Getting there

The book is an absolute gem but this app is just a bit...well....buggy.
Pictures don't fit the screen, the hand drawn pictures are cute but diminish the experience and navigation is clunky, but the detail is there if you persist.
I'd be disappointed if I had paid something but given it costs nothing we should all be grateful for such easy access to the awesome information you will find here.
Fantastic for the fly fisherman out there and any amateur bug enthusiast.

If only all field guides were this good

This app is a very helpful resource for the field identification of waterbugs. Great for citizen scientists, enthusiasts and freshwater ecologists in the field. There is also lots of other useful information for each Waterbug including size, habitat, movement, confused with and SIGNAL scores.
Great work!!

I fly fish and find your Ap a very useful way to identify what is in the water.
