User Reviews

Reviewers largely report that Bug Sound Identifier Insect ID is unreliable and expensive. The app frequently fails to identify insect sounds, even when insects are loud and nearby, and many users say results are inconsistent or unusable. A major theme is paywalls: mandatory upfront payments or subscriptions, with few or no free trials, limited free attempts, and aggressive upgrade prompts that interrupt testing. Several notes compare the cost unfavorably to value, calling it wasteful. A minority report occasional successes or educational value, or usefulness for pest control professionals, but reliability and pricing dominate sentiment.

Pros

Occasional successful identification of insect sounds when the app works.
Some educational value about insects and their sounds.
A few users, including pest-control professionals, find it useful in certain scenarios.

Cons

Requires upfront payment or a paid subscription, with few or no free trials and reports of poor value.
Frequently fails to identify insects by sound, even in noisy environments or near loud insects.
Free usage is severely limited (often one free attempt) and can be consumed by testing the wrong portion.
Persistent upgrade/paywall prompts disrupt usage and block progress.
Overall price is perceived as too high for the level of reliability.

This app couldn’t even identify a cicada sound and they charge an outrageous amount of money for an app that doesn’t even work

I downloaded this app for the reason of identifying insects, at night, by their sounds/calls. I tried 3 different times, and it did not work at all. When I would hit playback, no sound would play; furthermore, it would say no insect detected. So, I am going to be uninstalling this app. I am going to stick with the Seek app, and Google for identifying insects.
