Doesn’t support iPad landscape

Bought this app based on reviews on an independent site, but after paying for it, I find out it works on ipad but only in portrait mode. How lame is that?

At this time, the app works in landscape mode on iPads and iPhones using iOS 16+. We have plans to add portrait mode as well, so users can do whatever they prefer.

I just got ripped off

I can’t design anything. I am stuck on either a ‘take a photo’ or a message that their is insufficient data about my location. No warning that there is sufficient information before purchasing (necessary so you can start a project). I just want to design a landscape for my property. Support is down and I can’t reach the developer.

Our latest update has many improvements, including a more helpful and intuitive interface that makes it easy to get started designing right away. We hope you'll give it another try!

Doesn’t work, don’t pay money

Trying to create my property in 3D and it never renders. Paid for the app and wasted my money. Wish it worked.

HORRIBLE!!!

Everything looked great when I was searching for a landscape app. However, once downloaded, the app asks you for your address (to provide you with an active overview of your property) AND to let you know which plants will work for the hardness in the area.

I’m in San Diego, California and the app told me that my address isn’t supported. Okay, so I’ll create a backyard scene from scratch. NOPE!

The app returns you to the hardness address screen (or to the “notify us” screen, which also doesn’t work.

Is there something I’m missing? Can I use this app without my address being in your database???

Thanks for this feedback. We've revised the whole user experience, so now you no longer need to enter an address (you may provide a zip code if you want to design a garden somewhere other than your location). That said, our plant library is still limited to zones 5-9, but we'll be adding more plants, collections, and regions, so please check back.

Don’t think twice and download!

Never thought something like this could be done, and it’s so easy to use! The UI is very friendly and it’s quick to figure out the app!

This is so cool

I really enjoyed using this app for trying out different designs in my backyard. I loved that I can experiment with different plants and trees, and see how they would look in my environment. It gave me the flexibility to move things around and visualize what would happen had I planted The flowers, trees, and grass. This is a great app to use if you want to design your own backyard and not spent tons of money.
