  • Doesn’t work

    Took pictures of affected leaf and app kept showing something completely different. Waste of money.
  • Does not work

    I am having an issue with my red Pentas. A mineral is missing in my soil. So I took a photo of my penta leaf and the app indicated the problem is peach leaf curl with a 15% probability. I took numerous photos and it kept referencing the peach tree. I also took a photo of a sunflower that has a fungal issue, but the app recognizes it as a pest rather than fungus. However, the app did successfully identify damage from a snail. But I’m still disappointed because I bought the app for my pentas. Snail/slug damage is easy to identify so that wasn’t exciting.

    This app would be so awesome to if it could recognize potassium, nitrogen, and magnesium deficiencies. It would be even better if it said, “This is a magnesium deficiency. Add epsom salt....” or something like that.

    Thank you for your detailed review. We are currently working on the next update. This will include a dictionary of diseases and pest and how to prevent / treat them. We are also adding a plant specific section and feeding our model with more pictures to increase the accuracy. Regarding the deficiencies due to e.g. magnesium we need to check if this possible, but will include it in the dictionary.

    I am sorry to read that you had a bad user experience. The model is based on photos of plant diseases and our internal test showed an accuracy of above 80%. In order to further increase the accuracy we are adding even more photos to the model. The accuracy can be negatively influenced by lightning conditioning or focus of the picture. Please try to take a photo so that it is sharp and the whole leaf is visible.
