Built for careful use
A starting point for observation—not a verdict.
Visual identification can help you narrow the possibilities, but it cannot replace medical advice, licensed pest inspection, or expert species confirmation. Insect Identifier makes those limits clear where they matter.

Questions before your first scan.
Straight answers about results, photos, subscriptions, and supported subjects.
What can Insect Identifier recognize?
The app is designed to visually assess insects, spiders, and possible pests from a photo. Clear images with visible markings and body shape produce the most useful evidence.
Is the result a professional identification?
No. Results are AI-assisted visual assessments for general information. They are not medical advice, safety certification, licensed pest inspection, or expert species confirmation.
How can I improve a result?
Use even light, keep the subject sharp, avoid heavy zoom, and capture more than one angle when important markings are hidden.
What happens to my photos?
A selected photo is transmitted to the AI service needed to generate the requested result. Saved observations and identification history remain on your device.
How do subscriptions work?
Optional premium plans are billed through your Apple account and renew unless canceled in App Store subscription settings before the renewal date.
