About Can I Eat It?
Ever spotted a wild berry, a leafy green, a mushroom, or a curious bug and wondered… can I eat it?
Point your camera and find out. Can I Eat It? identifies plants and insects from a photo and tells you what it is — plus whether it's edible, toxic, or best left alone. Everything runs right on your phone, so it works out on the trail with no signal and no account.
WHAT IT DOES
• Identify plants — snap a leaf, flower, or whole plant and get the most likely matches from 2,000 common North American species.
• Identify bugs, fungi & lichen, and animals — photograph it and see what it probably is.
• Edibility at a glance — clear, friendly verdicts (Dig in! · Careful · Toxic — nope · Who knows?) for your match.
• Bug Snack Guide — a curated field reference of which insects are safe to eat (cooked!) and which to avoid.
ALWAYS FREE — SAFETY COMES FIRST
Identifying is free, and so is every safety detail: the edibility verdict, cautions, and dangerous look-alike warnings are never locked. You always see what a thing is and whether it's safe to eat.
OPTIONAL ONE-TIME UNLOCK
A single purchase — no subscription — adds the extras for people who want to go deeper: every ranked match beyond the top guess, and the full "how to eat it" detail (edible parts, preparation tips, and seasons) for each result.
WHY YOU'LL LIKE IT
• 100% on-device — the AI model is built into the app. Your photos never leave your phone and are never uploaded.
• Works offline — perfect for hikes, camping, and foraging where there's no signal.
• No account, no ads, no tracking.
• Fun and friendly, not a dusty field manual.
IMPORTANT — PLEASE READ
Can I Eat It? is a fun, educational helper, not professional advice. AI identifications can be wrong, and many plants, fungi, and insects have dangerous or even deadly look-alikes. Never eat anything wild based on this app alone. Always confirm with a qualified local expert, use the Universal Edibility Test when foraging, and cook anything you do eat. When in doubt, don't.
Happy (and safe) foraging!
