This application is very dynamic as it allows you to upload up to 4 photos of the same plant for better results. 

Additionally, there are some details and fields to fill in to find out if it is a flower, a tree or a leaf. There are around four thousand species in its database.

iNaturalist

If you are looking for rigorous descriptions, this is your app. It is developed by scientists and engineers from the Polytechnic University of Ilmenau and the Max-Planck Institute in Jena. 

Once the species is identified, it includes details as specific as how it spreads or whether or not it is in danger of extinction. It is especially intended for wild flora.

NatureID

Its great advantage is that it works without an internet connection and with all services. It is made in collaboration with the Royal Botanical Garden and has a glossary of terms about the plant. A very professional application.

The added value of NatureID lies in its ability to diagnose diseases, directing you to the treatment that you could apply to the plant. It also identifies animals, providing information about the species, habitat or care they may need.
