Description of problem:
The phrase “iNat Next” appears in the Identify modal dialog.
This information indicates which interface was used to make the observation; it only appears for observations made using one of the apps, not the website. Sometimes this can be relevant when helping users troubleshoot problems.

The phrase “iNat Next” is no longer used by the project, so I assume it should be deleted from this interface.

Perhaps an app version number should be included here, if that is considered important information to have. It seems relevant to able to distinguish observations made with the Classic app and the new (Next) app. However, this is not a bug, as far as I can see.

Seems like a bug to me but depends on your definition, I guess. Anything other than “iNaturalist” will create future maintenance problems.
I have faith that it will be taken care of as the changes from i Nat Classic to iNaturalist continues. Sometimes it feels like everyone wants instant gratification and forgets how large iNaturalist has become and things still take time.
It’s not a bug as defined here on the Forum, it’s intentional, so I’m going to mark this as solved. I’m sure it’ll be updated later when we’re in less of a transition mode.
