog is like a mix of 4 different of dogs, and I wanted to learn a little bit an about what she is. So a take a picture and it tells me she is a white polar bear???!!!??? (My aunts dog is dark brown and black). Ok so I get that you can’t tell me all the breeds she is but at least tell me she isn’t a polar bear. So I give this app 3 stars since I learned a little bit.

I’ve had this app for about 18months. At first it was great and then I guess they did an update. Now the app barely works and will not identify anything like it used to.
