Plant App: Plant Identifier
gamed ratingThe job is the same, learn the plant and what is wrong with it, but the app handles it poorly: for many, identification simply returns nothing, three photos of one tree give three different names, and wrong care advice is dangerous for real plants. On top of that, recovering the account after every major update loses all saved plants.

About the rating
Store 4.7 versus a 2.88 text average and only 38 percent five-stars, with those five-stars nearly empty while the substantive reviews complain wall-to-wall about failed identifications and lost saved plants. Such a gap with almost no concrete praise points to rating inflation.
