Snap a plant, find out if it's safe to feed your tortoise. TortoScope identifies the plant from your photo and gives you a clear safety rating — based on a catalogue of over 800 species with practical, keeper-focused advice.
You've spotted a wildflower in the garden and you're not sure if your tortoise can eat it. You're foraging on a walk and want to know what's edible. You're checking a houseplant before you bring it into the habitat. Take a photo, get an answer.
TortoScope is built for the tortoise-keeping community — Russian, Hermann's, Sulcata, Leopard, Marginated, Greek, Indian Star, and Hingeback owners. It's also useful for keepers of other herbivorous reptiles, including green iguanas, terrapins, and the herbivorous turtle species.
HOW IT WORKS
• Snap a photo of a leaf, flower, fruit, or whole plant
• The app identifies the species and cross-references a tortoise-feeding safety database
• See a clear safety rating, the parts to avoid or feed, and the reasoning behind it
• When species identification isn't certain, you still get useful guidance at the genus or family level — so common safety patterns (Solanaceae, Apocynaceae, Polygonaceae) still apply
WHAT'S IN THE CATALOGUE
Over 800 plants, including:
• Wildflowers, weeds, and garden herbs commonly found in UK and US gardens
• Vegetables and salad greens you might already have at home
• Houseplants — both safe options and the toxic ones to avoid (Pothos, Philodendron, Dieffenbachia, Sansevieria, and others)
• Tropical species for fruit-eating tortoises (Redfoot, Yellowfoot)
• Grasses for grazing species (Sulcata, Leopard)
• Cacti and succulents (including Opuntia)
Every entry includes:
• A safety rating: Safe, Feed in moderation, Feed sparingly, or Do not feed
• Toxic compounds named where relevant (oxalates, saponins, cyanogenic glycosides, calcium oxalate raphides)
• Which parts are safe or unsafe and how often (if ever) to offer it
• Reference photos so you can confirm the identification yourself
• Notes on similar-looking species you shouldn't confuse it with
Browse the full catalogue, search by common or scientific name, and check anything you're considering for the enclosure or habitat.
WHY GETTING THE DIET RIGHT MATTERS
Captive tortoises rely on their keepers for nutritional balance. Wrong-food choices contribute to Metabolic Bone Disease (MBD), shell pyramiding, gout, and digestive problems. Even safe plants can cause issues at the wrong frequency — too much oxalate blocks calcium absorption, excess protein stresses the kidneys, and the wrong calcium-to-phosphorus ratio undermines shell development. TortoScope gives you the data to feed a varied, safe diet without guesswork.
PAST IDENTIFICATIONS
Every scan is saved to a gallery, grouped by species, so you can build a record of what you've found in the garden and what you've offered. Useful for reviewing your tortoise's diet variety, or for sharing with a vet if a problem arises.
ABOUT THE SAFETY INFORMATION
The advice in this app reflects established tortoise-keeper knowledge and the conservative principles experienced keepers apply to a varied diet. It's intended as guidance — if you're ever unsure about a specific plant, your tortoise is unwell, or you're keeping an unfamiliar species, consult a reptile vet before feeding. The app supports good husbandry; it doesn't replace UVB lighting, calcium supplementation, regular weight checks, or any other element of proper tortoise care.
