Linnea: Plant ID & Herbarium
Identify & collect wildflowers
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Snap a photo of any wild plant. Linnea names it, tells its story, and gives it a page in a herbarium you can share. No account, no ads, one-time unlock.
Linnea turns wild plants into a digital herbarium.
Take a close-up photo of a plant you find on a walk. Linnea identifies it, lifts the plant out of your photo, and turns it into a specimen of its own, with its name, the date, and the town where you found it. Every find takes its own numbered place in your collection.
WHAT MAKES LINNEA DIFFERENT
• Every photo becomes a specimen. You keep the original photo, the cutout, and a framed card for every plant.
• A herbarium that fills up. Watching the empty slots fill is the whole pleasure of it.
• Every plant has a story. Short sections tell you how to spot it, what not to confuse it with, where it grows, and something worth knowing.
• A map of your finds. Linnea remembers the town, never your exact location.
• Share it with anyone. Turn your herbarium into a beautiful web page and send it to friends, family, or a teacher.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
No accounts, no ads, no tracking. Your photos stay on your phone until you decide to share your collection. Location is saved as a town name only, never coordinates.
MADE IN FINLAND
Linnea grew out of the Finnish school tradition of the kasvio, the pressed herbarium every schoolchild makes. It works in English and Finnish, anywhere plants grow.
ONE-TIME PURCHASE
Your first herbarium is free, with as many plants as you like. A single purchase unlocks unlimited herbariums, forever, on all your devices, with Family Sharing. No subscription.
Identification uses AI together with curated botanical data, and it can be wrong. Never eat or touch a plant based on an app identification.
