Spider, moth & risk level
Point your camera at an insect or a spider and get a likely match in seconds. Every result opens with the species' risk level, sting or bite note and closest look-alikes.
Insect Identifier turns your camera into a field guide for insects, spiders and the small arthropods beside them. Point it at something on a wall, a leaf or under a log and get a likely match in seconds, with the species' risk level at the top.
WHAT ONE PHOTO GIVES YOU
- The common name, plus a second name where there is one
- The Latin scientific name, or the genus where a photo stops
- The species' risk level: harmless, stinging, biting, allergenic, venomous, disease vector or unknown
- The group, order and family: insect, arachnid, myriapod or crustacean
- Habitat, range and adult body length
- Diet, metamorphosis type, and its role as pollinator, predator or pest
- Whether it can sting or bite, and how it behaves
- Look-alikes, each with its own risk level and what separates them
- A confidence level, so you can see how sure it is
THE RISK LEVEL LEADS EVERY RESULT
A short label from a fixed set: Harmless, Stinging, Biting, Allergenic, Venomous, Disease vector or Unknown. It belongs to the species, not to the arthropod in your photo and not to the room you are standing in, and it is never a number, a scale or an instruction. Harmless is a description, not a clearance: for an unfamiliar large arthropod this app says photograph it from a distance.
LOOK-ALIKES, SIDE BY SIDE
Every result lists the species it is most often confused with, each with its own risk level and the trait that tells them apart: a hoverfly beside a honey bee, a house spider beside a brown recluse. A comparison to read, not a verdict.
SPIDERS ARE NOT INSECTS
Eight legs and two body segments make an arachnid, six legs and three make an insect, centipedes are myriapods and woodlice are crustaceans. The result names the group before it attempts a species. Bees, wasps, ants, beetles, moths, caterpillars, ticks, cockroaches and pantry pests are in scope, and so is whatever is on the tomatoes: what it eats and its role there, never how to remove it.
BUILT FOR THE PHOTOS YOU ACTUALLY TAKE
Through a window, at an angle, from as far back as you wanted to stand. Leg count, body segments, antennae, wing pattern, eye placement and markings go into the match. Many flies, beetles and small spiders need a microscope for a species call, and when a photo cannot support one the result stops at the genus or family.
ASK, AND KEEP WHAT YOU FIND
Every scan can open a thread about that species: what separates it from its look-alikes, how to tell an arachnid from an insect. It stays on arthropods. Each scan is also saved on your device with its photo, so a season in the garden becomes a list. No account.
WHO IT IS FOR
- Anyone who found something indoors and wants a name
- Spider watchers who want the group and the look-alikes
- Gardeners working out what is on the leaves
- Naturalists, macro photographers and hikers
- Parents, teachers and children on a bug hunt
HONEST ABOUT WHAT A PHOTO CAN DO
An identification here is a best-effort AI suggestion, not a determination. Insect Identifier gives no medical, allergy or pest-control treatment advice. For a severe reaction to a sting or bite, especially difficulty breathing or rapid swelling, contact emergency services. It does not read skin and it has nothing to say about removal. The risk level is background about a species, never an instruction about the one in front of you.
Identification needs an internet connection. Scans you have already saved stay on your device and can be reopened at any time.
The app interface and the results are available in 33 languages.
PREMIUM
Free includes 2 identifications per day. Premium removes the daily limit and opens the full detail sheet on every result. It never changes the risk level or anything else a result says about safety. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the period ends, and you can manage or cancel yours in your App Store account settings.
