FloraQuest: Northern Tier

High Country Apps, LLC

Full screen

The best experience. The app is redesigned for the inner display and uses the extra space, for example with a sidebar, extra columns or two panels side by side.

Redesigned for the full inner display with zero letterboxing: • Two-Pane Taxonomic Keying: Dichotomous and graphic keys take full advantage of the dual-panel canvas, keeping diagnostic steps visible alongside illustrated glossary entries. • Edge-to-Edge Macro Photography: Tens of thousands of botanical diagnostic images render across the large screen for detailed inspection of floral structures and venation. • Adaptive Postures: Supports fluid transitions between handheld one-handed trail use and flat book/tabletop layouts for side-by-side specimen comparison.
