Include the stem, leaf attachment and growing context. Avoid filters that change color or erase fine hairs and markings.

Keep color useful
Use soft daylight when possible. Mixed indoor lighting and heavy automatic edits can shift color. Tap to focus on the flower, avoid digital zoom and take one wider image before moving close.
Expect more than one plausible name
Many flowers share color and overall form. Compare petal arrangement, leaf attachment and fruit or seed structures. A ranked suggestion is more honest than a single label when the evidence is incomplete.
Turn the bloom into a field memory
Oqvi keeps several views, the suggested identification, your note and an optional place in one discovery. Return later to add fruit, seeds or a seasonal change rather than starting over with an unrelated photo.
Identification results can be incomplete or wrong. Never rely on a photo or AI answer for edibility, toxicity, medical care, fire safety, structural use or another consequential decision. Confirm with a qualified expert.
Keep the whole discovery
One find. Several clues. A record that stays yours.
Identify plants, trees, leaves, flowers, bark and wood. Ask follow-up questions, add notes and keep an optional private map on your iPhone.
