NEW: What's Beneath Ever wondered what exactly is under your feet? Now you can find out. The new "What's beneath" section in Discover shows the rock record for your area - every layer, stacked on a timeline spanning millions (sometimes billions) of years. • See the surface geology where you're standing, with just your approximate location - or look up any place by name • Scroll a time-scaled column of the rock layers recorded for your region, from yesterday's sediments down to ancient basement rock • Spot the gaps - missing chapters of deep time, marked right where the record skips. Some regions are missing hundreds of millions of years • Just identified a rock? Tap "See the rock record beneath this find" on the result to explore the geology where you found it • Browse hand-checked famous columns - start with the Grand Canyon - no location needed, works offline Geologic data © Macrostrat (CC BY 4.0). Coverage is deepest across North America and growing elsewhere. Also in this update: stability improvements and crash reporting, so problems get found and fixed faster.

Share your finds Tap Share beneath any specimen to send your identification as a field-guide card - photo, name and key properties in a single image. No app needed at the other end.

Geology Toolkit 2.0 - A Field Guide, Reimagined This is our biggest update yet. We've rebuilt the app from the ground up to feel like the considered field guide you deserve. A new look, inspired by the field guides we love. Warm cream pages, considered typography, and naturalist-style sketches throughout. Designed for serious curiosity - whether you're a rockhound, a student, a professional, or just someone who picked up an interesting stone. Richer identifications. Every result now includes a full formation story - how your rock formed, over what timescale, in what conditions. Discover the companion minerals commonly found alongside your finds. See confidence scores and alternative matches when an identification is tricky. Build your personal field guide. Every identification adds to your collection, with sketches, properties, and your own notes. A reference you'll return to. A clearer free trial. Seven days free to explore everything. We'll remind you before it ends - no surprises. Plus: redesigned onboarding, improved formation analysis, and dozens of smaller refinements throughout. We hope you love it. Snap a rock, see what it is and discover the story behind it. - The Geology Toolkit team

Minor bug fixes to ensure you keep identifying rocks effectively!

Preview before you identify See your photo before sending it for analysis. Take your time, retake if needed, and tap Identify when you're ready. Add what you already know Entering a rock's hardness, luster, colour, or crystal system before identifying helps the AI give you a more accurate result. Not the right rock? Try again If the identification doesn't look right, tap "Not this rock?" to get a fresh result - no need to start over. Labels on sketches Toggle "Add labels" before generating a sketch to get geologically accurate annotations pointing to key features. More free uses Free users now get 5 identifications per week to get the most out of using the app.

Your identification queue now lives in your Collection tab! Look for the card at the top of your collection whenever you have photos waiting. A red dot on the Collection tab will remind you about queued items each time you open the app. When you're out of your free daily identification, your photo is saved to the queue so you won't lose it - and you can upgrade anytime for unlimited identifications.
