1. ★★★★★subscription trap

   Bogus free trial and no customer service response. **UPDATE** Even after their reply here I have sent 2 more emails and have never heard a response. Don’t fall for their BS. Don’t listen to them about their 3 day trial. You get the trial and you are paying $40+ for a year. Didn’t help me as I expected but paid for the year anyway. Customer service didn’t even bother to reply at all. 1 star for that fact alone.

2. ★★★★★subscription trap

   Scam. Showed a 3 day free trial available, when I clicked it to try out the app, it immediately charged my bank for the yearly premium which is the most expensive package they have.

3. ★★★★★subscription trap

   Oh my gosh. I signed up for the least expensive one year plan. Tried it, did not like it, so within 30 minutes, I cancelled my subscription and I am still going to be charged for the whole year. Be careful, there is NO trial period

4. ★★★★★subscription trap

   False free trail Advertising. Went to use and tapped for the free trial charged me anyway right from the start

5. ★★★★★wrong or vague results

   Disappointed. Search is terrible

6. ★★★★★subscription trap

   Not free. Can’t even open the app without signing up for a subscription. Searches say there is a free version but I can’t navigate past the page that wants my credit card. I don’t mind apps that charge a fee. I mind being lied to.

7. ★★★★★subscription trap

   What trial?. As soon as I opened the app it prompted me to subscribe. Waste of time.

8. ★★★★★app crashes and errors

   No diagnosis. So far, I have not been able to use this app because every time I try to take a picture and diagnose my plant says I don’t have a network connection. I do it just doesn’t work.

9. ★★★★★undismissable ads

   And we're done.. Congrats, developers! You ruined a great app. Used to be one of my favorites, now the constant, unskippable, obnoxiouly loud full-screen ads have spolied things. And the pop-ups! Deleted, good-bye!

10. ★★★★★undismissable ads

    Too many ads and intrusive pushy paywall UI. The core functionality will take you many more clicks than needed as the developer pushes you pay and view ads and grant global permissions to all your photos. Is so disruptive I’m giving up on the app and even trying to make it work.

11. ★★★★★undismissable ads

    Annoying App. There are too many pop-ups trying to get me to upgrade. I don’t want to upgrade, just identify my plant! Stop with all the pop-ups!

12. ★★★★★subscription trap

    Always forcing you to pay $29 a year. LeafSnap is one of the worst apps suggesting you can use for free. Yes, you CAN use for free, as long as you dismiss each and every time the paid subscription LeafSnap places in front of you. Just not worth expending the tedious energy

13. ★★★★★undismissable ads

    Use something else. This app used to be easy but now drives the user through advertisements, tries to upsell and generally makes it an annoyance. For the subscription, use a different app.

14. ★★★★★other

    Not USA COMPATIBLE. I’ve asked them to add inches, feet into their measurements, instead of just meters, centimeters etc… I’m tired of having to do the conversions! It’s very rude they don’t care!

15. ★★★★★app crashes and errors

    Not on 17pro. Was working great on my IPhone 15. Got a new iPhone 17 pro and when you go to take a picture to identify with it shuts off. Yes camera and photos are enabled. Also deleted it and reinstalled it. Same thing. Please fix the bugs in it

16. ★★★★★subscription trap

    Scam. They offer a free trial that is not free. Customer service non-existent. Use google search instead same results. Better use ChatGPT.

17. ★★★★★subscription trap

    Not free. Disappoints me that it is not freee🙁

18. ★★★★★other

    No gallery access only. This app has changed and you can no longer just use your photo gallery to upload an image. You now must given the app permissions to your camera before you can use an image in your gallery. There is no need for this and makes the app unusable for those who do not wish to give strangers permissions to their camera.

19. ★★★★★subscription trap

    Tired of “free” apps not being free. Advertise as free but then once you download it says free for 3 days. 4th app I’ve tried like this in 10 minutes. This trick should be illegal.

20. ★★★★★subscription trap

    No Bueno. Too difficult wanted too much information. All I wanna do is cancel it and I just started it.

21. ★★★★★app crashes and errors

    ?. I have a subscription but the app says I don’t. ?

22. ★★★★★app crashes and errors

    This app is terrible. Always crashing and having network errors

23. ★★★★★other

    Delete app. Which should be able to delete apps which my phone will not do

24. ★★★★★subscription trap

    Please Cancel free trail & subscription today!. It’s Not what I thought it would be. And it appears not to have a way to cancel the subscription without a penalty after 30 minutes!! Please cancel this subscription ASAP!

25. ★★★★★subscription trap

    Waste of money. I paid for the annual membership, and this was a waste of money. It is difficult to use and the few times that I used the app, I was directed to make a purchase to use it. Diagnoses were inconclusive and suggestions were not clearly made. Was even difficult to submit a review.

26. ★★★★★other

    Navigating the app. This app for me anyway, is impossible to navigate. I wish someone would contact me and teach me how to use it

27. ★★★★★subscription trap

    So annoying. I keep on wanting to other things but it all cost money!

28. ★★★★★wrong or vague results

    Wrong. I went around my yard and snapped 14fruit trees and a goji berry. The only ones it got right were the mango and the pomegranate.

29. ★★★★★subscription trap

    What a joke. I was using the free version and getting too many answers that did not match. So I paid for a month, and got the same answers. Several which were wrong. My apple identification on photos was far more accurate.

30. ★★★★★wrong or vague results

    LeafSnap. I tested this on a plant that I already knew what it was and it said it was a completely different plant. It didn’t work
