Terrible memory leak. Have no idea why an app sharing photos of plants and animals could eat so much memory. Checking 50 activities made it crash 3 times

Best ever Biodiversity Monitoring App
Handy tool for keeping a log of different plants and animals spotted while outdoors and getting help from others in identifying them. Only wish the app had a dark mode; otherwise, the interface feels quick and convenient to use.
perfect for zoological people
app makes my walks more fun.
best app and trustworthy. community is helping me a lot to identify all kind of insects.
it would be helpful to be able to select the common name used in your area. or suggest one.
the visual identifier is heads and tails above other apps on the market that make you pay for basic information. this is a fun and great way to get outside. the missions add a game element to the app which is really great encouragement to get out and explore.
April 2026 - still seeing the same behavior as below. January 2024 - I'm frequently seeing the observation tiles displaying the wrong photo. If I scroll down and let tiles below load then scroll back up the correct photos are then back in their place.
needs the ability to filter by invasive species. for example, show only invasive plants on the map.
