Location services "always on" huge turn-off

You do not need to track me/my device when I am not using the app. I won't use an app that requires this. Please make it your number one priority to offer the "only while using" option in your very next release. Thank you.
Well designed, very easy to use!

This app is very helpful in identifying wildlife and trees without slogging through field guides that cover large geographical areas. My only suggestion is social media integration so that people can share wildlife that they've spotted and bring new users to the app.
Great for leaning locals

Could use a better search by features and a folder for spiders and beetles, but great for all around general identification. It's a great small app. Please get the spiders up in an update sometime though. I would pay a few bucks for a good local spider identifier app
Great idea, neat implementation

Really wonderful how this app gives you a very well-done field-guide tailored to any location worldwide. I don't know of any other app that does that - something specific to that project it seems. You can also record your sightings straight in the app to share them with others and make them public. I think that full integration beats other efforts out there currently, and it has become my go-to naturalist app. Hope they add more groups and make it easier to use the app when away from a network. But already ... thanks!!!
Fantastic app to see nature
ZoeaMar
An easy to use app to identify the nature around you wherever you are. Unlike other natural history apps it spans across multiple groups (birds, mammals, trees) and has a great interface.
So far, great, with one bug

I've been looking for something like this. As far as I know, the comprehensive nature (across animal types etc. ), excellent implementation, and location dependence together are unique. The app is very well thought out and implemented so far. I do think its long term success will depend on how well it can share across other similar efforts. Bug: Search for Species on iPhone6 iOS 8.3 does not work. Search button on keyboard does not do the enter function, it looks like.
Very good Nature app!

I really enjoy this app. It makes it easy to find animals in my area, and learn more about them. I like the UI and it helps having many pictures attached to the animal "profile"
Some good some bad

The extra long list of what is around us seems to take in several states. Perhaps countries. Colorado likely has no red deer. Elk yes. Red deer seem to be European. Not likely to see armadillo here either. But I do like that it keeps a list of what I do see. Thus I will keep it.
