Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about wood identification, photos, and practical next checks.
Can I take a picture of wood to identify it?
Yes. Take a clear photo of wood grain, bark, a cut end, furniture, flooring, or a tree, and the app analyzes visible clues to suggest likely wood types or species. Use the result as a starting point, then compare grain, color, texture, and context before making project decisions.
How accurate is the wood identification?
Wudora uses AI wood identification to compare visible details such as grain pattern, color, texture, bark, and leaf clues when available. Common woods with clear photos are usually easier to narrow down. Rare, stained, painted, or heavily processed pieces may need extra checks or multiple photos.
What types of trees and wood can the app identify?
Our app can identify a wide range of tree species and wood types from around the world, including hardwoods, softwoods, exotic species, and common varieties. Whether you have common species, rare trees, or exotic wood, our database includes extensive information to help identify and learn about your discoveries. The app is perfect for nature enthusiasts, woodworkers, forestry professionals, students, teachers, and anyone curious about the world of trees and wood.
How do I take the best photo for wood identification?
Use good lighting and keep the surface in focus. For lumber, furniture, or flooring, capture the grain, color, texture, and a cut end if visible. For trees, add bark, leaves, and overall shape. Multiple photos from different angles can help when the first image is ambiguous.
