  • High Regards

    I was looking for a truly free app. I installed several, but they all wanted my credit card for their “free” trial.
    PlantNet is truly free. Thank you.
    However, PlantNet offers several really attractive options to me, the % rankings and the ability to confirm others’ submissions in particular, hence training the machine learning.
    But beyond what I personally like, it’s convenient, intuitive, and good for identifying plants- which is why I got it in the first place. No problems with stability, even though I’m running on an older operating system.

  • Best App Ever!!!

    Highly accurate information and interactive as well. Positively identified plant life can be submitted to help others identify as well- to a degree anyway.
    This is the only app I went out of the way to see if there was a premium for, not because the app is bad but contrary, I wanted to see if it had even COOLER functions. I don’t think there is a premium. Which means all this is free and accessible for all. (As far as I can tell)

    So before you mistake an edible herb for a poisonous ☠️ herb, check this out.

  • Refreshing

    It is awesome to find an app free (as of today) of marketing and other nuisances with monetizing modern practices that -most of is I suppose- I so personally dislike. OK, leaving that statement behind. This site (both in the app and the web) offers a no brainer method to learn about plants (in all their splendor here, there, and everywhere) and share your local biodiversity with others which -it is earlier for me to assure but I trust is the goal- as sharing their photos and expertise help me to become more comfortable with learning about my local plant biology. I also need to thank modern smart phone cameras for allowing a user friendly way into making the transition from picture to app fluent without much steps (obviously this is not a feature of the app but of the smart phone) between snapping the picture and uploading it to my account. Keep it commercial free.

  • True blue on your greens

    It truly is free and doesn’t make you do some lame subscription. I love the community based botany—learning is the goal for me and it is just such a neat shared database. In-app purchases are available too, but I love that it doesn’t force you to sign up for anything if you just want to learn what’s growing around you.

  • Easy to use

    I’ve downloaded several identification apps, but for me this is the most user friendly. I can now check on the woodland flowers and plants very easily and record their names in my photos info. It seems quite accurate and rates % accuracy. It only takes a few seconds.
  • What the www is all about

    Incredible tool for plant ID. Not only does it tell you what the plant is, but allows you to drill down to learn detail. Once identified there is a row of icons that allow you to hyperlink into say the Wikipedia entry for it. Even better, the icon immediately to the left of the Wiki link is an ‘I’ link which allows deeper ‘drilling’ to include .edu articles on the species and thus articles on medicinal uses; herbal remedies; poison warnings; even recipes. This is what the web is really for y’all!

  • Awesome compared to the others out there

    Just as good as the better apps I've tried but no ads and no annoying reminders to upgrade. The other one I used for a while would ask you to upgrade all the time. As many as twice just in the process to identify one plant. This app is nearly identical in features. Very helpful in native woodland plant identification which I expected an app to have a harder time with.

  • Works great

    I love this app because it identifies so many plants quickly and correctly. You can also get more information about the plants rather than just their names. This is the one to have if you’re trying to find the name of a plant
  • Thumbs up for PlantNet

    Really enjoying being able to identify plants in my garden or ones I admire when out and about. It’s good to see the variety of similar plants.
  • Most accurate of those I’ve tried

    I was getting tired of the app that I was previously using to identify plants - that app started identifying everything as a dicot. I download it half a dozen plant identification apps. Some of them wanted me to sign up for a trial before they would let me try them out; I’m not partial to that. Others would freely let me try them out, and failed miserably on the various plants in my yard.

    This app correctly identified just about everything, and it didn’t asked me to sign up for anything in advance. The only thing I think that it did not get was a very tiny sprout it was barely above the dirt line. Even then, it gave a plausible guess.

    Another thing I like is that it lists possible plans in order with the percentage certainty that it estimates. I much appreciate that rather than just some wild random guess. Finally it has a pallet where you can tell it to identify either the plant or the bark or the fruit or the flower that happens to show in the photo being able to identify a plant for instance by its bark I think it’s great. I’ve only been using this app for an hour so there might be some nasty‘s in store but so far it’s a no-brainer I’m using this from now on.
