PlantSnap Pro: Identify Plants
authentic ratingA one-time purchase instead of a subscription draws people in, and in the desert or for experienced foresters the app sometimes helps for years. But accuracy is around half for many, familiar and common plants get misidentified, the tropics and Caribbean are barely covered, and the old version before the switch to bubbles was clearly better liked than the current one.
Store 4.47 and a text average of 3.0 at 37 percent five-stars, but reviews are concrete and specific: confusing Queen Anne's lace with crepe myrtle, tropical results in zone 6b, use since 2017. Ratings are honestly distributed, the weak rating matches real complaints, and there are no signs of inflation.
