What is a wood identification app?

A wood identification app suggests a wood species from a photo of lumber, furniture, flooring, or a cut end. Wood Identifier : Woodio also shows grain notes and common uses for that suggestion. The result is a guide, not a lab certificate.

Is Wood Identifier : Woodio a free wood identification app?

People looking for a free wood identification app can download Wood Identifier : Woodio on iPhone at no charge. Wood identification itself requires Premium, a weekly or yearly subscription. The weekly plan starts with a 3-day trial. You are not charged if you cancel at least 24 hours before the trial ends.

What is a wood scanner app?

A wood scanner app uses the same photo workflow. You point the camera at lumber, furniture, or timber, and the app suggests a species. Wood Identifier : Woodio is that app on iPhone.

What can a result include?

A result can name a suggested species and describe grain, color, and common uses. It can include hardness and workability when those notes exist for the suggestion. Finishes, lookalike species, and a blurry photo can make the suggestion wrong.

How should I photograph the wood?

Use even daylight. Photograph the face grain, and add a fresh end-grain cut when you can. Skip glare, heavy shadow, and blur. End grain shows pores that face grain hides.

Can I photograph finished furniture?

Yes. Stain, oil, and lacquer hide color and some grain, so treat the suggestion as a lead and check an unstained spot when you can.

Are the results always right?

No. The app makes an AI suggestion from what the camera sees. Ask a qualified wood professional before you buy, sell, or rely on a result for a structural decision.

Wood Identifier : Woodio is an AI-powered wood identifier app that helps you recognize wood species from photos — built for woodworkers, carpenters, restorers, and curious DIYers.

What we build

The iOS app analyzes grain, color, and texture cues to suggest likely species and surface useful properties (hardness, uses, finishing notes). This website explains wood identification, publishes guides, and links to the app store listing.

Who is behind it

Wood Identifier : Woodio is developed by Mario Saputra (MarioApps). Content on this site is written to be practical and accurate; AI-generated blog drafts are reviewed against standard woodworking references (grain/pore patterns, Janka hardness, common lumber species). Identification results are estimates — not a substitute for a trained specialist when safety or legal timber compliance is involved.
