Constant error. Won’t recognize me so whatever this app has promise

Terrible for identifying plants. I wanted to like & use this app but it failed immediately in identifying plants in my garden. For example identifying the my perennial flowering catmint plant as alfalfa and then as chaste tree. 🤦🏼♀️

Works, don’t need another app trying to take my $$. I can avoid all the extra cost and premiums, but it’s a plant id & care app… I didn’t mean to download an online plant shop that requires a monthly subscription with extra advertisements.

Not happy. I was told wk free then it charged my account. I surely believe this is to expensive

Poor Plant ID. Missed the proper ID of both my orchids and hoya

Greg. Too expensive rather Google it.

Bot driven. This app doesn’t function as a quick reference quite to plant identification AND care . It directs you to a forum of others with knowledge on a plethora of different types of plants. That in itself is ok but not as useful when time is limited.

AI 😞. I was super excited to use this app but then realized it’s AI. Super disappointed.

Frustrated. I have had this app for a couple years. Then yesterday it asked me to sign in. When I did, it created a new account. I keep trying to sign in but it goes no where unless I create a new account.

Doesn’t help. Need to pay for a membership

Used to be good, not anymore. This app used to be free, with good identification qualities and an ability for easy addition to a watering schedule. Not anymore. This is now just a paid app where they slap AI in it to make someone money. Don’t use it!
- ★★★★★crashes, freezes and errors
Crashes. Continued to crash as I was loading photos. Misidentified several plants. Clunky.

Why it is 2 stars. It could not identify my plant and gave me random answers and then I could not change what is was AND there is just bots to " be friends with" and in all is just not a great app to download so save the time and DONT get it.The only thing that was good was that I could set reminders to water my plant at least I thought but turns out that we need to pay like 20$ a month for "V.I.P" stuff and the real reason it is a 2 and not a 1 is because there is like one good thing.

Peach sorbet. Just downloaded the app and was looking for a diagnosis for my newly planted peach survey blueberry plant has brown spots on the leaves and I need to know what action I need to take
- ★★★★★recognition misses on the most common plants
Not user friendly - and I’m a young millennial. I had high hopes for this app as it came highly recommended. The thing is, I find it so difficult to maneuver as the platform is not user friendly. Perhaps I need more straight forward information and to click on items I need right away rather than click click click to get to where I need as I have to on Greg. I’m tech savvy as a young millennial and that’s saying something about this app. I don’t want to dig around, for things I need like a watering schedule or identify plant and care instructions. I’ll pass on this app.

I thought this App was free. I just wanted to know what was wrong with my plant, but I guess I need to pay for that information
- ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific
App erased everything!!. I went to open my app and see what plants need watering and it was completely empty!
- ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions
Garbage. Scan all your plants, then find out that reminders are a paid feature. Trash app. Misleading.

Good app but they lied about everything.. When I got this app I was under the impression that it was a free app. However as soon as I got into it and started to use it I realized that I had to pay for everything that was advertised to me as free.Just under the title it says Identity,Diagnose & Reminders and the app is advertised as free but you have to pay for diagnose and reminders .The app worked just fine for identifying plants but if you want anything else this is not the app to get at all.

Login. I don’t necessarily want to login using apple or SMS but it makes me choose those options. I would love it if you could just login with email instead.

Ai and plant ID never foolproof. I have 100’s if not thousands of succulents and when I started inputting them it got the majority of them wrong. Just like most AI identifiers it cannot recognize the vast plethora of varieties and hybrids that are present in the succulent theater. Would not recommend for accurate ID. I cannot attest to the other features but I suspect the watering calculator to be faulty as well. I recommend not purchasing until you are aware of usefulness.

Everything costs money there is not a free option to use the app. I got my plant and it had a QR code to this app saying free plant care but there is a pay wall for everything
- ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions
100% subscription. They advertise as an app to remind you to water your plants but does not advertise that even sending an reminder ONCE is money???
- ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions
Started fine now they just want money. Literally was a perfectly okay app, then they starting taking away features and putting them behind a paywall. The community table is the hardest thing to navigate, there is NO WAY to SEARCH for ANYTHING!!!! What app doesn’t include a search bar??? This one!!! I’ve been using the app pretty consistently to keep track of watering but after this free trial ends IM GONE NOT COMING BACK DONT USE IT THEY DONT WANT YOU JUST YOUR MONEY!!!!!!

Garbage. I’m glad I canceled while I had a free subscription. It ID’d 9 out of 10 plants incorrectly. It was so far off the mark. the only plant it got correct , it got the second time.
