About Berry Identification
Spotter identifies wild berries and the plants that bear them from a photo, with prominent safety notes. Some wild berries are edible, some are toxic, and a few are dangerous — so the golden rule is simple: never eat a wild berry based on an app, a website, or a hunch.
Use Spotter to learn what is growing around you and narrow the possibilities. The decision to eat anything wild belongs to a knowledgeable expert in person, never to a screen.
Tips for Better Identification
- Photograph the whole plant — leaves, stems, and growth habit — not just the berry.
- Capture the berry cluster and how the fruit is arranged.
- Never eat a wild berry based on an app result. Identify to learn, not to decide.
- For any question about edibility, consult a local expert in person.
