No cost. I've done some testing on it, and for me at least, it doesn't work as well as TapTapSee does. Quite a number of times it just quit when I gave it a picture. I would wait for a description, and the app just closed itself. I don't mean it stopped running, just went into the background

This app sounds intriguing, but the descriptions you give here that the app gave you don't sound any more detailed than those that I've gotten from TapTapSee. Someone else posted that they got more detailed descriptions though, so I guess I'll check it out. I have an iPad Mini 4 with 128GB on
