Snap it.

Point your camera at any wild animal and Critterdex names it on the spot — then turns it into a collectible card. There are 214 to find. A pigeon counts.

Free to start. No account needed to catch your first.

The Critterdex collection board — caught birds like a barn owl and blue tit in full colour next to grey silhouettes still waiting to be found, 48 of 214 caught.

How it works

See it, snap it, and it’s yours.

No field guide, no guessing. Three taps from spotting an animal to a card in your book.

A fox at dusk, half-hidden in the grass. You’d have walked straight past it.

The book

One book. 214 species.

Everyone starts with an empty book of grey silhouettes. Every catch fills one in. Everyday animals are first-class here — a house sparrow earns its page next to a badger.

Rarity

From everyday to once-in-a-summer.

Every card carries a rarity. The animals you pass every day fill the common tiers; the shy and the seasonal reward you with rarer art the deeper you go.

Head outside, find something alive, and see what it turns into. The first page is one snap away.
