Very limited territory

Vast majority of Ontario not within locations mapped. This app only covers about 20% of Ontario, being Southern Ontario, and north shore of Lake Huron. It’s too bad, because one of the cool features is that it considers location when identifying plants. Anyway, still many of same flora in rest of Ontario, but you just won’t get location as an aid to identification for most of the province. Maybe a future update.

Love this app

Would like to see a Warning added to items that are poisonous to people and pets.

Need an app that is suitable for cell

Tried it and deleted.
Very awkward to use wirh IPhone.
It is based on your inputting by crosshairs, your location but it then warns that it doesn’t work well with IPhone. I need something that works with my cell. I don’t drag larger formats along when out for a walk.
