I.D. Wood App Reviews

Beautiful app. Complete, illustrated and practical ! Nice work !

All the most common species are there but its quite a limited list. Tried looking up Mexican Parota because I am doing a project with it but its not there. Im also turning some pens with Camphor wood but that too isnt listed.

Good idea but needs more. There are a Lot of popular woods that are not included. Great idea will be better after an update!

As a cabinetry student, this app is indispensable. It contains tons of wood species, pictures, and practical uses, as well as a reference guide to woodworking terms. Great to have around as a wood worker.

As stated before, it needs a larger database & it also crashes everytime I try to access the bookmarks.

Excellent photos and descriptions. Looking forward to even more wood species being added!

I loved this app before. Now I love it even more!! The ability to e-mail pages to customers and other trades is such a bonus!! Love it!!

Just loaded v3.01. Some serious bugs as crashes often, pages overwrite each other so cannot read, slow navigation and often returns to incorrect pages when using back arrow. Looks like has great information but unusable until bugs fixed which I trust will be soon.

Quick and easy reference

Very easy to use. A great sales tool when selling anything related to wood.

I work for a cabinet shop that builds and repairs furniture. This app is a very good reference and has settled many arguments about identification and usage of woods.

If you work in the millwork industry this is must have app.

Extremely limited, does not cover many popular trees! Waste of my money $$$! I will stick to books instead of this!

Excellent program with some bug but the best in the world. I dont find some wood.

A very abridged and and lightweight compendium of wood species. Not much specific information over species. Its more of a "common wood at a glance" than a complete ID tool. Many species left out or lumped into groups even when they are distinct woods. Photos are often not representative or are difficult to identify even with common woods like Douglas fir. More complete info available online wood ID sites and in books. Probably an ok app for the occasional woodworker or curious. Pretty disappointed as a professional. As it stands this is a $1 app, not $5. Save your money and get a book.

Its a decent help, for a moderate amount of woods. The problems would largely be a lack of images for the woods. If anything, there might be an end grain picture, and one other image. The addition of a back function, a full list of thumbnails, without needing to select a letter category first. The last update being more than a year ago isnt confidence inspiring, either

Tons of information

Great product❗️ Tons of reliable info in 1 (1️⃣) Place

I thought this app identified woods from a photo taken with my phone. This is not the case and if you have no idea what type of wood youre looking at this app isnt going to help. Plus, there is a lot of searching and scrolling to find information. Im annoyed I paid $5 and now Im just going to delete it from my phone because Ill never use it.

Would love to see the browsing mechanism change though--not a fan at all. I dont need to go through three pages of descriptions just to look at the next wood grain image in the database. Please change it so you can flip through the images only and pull up the info window only when interested in that particular grain.
