    Some better photos of the leaves would help an app figure it out better

    Try a shot up into the leaves with just leaves and sky in frame

    Try another with a clear example of the leaf organization (similar to yours with the grass background) but with a different colour background

    If you know a bit about leaf anatomy you could use a tree identification guide like this site:

    My guess would be pear like the others say.

    Out of these I'd say pear is most likely, possibly a crab apple or plum also so not narrowing it down much! It's 100% not an Acer at least!

    That's the fruit developing post-flowering, not a budding flower btw, so go back to see how it develops and you should get a pretty good id soon. I don't think plum fruits would look like that and crab apples aren't typically so long stalked and more often in bunches, but I wouldn't expect any plum/pear/apple to be so long stalked eitger, so perhaps a variety or species I'm not familiar with! Don't know anything about Brazilian plum or mountain date though.
