    Four attempts were made with your Free Plant Identifier and no results.. Four attempts were made with your Free Plant Identifier and no results.

  2. ★★★★misidentification errors

    Doesn’t work. Keeps saying something went wrong try again later.

  3. ★★★★bait-and-switch subscription

    “Free”. “Free” then you only get a couple IDs

  4. ★★★★misidentification errors

    Identified same plant as two different plants. Very disappointed. I used it with picture 1 and got. a result for a plant that is not native to my area. Used it with picture 2 and it identified it as another plant.

  5. ★★★★intrusive ads blocking usage

    Waste of time. Endless ads leading to the bare minimum information, anything important costs money to find out. Apps like this are such rage-bait. Booo

  6. ★★★★misidentification errors

    No good. Started off with using it to ID plants I know for sure what they are. Got all 3 wrong. They are all common garden vegetables. Would have kept going and gave it more chances but I’ve used all my free attempts for the day. Would leave 0 stars if possible.

    Reasons you shouldn’t get this app. Whenever I was trying to diagnose my plant. It wasn’t letting me saying I had to pay just to see that diagnostics and it was taking a long time to load so it never showed me so that’s why I think you shouldn’t get this app.

  8. ★★★★misidentification errors

    Never knows what the plant is!. You get what you pay for. Glad this is free because I’ve taken 3 pictures of one volunteer tree and gotten 3 different answers.

  9. ★★★★misidentification errors

    This thing doesn’t work. I have trained the same plant multiple times it doesn’t get it right

  10. ★★★★other

    Can’t get it to work. Took photos but won’t identify only search sick plants

  11. ★★★★bait-and-switch subscription

    not free. takes forever to operate.

  12. ★★★★bait-and-switch subscription

    Free?. Not Free! Full access requires a paid subscription! This app requires two other apps. The “Plant Doctor” app demands full access to your camera, even though you have a photo of the plant to diagnose. I can see no reason for it to need full access to the camera, unless it is spyware. I name it: Spyware… deleted and banned.

    Trying to figure it out. So far, it’s only let me take one picture

    Mystery seedlings. I transferred some seedlings to my raised bed, but wasn’t sure which ones survived. Thanks for your help in confirming what I already thought.

  15. ★★★★misidentification errors

    Not the Best. I deleted my subscription the day I bought it. The app misidentified 7 if the first 10 plants.

  16. ★★★★bait-and-switch subscription

    Free til you want to use it. Named Free. Use it and it wants you to pay.

  17. ★★★★other

    Disappointed. Tried to ID my first plant and it told me OOPS!

  18. ★★★★intrusive ads blocking usage

    Add pop ups every click!. An add pops up every click! Takes about 10 seconds to load before you can close it. This app is Garbage.

  19. ★★★★bait-and-switch subscription

    Scam. App said “Free Plant Identifier” but they’ll charge you for using it. What a scam?!

  20. ★★★★misidentification errors

    No help. Wrong identification of plants. Got one out of 5 and was not exact. Others not even close.

  21. ★★★★intrusive ads blocking usage

    Insufferable. This was insufferable. Ad every 2 seconds!! Ad every time I uploaded a picture!!

  22. ★★★★misidentification errors

    Wrong identifications. Most things I identify I go look in the store and this app is 100% wrong. I want my money back.

  23. ★★★★misidentification errors

    It is a scam. It says no in app purchases but there is in app purchases and you have to pay just to get to get the way to save your plant or find what is wrong with your plant.

  24. ★★★★misidentification errors

    App is garbage. Couldn’t ID any of my plants accurately, Not one

  25. ★★★★bait-and-switch subscription

    Tricky Trash, Buyer Beware. It can not identify my plant, didn’t give a trial period now I’m locked into a year and I didn’t even use the app for 2 hours. This is thievery I do NOT RECOMMEND. PICK ANOTHER APP

  26. ★★★★other

    Can't login w paid subscription. Paid for the premium and ever since they accepted my money I can't login to use it

  27. ★★★★bait-and-switch subscription

    Free. This app is supposed to be free and they want you to subscribe so it is false advertising

  28. ★★★★misidentification errors

  29. ★★★★other
