1. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

   App is not great.. Dashboard made me subscribe again after starting my trial two times and ran me around in circles for 10 minutes. When I got my info, it wasn’t anything Google hadn’t already told me.

2. ★★★★★privacy and excessive permissions

   Unreliable privacy settings. I rather have dead plants than to use this sus app. I deleted this app a few minutes after downloading and opening for the first time. First prompt was “allow location” which I promptly selected “Never.” Then I go to the “Account” tab on the app and clicked on “Location” where I assume I can enter in mg zip code. Lo and behold the app recognized my location already. Thought I was crazy so I went into the iPhone’s privacy settings and saw that Location services set as “Never” yet so curious how the app knew my city and zip code without user input???

3. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

   Review. This is a great app! It tells me everything I need to know about gardening!!!

4. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

   Not completely free as stated.. The website claims this is a free app. They don’t charge because they have Amazon links. However if you want to do more than 1 garden bed you have to pay $46.99 a year.

5. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

   Have to pay to make a bed layout. I couldn’t even finish mapping out a bed without having to pay.

6. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

   Incorrectly identified plants. AI Bot incorrectly identified a lemon grass plant. Does not identify exact species.

7. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

   Scam. Another scammy app that wants you to pay for a yearly fee and gives you adds and doesn’t identify anything

8. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

   Not free. Says it’s free but it’s not

9. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

   Doesn’t work for REAL beds. This app may be great if you are planting a few tomatoes on the back patio but is no good if you are trying to grow a decent sized garden because it won’t allow a “garden bed” bigger than 8’x16’.

10. ★★★★★data, history or progress disappears

    Used to be a good APP. After months of tweaking the APP they finally wiped out my most recent garden and all data and photos I had collected. Going back to a notebook. Absolutely destroyed a once useful APP!

11. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Free. I thought this was free , I downloaded to help me but it’s asking for subscription . Why? If it’s free it shouldn’t want subscription. Shouldn’t lie to people . As for app it look like be something that help me understand how get my seen to grow better but not sure I can keep it. I’m on fix income

12. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Crashes. I can’t get this app to work. Everyone I try to add a plant it crashes.

13. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Advertised as free. I downloaded this because the link from your webpage said it is free. And there is no mention of a cost until after it is downloaded. I won’t use dishonest companies. Sounds like a great app but you need to disclose that there is a price. Take the word free off your webpage. I’ll be erasing the app.

14. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Loved this app until it kept crashing. Please fix keeps crashing. I’ve updated tried uninstall and reinstall. This was such a good garden app

15. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Only 10 entries allowed.. This would be a great app, but it only allows 10 plants to be entered unless a fee is paid.

16. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Seems amazing BUT It keeps glitching!. This app seems amazing and has everything I’m looking for. Unfortunately it glitches every 2 seconds and is unusable. From reading reviews it seems others are having the same problem. Hopefully you can fix!

17. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Glitches. Way to many glitches, take for ever to load. I can’t access my garden list.

18. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Looks so good but is doesn’t work. As a app dev I wanted to reach out. I am unable to do anything on this app. The app launches, gets to the Home Screen then just constantly refreshes. I am not doing anything and the screen goes white and back to the home screen. The app seems to me to be everything I need it to be. But I just can’t do anything so 1 star for now

19. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    I can’t even use the app. Worst app ever! I cannot even use it. It literally turns to a white screen and refreshes every two seconds. Horrible. Everyone has such great things to say about it.

20. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Robbery at it's finest. $50/year and no lifetime option? Yeah, no thanks. People who support this sketchy business model are the ones perpetuating this nonsense money grab. "Inflation" on an intangible product is the biggest scam of the century. The reason most people started gardening in the first place is due to the unreasonably high grocery prices nowadays. Paying this much for an app subscription would likely reverse any savings you might have enjoyed by starting your own garden. Wise up folks. You must be the change you want to see.

21. ★★★★★crashes, freezes and errors

    Search feature does not work.. Search feature is broken.

22. ★★★★★trial charges and refunds

    May be good but too expensive. The 3 plant preview does not allow for one to get a feel for the app’s functionality. As soon as I added 3 plants it pushed a 7 day free trial, then $50/yr. I wouldn’t mind paying for an app outright but (1) the 3 plant preview shows me very little about garden planning, (2) free trials are a hassle since I would have to cancel to avoid being charged, (3) $50/yr is ridiculous, period. This app would probably keep more users at a lower price point.

23. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Glitches. Screen keeps going black and app resets

24. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Keeps crashing. First time trying to use it and it keeps crashing, can’t even get through settings.

25. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Keeps restarting. Can’t use it, the screen keeps flashing and returning to the home screen

26. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Didn’t work. Whenever I tried to select anything my screen continuously went black and white.

27. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Almost impossible to use. I like the idea but this thing flashes white and completely resets every time I click on anything. It’s totally unusable.

28. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    App totally nonfunctional. No content loads on any of the tabs, and I am prompted to subscribe any time I tap on something. Unfortunately, the app says “Subscriptions can’t be set on on this device.” I’m running the latest version of iOS on an iPhone 12. I know my device isn’t bleeding edge, but it’s still supported by Apple. What gives?

29. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Clunky interface. They want everything on the first screen and then fill it up with banners requesting you subscribe. It’s hard to get a feel for an app when you can’t actually use it before paying.

30. ★★★★★crashes, freezes and errors

    Not working. For me this app only opens to a blank white page.
