Le app yeselula yasimahla isebenzisa isoftware yokuqaphela ukubonwa ukunceda ukuchonga iintlobo zemithi kwiifoto zamagqabi azo.
I-Leafsnap inemifanekiso emihle enesigqibo esiphezulu yamagqabi, iintyatyambo, iziqhamo, i-petiole, imbewu, kunye namaxolo. ILeafsnap okwangoku ibandakanya imithi yeSixeko saseNew York kunye neWashington, DC, kwaye kungekudala izakukhula iquke nemithi yelizwekazi lonke laseMelika.
Le webhusayithi ibonisa iintlobo zemithi ezibandakanyiweyo kwiLeafsnap, ingqokelela yabasebenzisi bayo, kunye neqela lamavolontiya ophando asebenza ukuyivelisa.
