MyNature Animal Tracks (6.99)
USER REVIEW
Version 1.0
REVIEW – “I never knew it was so easy to identify animal tracks but with the way this app categorizes tracks in their selection menu makes knowing what animal left a track easy to figure out.”
For all the apps I have purchased and never used again I’m finally happy to say I found MyNatures Animal Track app one that I will use repeatedly over the years to come. If you’re not an outdoors kind of person, then this app isn’t or you; but if you do anything outdoors-related such as hiking, camping, photography or hunting, this app is a definite one to have.
I never knew it was so easy to identify animal tracks but with the way this app categorizes tracks in their selection menu makes knowing what animal left a track easy to figure out. I have used field guides in book format for years and it was always a task to flip through the pages to find which track resembles the one I found. With this app it’s not only easy to identify the animal tracks but you can refer to the range map to make sure that track is in your part of the country.
The sound files are also a pretty neat feature. My kid loves the animal sounds and the gait images and descriptions were a great addition as well as an actual digital image of the animal’s track and the animal itself, which are some beautiful pictures. Great idea with the ability to write your experiences in the nature journal – I was a bit concerned with the price at $6.99 but compared to a book to lug around at over $15 and with the search features in this app, six bucks is a bargain. Highly recommended.
