Free for iPhone · Beta now preparing for Summer 2026 launch
See a lanternfly or egg mass? Open Spotted and take a photo when you're ready to report.
Choose Squished It, Just Spotted, or Scraped It. Identification may use on-device analysis or iNaturalist when needed.
See sightings on the map, climb the leaderboard, earn badges, and confirm whether your report saved now or is waiting safely offline.
Compete with your neighbors and see who's reporting the most impact in your area.
Build daily reporting streaks, level up, and earn badges for milestones.
See where lanternflies are active in real time. Hotspots update as reports come in.
Track your reports, streaks, XP, badges, and latest report status in one place.
Report egg masses during scraping season. Every mass scraped prevents 30–50 nymphs.
No sign-up needed. Spotted does not store photos on its own backend, and public location is shared as approximate geohash data, not exact coordinates.
Spotted lanternflies damage crops, weaken native trees, and threaten wildlife habitats across the eastern U.S. Every sighting or egg mass you report gives communities, growers, and researchers better visibility into where the invasion is spreading.
