iPhone
Catalogue every animal documented around you. Real iNaturalist data, real photos, your personal field guide.
Step out, scan your area, collect every animal on Earth.
Tracks turns iNaturalist's research-grade observations into a field tool that surfaces the documented wildlife around you. Tap a hex on the map to see what's been spotted nearby: birds, mammals, reptiles, amphibians, fish. Each comes with a real photo, scientific name, and the location it was last seen.
WHAT YOU GET
- A radar that scans the hex you're standing in for documented wildlife
- Real photos and species data from iNaturalist's community
- Your personal Tracks: every species you've collected, with a counter for repeat sightings
- Smart expansion in sparse areas (rural or open water) so you always have something to discover
- Location used only while you're scanning, never in the background
FOR FIELD WORK, WALKS, AND CURIOSITY
Use Tracks on a coastal walk to learn what shorebirds frequent the cove. Use it in a city park to see which native mammals the iNat community has documented. Use it on a road trip to discover regional fauna you'd otherwise miss.
DATA SOURCED FROM iNATURALIST
All observations come from iNaturalist's research-grade dataset under Creative Commons licensing. Every photo is attributed to its observer.

What's new in Tracks:
Batteries come back. Every hex re-rolls its charge each day, so a cell you emptied yesterday can hold another one tomorrow. No more neighbourhoods that run dry for good.
• Batteries now only show up where you can actually reach them: your own hex and the ones you've scanned around it, instead of anywhere you happen to scroll to.
• The battery marker keeps its size when you zoom out, so you can spot one while looking at the wider map.
• Cleared cells get their own pin on the map.
• Signing in and getting set up looks cleaner, and the messages when something goes wrong now say what to do about it.
• Counters roll to their new value instead of jumping, sheets fade in and out, and a message can be tapped to send it away.
• Everything you can tap is now labelled for VoiceOver.
