Rock ID - Stone Identifier Reviews

As an educator, Rock ID has become an invaluable asset in my classroom. RockID ’s extensive library and detailed information on various stones have revolutionized the way I teach geology. The identification feature is a hands-on way for students to interact with the subject, making learning more engaging. With the way young generations experience this world through their phones, it’s high-time we adults got on their level and used new tools like RockID to make them interested!

rock id is basically my rock-collecting sidekick now! The stone library's like a treasure chest, spillin' deets on every rock. Identifying rocks on my hikes? My new ritual, and the update just made it cooler. Creating my digital collection? Easy peasy. Rock ID, you're stuck in my digital toolkit! 🌟

I like it however, I’m not sure how accurate it is, the first one I took was iron stained quartz but the color was of from what it showed but over all I like and I’m happy I found but creator who made try to make it I little more accurate.

I tried about 10 rocks and somehow this genius app decided that all of them were flint, every time. Eventually i guess I ran out of free runs with it and wouldn’t show me the rock unless I upgraded my membership. Overall this is a waste of time and irritated me to actually write a review. Take that as you will.

I bought RockID , it would let me take pictures of the crystals and then did nothing.
Trying to get your money back is a joke. Don’t waste your time, has to be one of the worst apps I’ve ever purchased. It gives you nothing.

I collect gem stones and do shows, and I have found a few stones that I wanted to confirm on what type of stone it was.

I had a raw cut lapis Lazuil, but It told me it was a sedimentary rock, so I wanted to test the product. I grabbed a rock I know is red jasper, but it told me it was carnelian.

I would not trust it.

Positive note, it give a lot of information about Rick’s, but the pictures does not match both times I attempted. Maybe RockID was having a off day.

I kept getting recommended for RockID, so I downloaded it tried it myself and it doesn’t tell you if it’s real or fake it’s a scam. If you want to have fun with it that’s all you can do don’t recommend it

After trying different times, couldn’t read my rock. I have a moldative and can’t even recognize the name if i type it.

I had this wild-looking rock, snapped a pic, and bam! Identified. My rock collection just got way cooler!

I tried this in stones verified by professionals and it is so far off! Don’t waste your time or money!!!!

As soon as you open it asks for a credit card- I wish I could give it 0 stars because it DOESN’T work

Saying my engagement ring is cubic zirconia—it’s certified diamond. Ruby came up as diamond. Maybe rocks on the ground are more identifiable. It did not work for me

Didn’t identify almost all of my crystals and I had like 16 that’s ridiculous

Gave me a diamond answer for my Moldavite.
I used natural lighting and latest iPhone camera.

RockID was terrible kept saying diamond and gold it’s not even close!!!

Great idea yet accuracy isn’t it

First, it says it's free, but then demands you pay. Then, it identified a moqui marble (dense iron concretion as quartz. Utterly worthless for identifying minerals.

When I try to take my fourth photo, it says that I need to pay 19.99 a month which is ridiculous!!!!

Downloaded purchased got the trial then deleted immediately and cancelled.Its not a real thing. It could not id a ruby. I was using it to determine whether the rubies were garnets or not. Suggested that these gem cut stones were agates. Quickly deleted RockID . Not worth it. Without proper technology to id stones your cellphone is useless unless you snap a photo and send it to a gemologist it can not really do what RockID is suggesting it can. Perhaps some stones can be id’d with a cellphone camera but not realistically. For instance if you expect RockID to determine if your diamonds are real or not forget it.

I just want to know how accurate RockID really is. I have so many rocks I’ve found out at my family’s country house but I’m not sure how accurate this is with identifying the rocks I find.🤔

Checked my GIA certified diamond and it says it’s cubic zirconia because it’s internally flawless🤣unless my jeweler secretly swapped it out, RockID has to be wrong.

Tested it on many known stones. Didn't get any of the correct.

App is a joke, saying white diamonds are black obsidian. Said a natural ruby was a brown quartz… My favorite was it said my other white diamond was AMBER. lol 🤣

Not accurate at all

Snapped a picture of the same stone three times and it gave me three wrong identifications for the stone.

RockID helped me identify a strange rock in my yard. I didn’t want to toss it until I knew what it was. I think RockID will come in handy for curious gardeners like me!

Identified stones in my yard in seconds, really easy to use. Love RockID

The slick interface, instant response, and that genius AI for identification—total tech magic. Big ups to the devs for the accuracy upgrade. Creating a collection? Next-level cool. Whether you're a tech geek or just love rocks, Rock ID blends tech and nature like nothing else!

This rock app is great for identifying crystals!!!!

Over half of my crystals were misidentified.

I’m a rock hound and took great photos of basic specimens I have like amethyst, fluorite and several others and except for citrine every result was wrong. I want my money back!!!!

You can’t trust RockID they much

I’m using this for identifying rocks to polish. Every time I scan a rock it gives me a bizarrely wrong response (eg. Says a dark, igneous rock is quartz). Not reliable and not useful. ChatGPT would probably do a better job.

Some rocks are identified incorrectly. Larimar, for instant, is not in the list. Other rocks, which I know what the stones are, get identified as something else.

Rip-off

Keep taking clear shots of a turquoise ring however I just keep getting a message that says to place an object inside the box, which I clearly did and nothing happens

The integrated camera in RockID is horrible, takes a very out of focus picture for small gems which make them impossible to identify. Might be ok for larger rocks, but not gemstones.

Tried it on several rocks and it wasn’t even close

Used the free 3 day trial. Cancelled the subscription same day. They continued to charge me for weeks after that.
