Getting Started with the Nature Almanac AI Beta
About Nature Almanac AI
Take Nature Almanac outdoors and turn every observation into a discovery you can keep.
Capture a photo or choose one from your library. AI suggests possible species and explains the visible clues behind each suggestion. After you confirm a candidate, the discovery is saved to your private almanac. Continue with scientific details, nature stories, and English vocabulary, turning one observation into an ongoing learning experience.
