LeafSnap Plant Identification

Identify plants from a photo

LeafSnap Plant Identification is an education app for recognizing plants, flowers, and trees with a phone camera. It suits home gardeners, students, hikers, and anyone who wants to learn more about the greenery around them without searching through a field guide. Take or upload a photo, and the app compares it with its plant database to suggest an identification.

More than a plant finder

The app also supports practical plant care. Users can keep track of tasks such as watering, fertilizing, and pruning with reminders designed to help maintain a regular routine. A water calculator and care calendar add useful context for people looking after indoor plants, garden beds, or individual specimens.

Check plant health and nature finds

LeafSnap includes a health diagnostic feature for plants showing signs of stress or disease. Uploading a picture can help identify possible problems and point users toward treatment information. The app extends its visual identification tools to mushrooms and insects, making it useful for basic nature study as well as gardening. Toxicity information can also help users check whether a plant may be unsafe for people or pets.
