Bug Identifier & Insect: Buggy

About

What bug is that — and does it bite? Point your camera at anything with six legs and know in seconds. Buggy identifies insects, spiders and household pests from a single photo, then answers the question you actually care about: is it harmless, does it sting, is it venomous, or is it eating your house? IDENTIFY ANY BUG • Snap a photo of any insect or spider (or pick one from your library) • Get the species, the scientific name and the group it belongs to • A clear safety verdict on every scan: Harmless, Stings, Venomous or Pest • Practical advice — treat the sting, remove the pest, or leave the pollinator alone • Lookalikes named for you: the hoverfly that isn't a wasp, the house spider that isn't a recluse WHAT BIT ME? • Start from the mark, not the bug — tag what your bite looks and feels like • Itchy welt overnight? Cluster in a line? Blister? Each tag narrows the list • See which species leave that mark, and the signs that mean call a doctor SPECIES WORLD MAP • Every species in the guide plotted on a world map • Filter by harmless, stings, or what's flying right now • Season windows follow your hemisphere, so spring means spring where you are • Plus: find the parks and gardens near you worth exploring FIELD GUIDE & ALMANAC • 30 species with full profiles: size, habitat, diet, range and fun facts • Life cycle timelines — egg to larva to pupa to adult, stage by stage • Sting pain ratings for the species that can actually hurt you • Eight illustrated guides: bee or wasp or hoverfly, pantry moths, clothes moths, house spiders, fireflies, bug-watching with kids HOUSEHOLD PESTS • Four shelves: pantry and stored food, wood and structure, fabric and carpet, kitchen and bath • Know what you're dealing with before you buy a spray FIELD LOG • Every scan saved with its photo, date and place • Add your own sightings and notes • Watch your species count grow WHAT YOU GET Every day you get one identification at no charge, and it is the whole answer: the species, the scientific name and the safety verdict — harmless, stings, venomous or pest — with the practical advice that goes with it. That verdict is never withheld.
