This app is an amazing idea and a great help for me to map trees as part of college work buuuut it could definitely use some improvements. First of all the app is hard to use, the fact that you have to go through so many menus and screens to map a tree is disruptive, another huge problem i had is when taking picture, i have a samsung s9 so the pictures should look good enough but that isnt the case since the app camera doesnt focus or let me try to focus. I hope they fix it

Basic control and very easy to use. Only 2 issues I've had is that twice now the compass settings for taking cloud cover had been reversed (probably not a big issue on the whole). Also when software quits it remains in landscape mode.... No biggie but can be annoying. All in all I use it and it works well. Good luck with the data you get. 👍

The problem is when i am hoing to take observation their is only appear names and the questions not the pictures appear of the cloud type. when I try to send photos at the end of my observation, the pictures do not appear in the columns, and the gallery only shows blank white photos. I am sending eamil about this persistent issue but i am not get a reply of it. I didn't get reply of it. Edited

Trying to set up an account - not a good breadcrumb process.Dont know about anyone else, but it gets stuck in a loop at random points.
