    Rip off. Each time I use it it just sends you to a website for whatever plant it thinks it is identifying. It does not give you any hints on whatever disease your plant may have.

  2. ★★★★subscription trap: impossible to cancel, keeps charging

    Scam. This app will not allow cancellation

  3. ★★★★aggressive paywall: can not use app without paid subscription

    pay for app. I already pay for the application I’m not going to pay Again for info on taking care of a plant I will drop this application if it continues

  4. ★★★★subscription trap: impossible to cancel, keeps charging

    Treatment. Does not give a treatment as it described before I subscribed. Not happy!! Gonna unsubscribe and cancel

  5. ★★★★subscription trap: impossible to cancel, keeps charging

    I canceled this,. Return my $4.99. Thank you.

  6. ★★★★inaccurate identification: wrong plant names given

    Do not purchase this app. They will charge your credit card monthly and have no way to stop. I will have to now go through my credit card company. And the plant identification is inaccurate

  7. ★★★★inaccurate identification: wrong plant names given

    The app is not identifying the right plants. The app is not identifying the right plants. I have taken several pictures of different ones.

  8. ★★★★aggressive paywall: can not use app without paid subscription

    Subscription. Can’t use unless you want to pay just skip this app

  9. ★★★★other

    Fair. Not an easy App for me to use. The $3.99 cost per month is not worth it.

  10. ★★★★subscription trap: impossible to cancel, keeps charging

    Stop Badgering Me for a Rating. It’s reasonably accurate, maybe around 50%. What the devs excel at, however, is putting nag screens in between you and doing what you got the app for: identifying plants. I yielded to the repeated pleas to subscribe, thinking I’d then be permitted to get on with it. Nope! Please rate me! Are you ready to rate me, yet? Send feedback to the devs! How about now? Now?! Screw this app. Subscription getting cancelled at the end of this term and I’ll find an app that just identifies plants. Added: Put unsubscribe in the settings where told me I could find the unsubscribe option. Had to go to my Apple account to unsubscribe. These devs appear to be engaging in some shady practices. My review: don’t install, don’t subscribe, uninstall, and find a different app.

  11. ★★★★aggressive paywall: can not use app without paid subscription

    Unbearable app. Every 5 seconds asking to upgrade, how can I upgrade the app if I don’t know if it’s good or no? Jeez

  12. ★★★★subscription trap: impossible to cancel, keeps charging

    Can’t cancel. Really bad days you can but you cant

  13. ★★★★diagnosis without treatment: redirects to wikipedia instead of instructions

    Weak results for diagnosis. 98% of diagnosis results take you to a paid sponsor site that has next to no info or a Wiki page that also has next to no info on what to do.

  14. ★★★★diagnosis without treatment: redirects to wikipedia instead of instructions

    Unclear information. The diagnosis is telling me it’s an antibiotic issue but not telling me what to do. It’s giving me the same reason for several different plants

  15. ★★★★other

    Not unlimited. It says unlimited plant identification, but it wouldn’t let us identify more than 5 plants…

  16. ★★★★subscription trap: impossible to cancel, keeps charging

    Don’t get this. The app works but once you get it, it’s like a weed you can’t kill. You can’t cancel it and they keep charging your card.

  17. ★★★★subscription trap: impossible to cancel, keeps charging

    Can’t cancel subscription. I have been trying to cancel my subscription, but have been unable to do so. I have sent several emails with no help received. Don’t subscribe to this. You cannot cancel the subscription!

  18. ★★★★aggressive paywall: can not use app without paid subscription

    Useless. This app just sends you to google pages which are not that helpful. Don’t waste your money. If you’re going to pay the same price, which you are, choose a better app.

  19. ★★★★inaccurate identification: wrong plant names given

    Failed to identify. I photographed a Mugho Pine in my garden as a test for the app, and it failed.

  20. ★★★★inaccurate identification: wrong plant names given

    Not accurate. So far I’ve taken a few pics of obvious plants and the app can’t identify them. Also, the plant is not doing well and it’s giving me every remedy under the sun.. I could do that on my own

  21. ★★★★aggressive paywall: can not use app without paid subscription

    Misleading. Advertised as one week, but continued to charge my account for several weeks before I noticed.

  22. ★★★★other

    Don’t recommend. Upset I downloaded PAID with no way to get money back. Sad site.

  23. ★★★★subscription trap: impossible to cancel, keeps charging

    Cancel my app please. Didnt gave me the information I was looking for

  24. ★★★★other

    Do not buy. Do not buy this app. It charged my account on endless occasions without my consent before I figured out what was going on.

  25. ★★★★inaccurate identification: wrong plant names given

    Unable to identify. Was great last year but now I Can’t identify. Will fix review when I can!

  26. ★★★★diagnosis without treatment: redirects to wikipedia instead of instructions

    Was good, don’t bother. New to plants & loved (past tense) the plant diagnosis option. After taking 3 photos the app gave diagnosis of possible issues and a quick concise suggestion to treat the issue. Now the treatment button is a link to a Wiki page or some other plant page to read a full article and try to find the needed info which may not even be there. Some pages make you watch an ad of 1min or so to get to the content you may not even need. It was good, now it’s a huge waste of time. I can google issues myself and get the same results.

  27. ★★★★diagnosis without treatment: redirects to wikipedia instead of instructions

    Treatment and diagnosis not clear. Every time I get a diagnosis it’s water related - so is it too much or too little ? Wish treatment would be more clear

  28. ★★★★other

    Trapped even when removed!. I believe you are trapped in this app even when you have deleted it!

  29. ★★★★diagnosis without treatment: redirects to wikipedia instead of instructions

    Disappointed. They don’t actually give you a treatment. Not a good app

  30. ★★★★aggressive paywall: can not use app without paid subscription

    Not working. Not working - even with subscription asking for subscription option
