### 1/5 — Does not work anymore

*2023-07-06*

App just downloads but never completes download.

### 1/5 — It won’t even download the plant guide.

*2023-02-25*

It’s sitting there for 30 minutes downloading. I have a 5g and everything else works fine. Have to delete it again.

### 1/5 — Has had the same problem for years

*2020-06-02*

Touch a picture to get more info and the app shuts down. Rather a serious defect. It doesn’t speak well for NC state University.

### 1/5 — Good pictures bad system

*2018-07-06*

Like the plant pictures, but identification is terrible. App keeps kicking us out when trying to review information

### 1/5 — Crashes when I tap on a pic for more info.

Test before you offer guys.

### 1/5 — Doesn't work

*2017-08-04*

The idea is exactly what I wanted, but the app crashes every time you click a picture. Kind of useless.

*2017-01-09*

Every time I tap on a picture for more information the app closes.

### 2/5 — If it would work correctly

*2019-04-01*

Goods pics and categories but when touching picture to get more info the app closes.

### 2/5 — Fair

*2016-06-01*

Needs to be fixed so it doesn't close when trying to get information on weeds

### 2/5 — Closes unexpectedly

*2016-03-15*

Nice idea, but app closes when you tap a photo. Been broke for quite sometime.

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2015-08-31*

My profession requires I be able to identify aquatic vegetation. This is perfect for use in the field while I'm still learning. My only suggestion would be to add higher quality, zoomable photos.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2015-02-24*

Thanks for the help in identifying weeds and algae!

### 5/5 — NCSU Aquatic Weeds

*2014-09-02*

Great app. Now I can identify which plants are out in the lake. Thanks for all you do for lake management!

### 5/5 — ID rating

*2014-06-06*

Fantastic ID app for aquatic weeds. From small pond to large lake systems, this App does a great job of helping you to identify what aquatic plants are in your water body.

### 5/5 — NCSU Water Plants and Weeds App

*2014-05-14*

Great job! Great pictures! GREAT APP! GO PACK!

### 2/5 — Got some Bugs

*2016-03-10*

Every time I click more info it kicks me out of the app. I can only see one picture and then it shuts down the app. Wish it worked better

### 2/5 — Has bugs

*2016-01-03*

Good content but when I click on a pic like under the pondweed section it closes the whole app. Super annoying.
