The Ultimate app for discovering and identifying the trees of South Africa. TheTreeApp SA is a sophisticated tool for smart phones and tablets to identify indigenous and invasive, alien South African trees. The Second Edition is a two-in-one app that contains both the Original version (simple English terms) and the Botanical version (classical Botanical terms). Therefore, you only pay for one subscription per year but you receive both versions of the app. Users can switch between versions on the app home screen. The language differences apply to the search, text, and captions. Both versions include all South African trees, and all species’ artwork, photographs, and maps. If you are a currently registered, paid-up subscription user you will automatically be entitled to the upgrade for the Second Edition for no extra payment. This is automatic on some devices. Other users will already know from previous upgrades how to do this using the App store. If you are a new user, you can now download and test the free Evaluation version of TheTreeApp SA, covering a limited number of trees (155). To load all 1 399 trees, you must upgrade to a yearly subscription of R179,99. Once loaded using WiFi, no internet is needed; but satellite coverage improves the map and Location search experience. In the full subscription version, you can choose your location to reduce the Tree List from 1399 species to the actual number that grow there naturally. In both versions you can follow the easy, step-by-step Tree Search process, and match characteristics of your tree to those on the app. Select the relevant tick- boxes and watch as the number in the Tree List reduce! Tree details are in artworks, photographs, maps, and texts. The powerful, rapid, and highly intuitive random Search function provides the user with much more than just a keyword search and makes it possible to discover and learn to love South African trees. It has an inbuilt education system; based on clicking InfoHotSpots, for explanations about anything that is not clear. Icons and texts cover virtually every aspect of the App's functions. In Settings on the home screen, you can select your primary and secondary language choices from Scientific, English, or Afrikaans. In the Tree List you can search for a species by name, using any of the 11 South African languages. In addition, the Sightings function allows you to add and list the names of your own personal tree discoveries. You can type in notes and record GPS locations. A glossary gives access to botanical words from/used in the Botanical app and in other more complex publications. *** MTN App of the Year Winner 2017 – Agriculture (Conservation) ***
Well worth the purchase, especially for growers
I germinate and grow many species of Southern Africa trees and shrubs, especially those with edible fruits and nuts. This application has opened up a whole new world of selection as a grower but also fantastic information for each species. I’m one of those types that finds the limitations of say a Wikipedia when it comes to African languages and African species of flora and fauna. Apps like this more than fill that gap. As a speaker of African languages it’s refreshing to have not only the scientific names, which I depend on, but the Afrikaans names that I love. I cannot say enough good things about this app. I will recommend it to any of those interested in Flora of Southern Africa or for other growers here in my expat community in Florida and the southern USA.
Many new and improved icons in the Tree Search. New images and updated captions. Edited species information data. Deactivated the Bioregion Location search option.
