Identify any plant
If you’re out visiting friends or a local park and wonder what plant you’re staring at, PlantSnap has the tools to help you. With a vibrant community sharing images and details, the built-in search algorithm will quickly find any matching photos. From there, you can find which one looks the most like your specimen.
Find out how to care for them
It helps to know how to care for and maintain plants, especially if you’re growing them at home or as bonsais. PlantSnap has vital information on what the species needs to survive, such as water, light, and humidity. You can also view the taxonomy to see which family it belongs to.
Vast database
Sometimes, you already know the plant’s name and don’t need to upload a photo. In these cases, you can use the search function to look through the library of over 600,000 species. It contains mushrooms, cacti, trees, flowers, and so much more.
Build your collection
One exciting aspect of the app is that you can save the plant information you want to keep in a collection. It lets you access it more easily the next time you want the details instead of searching again. The images are saved to the cloud, so you can also view them from a different device with your account details.
A large community of plant lovers
It’s fantastic what can happen when a community comes together to build a database of plants. PlantSnap is merely an app with some coding, but it is the plant lovers that add all the essential information. There’s a low chance of you not finding the species you’re looking for.
