Ratings and Reviews
Excellent app...
...with a few minor quibbles. Changing the preferred names (English vs scientific) renders the ‘all species’ chart unusable (screen goes all black on iPhone and all white on iPad), presumably because the ‘all species’ chart doesn’t list the English names, which I think it should, given that the vast majority of users will always use the vernacular names. The text mentions detailed anatomical structures which (as far I can tell) aren’t defined within the app. All that being said, it’s still a very useful app.
Very useful and modern guide
Downloaded this app tonight and I can't wait to use it for real. It's features are great. The illustrations are very good. Pics and video look great and will be really useful to me for the species that I haven't seen before. The best feature for me is the ability to compare similar species side-by-side.
If you like bees get this app you won't be disappointed.
Brilliant
Fantastic app. Loads of information and videos etc.
A little bit pricy but well worth it .
