"An absolute must-have for anyone planning a walking holiday in the UK. The offline functionality was a lifesaver in the Highlands, and the fascinating folklore and history notes made every discovery feel like a story. It is more than just an identification tool; it is a deep dive into the heritage of the landscape."

The clear images make identification foolproof, even in the middle of winter when there are no leaves to be seen!"
