      For some reason, I am terrible at identifying trees, shrubs, weeds and plants. No idea why. Unless there's a big plaque in front of a tree identifying it, I can't tell a weeping willow from a Sequoia.
      Does anyone know of or use an app to help identify this kind of stuff? It would be nice if something like this was an option on my onX app.
I used to be cute and adorable. Then, I had my first birthday. Been downhill ever since.

Someone told us a couple of years ago that when you are going to take a pic on your iphone that you can click on an icon that will tell you what is in the picture.  I did it with a tree we have and it worked great.   Now I don't see that icon on my camera.  ???

After I took a pic I then could click the I and it would identify what was in the picture.  Worked on the dogs and some trees.  I tried it on the wife and it didn't say anything.  LOL

Ya a while back I posted it, but I had to refresh my memory on it. Soo looks like 2 ways on the android,  if you hit Google in the upper right corner is  camera symbol,  click that and you can either take a pic or upload one from your gallery.  Might hafta expand the pic but play around with it.

      Thanks. I may have to do a little experimenting with my phone and see what kind of trouble I can get in to. Shouldn't be too hard.
      My wife took a picture of a bug resting on my thumb. Whatever app she used said it was a big toe. I guess it didn't see the bug.
