The recognition feature either uses your cell phone's camera or a photo from your own gallery and presents you with an identification probability. The algorithm is not perfect and may give overestimated probabilities (in particular a probability of 100% should not be considered exact).
Around this functionality, it is also planned,
- A wiki of about a thousand species with description, photos and more.
- A photo gallery divided into "Favorite" and "History" (your observation).
- A map from your own collection with access to photos from the cloud (requires internet).
