A nice app but beware.

A nice app which is quite good at plant recognition and some disease etc. but gets more accurate the more photos you take. likewise identification of disease.

The app can be free but as with all, you get more if you pay.
On first and subsequent use the obvious route is to subscribe to the paid versions, there is no “free” button but by pressing cancel and looking at the screen carefully the free option is there.

The paid option is a bit expensive for the amount it is likely to be used and could easily run to £100’s of pounds for what is an electronic book.

For the amount it is really likely to be used the paid version makes it expensive. If it was a lesser sum i would be more likely to subscribe and leave it running.

This is the best app ever! I got it today and I am so already using it for so many things. This is the absolute perfect thing that I think we all need. It’s been so helpful and it’s worked so well. I recommend you all getting it.

Best ever

I own two houses side-by-side and garden the entire way around both of them. There were so many plants that I forgot what they were and this app has helped me immeasurably. There were many of them that I was totally confused about. In thinking that I was helping them, I was actually hurting/killing them. I wish I would have had this app years ago before I wasted so much money and time buying plants and having them die in a month or two. Right now I am working on my two beautiful bamboo plants that had outgrown their pots. I had no idea that I could plant them in soil, because they had not been when I bought them. If I didn’t have this app, I would have just put the ball in a pot and put some stones on the top and thought that everything would be fine. Now that I know the right way to do it, I feel like, they could last for many more years.

Cancel Fake Plant Parent App

My reasons for cancel review is because this app diagnosed my Granite tile floor as a healthy INCHPLANT…WTHECK. I had opened this app accidentally in one of the rooms in my home that doesn't have any house plants in the room. After my first false-positive report(BTW my Granite flooring is healthy however it is NOT an INCHPLANT!! Now I want to check a few other items in my home to see if I get any other false-positive reports. My walls, countertop, hall closet are also diagnosed with good health…hummm. My house plants are healthy as well, plant parent didn't recognize my Dracaena Plant as being a house plant but Ive had this plant for a while now and it is healthy. Not because plant parent helped me but despite the fact that plant parent helped NOT A SINGLE PLANT I have!

Don't waste your hard earned $$ on an app that doesn't know WTHECK it's diagnosing.…………just saying!

Tricked

I did not see where this was a subscription based app. So I downloaded it and now I don’t know how to undownload it. I can’t find the iTunes settings to ensure that I do not get charged for this in seven days. And I don’t have time to find it because I am right in the middle of a move. Speaking of moves that was a good one on your part.

A (mostly) good app

I’ve been using this app for awhile now and it was at first very helpful and useful but when one of my house plants was infected, it asked me to mix liquid soap and bicarb soda in water then carefully spray the leaves. I did exactly what it requested and a day later my plant has gone from not very good to almost completely dead!
Apart from this though, it’s very well put together app.

We regret that your plant is not in good condition, and we apologize for not providing detailed instructions. I guess the issue might be that the liquid soap you used contained some extra antibacterial or irritating substances, causing harm to the plant. We recommend that when you use it in the future, choose a liquid soap with natural or single ingredients, adding only 1 milliliter per liter. The addition of baking soda should be kept within 1 teaspoon. We will update our instructions to avoid such situations. If you have any questions or suggestions, please feel free to contact shania@gloritysolutions.com. Thank you for your support and feedback!

Love it!

I love, love, love this app. I have always admired the beauty of flowers. My husband started buying me expensive plants and I just kept killing them. Each time they died he’d just buy more. I seriously do not have a green thumb. I even killed the steel plants and cactus. So I just got frustrated and told him not to buy anymore. Then he started planting flowers outside and he didn’t kill them. At least not all of them. I was talking to a relative and she told me about your app and I started using it to help him outside. Now he has started buying me beautiful indoor plants and I haven’t had to throw any away yet. I have saved two so far. Your app is a wealth of information and I am so grateful for it and everyone that contributes to it. Thanks to plant parent I have found my first hobby and I look forward to the journey.
Much appreciated

Fantastic

I downloaded it with a few other and this is miles ahead as the fav, plant scanning and keeping track of what is where with pictures and reminders is just what I needed.
Only lost a star as the light meter is a bit iffy and I’ve cooked a few plants in spots where sunlight was a bit much.
Still use it daily and love it!

Absolutely Wonderful Resource

I am delighted with this app. It has finally helped me to identify plants that I have had for more than a decade but never knew what they were called and thus never knew what they needed for optimal care. Furthermore, I very much appreciate the categorizing of care and ability of the app to keep my personal indoor and outdoor garden organized and updated re: watering and fertilizing. The health scan is a brilliant concept and appears to be correct ~ 85% of the time. I believe that much of the 15% off component is also largely contributed to the user’s photo ability, revealing the full plant and nothing but the plant, no background plant’s included in scan photo, close enough, clear enough, etc…, etc…The health care suggestions are spot on. And all the information is quite helpful. Even if you already know it, the material keeps you more vigilant and gives the user confidence. Ultimately, other than being such a hardworking tool with lots of capability, the app is totally fun to use. Most highly recommend!!
