### 3/5 — Needs a “refresh” button

*2025-07-01*

Often times when I check this app for rainfall totals it will only display what the totals were at the time you first opened the app, whether that was 5 minutes ago or 5 days ago, and the only way to reset it is to shut your phone off each time which is a pain. The app really needs a way to refresh itself or let the user manually update the rainfall totals.

### 2/5 — Was affordable

*2023-11-22, version 7.0.0*

I used to mainly use farm logs to track rainfall.  The older app was affordable for rainfall tracking in our fields.  Now it costs hundreds of dollars to have the same feature.  Not worth, it the new company has become greedy with money.  Bring back the old pricing and I will change my review.

### 2/5 — Used to be great

*2023-09-20*

I don’t even remember what the original version was called but I had it for the last 5 years, it was always reliable, now since it’s been changed to bushel barn there has been numerous changes and not for the better, the latest change is charging for app use, I don’t see an option to run it with ads or I would.

**Developer response:** We appreciate your feedback. FarmLogs joined Bushel in 2021 and recently updated the app name to Bushel Farm in 2023. Bushel is committed to a positive user experience and we know that FarmLogs was highly regarded for its rainfall accuracy, so we have not made any adjustments to rainfall reporting. We would be happy to dig into any issues you have experienced if you'd like to reach out to us by emailing support@bushelfarm.com.

### 1/5 — Was a great app until paywall

*2023-08-29, version 4.0.0*

I’ve used this App since it was Farmlogs. It was great to monitor food plots for hunting purposes, in addition to the rainfall feature. And it was free with a subscription option. Bushel bought Farmlogs out at some point, and now sometime after that, Bushel only offers subscriptions. I will now be uninstalling after using the app for a number of years.

### 1/5 — What a joke

*2023-08-29*

Nice App that has been free for YEARS! Gets taken over by a new company and is now $20 per month! Get lost!!

### 1/5 — Too Expensive!

*2023-08-21, version 4.0.0*

I’ve had this app for several years.  Now, I’m seeing a banner stating the free app will start charging on Aug. 28, 2023. I don’t think so, I will be deleting the app. If I want to know how much rain has fallen I will install a rain gauge in my backyard.

### 2/5 — R

*2023-06-06, version 4.0.0*

Don’t send rainfall notices until mid day

### 3/5 — Additional fields

*2023-06-01, version 4.0.0*

How to load more than one field

### 1/5 — Slow updates

*2022-09-02, version 3.0.4*

8/31-Slow updates. Slow to open. 12 hours later still no update. I know we got more than 2”, but app is showing NOTHING! Absolutely inaccurate.  9/1-Won’t update and still not showing rainfall on farm and home.

### 1/5 — Too over priced for a small farmer

*2021-08-05, version 3.0.4*

App is to expensive for a small time farmer. All I want to know is rainfall amounts so I don’t have to drive out to the farm all the time. Not paying 19.99 a month just for that.

### 3/5 — Rainfall totals won’t refresh

*2021-05-31, version 3.0.4*

Once you check how much rain you’ve gotten on your fields the first time that’s how much it’s going to say you’ve had until the next time you shut your phone off. It won’t refresh.

### 1/5 — Bad Update

*2021-05-22, version 3.0.4*

Had an old version that worked wonderfully. Then the app forced an update and now the features that I cared to look at (rainfall and gdd charts) aren’t available anymore

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2025-09-05, version 7.3.6*

They won’t let a honest review through. Do Not Buy.

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2025-04-05, version 7.3.2*

I’ve had this app for probably 10 years it has changed names a couple times. Every time it changes names, it gets worse. I’m not signing into my bank app why do I need to email verify a code every time I want to check the rainfall.

### 1/5 — Prices Doubled in a Year

*2024-12-17, version 7.3.1*

Price has more than doubled in the past year. The “lite” plan starts at $199 now any anything cheaper isn’t very useful anymore.

### 1/5 — Used to be good

*2024-10-31, version 7.3.0*

An app that went from free to a ridiculous price overnight.  Looks like they “reset” their reviews trying to hide how disappointed people are with this app.

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2024-09-07, version 7.2.1*

I not paying for a app to farm 20 acres. These is a total waste and I find a better app

### 1/5 — Farm logs was better

*2024-09-06*

App went downhill ever since to switched to Bushel Farm

### 1/5 — Forcing customers to pay for service after changing names

*2023-10-12*

I’ve had farm logs for several years simply to monitor rainfall on food plots at our hunting property since I live 2.5 hours away from it.  No charges and it was user friendly.  Now all of a sudden there’s this change and I can’t access my previously selected fields or rainfall information without paying a fee for usage.  There was no information that I’m aware of sent to me indicating this change especially now a payment for use.  I don’t mind paying for services but being forced in this manner, NO THANKS.  I’ll choose another option since I wasn’t important enough to be informed of the changes until I simply couldn’t access my account.

**Developer response:** We understand change isn't always easy, but is sometimes necessary. Although we could have taken other paths to cover costs, like displaying third-party ads, we did not want to negatively impact our customers’ experience. Instead, we opted to provide the rainfall information at an economical price validated by thousands of Bushel Farm users. 

We did provide notice of this change several different ways, such as email and in app messages, but it's possible you missed those. If you'd like, we would be happy to look into exactly what happened. Please feel free to reach out to us by emailing support@bushelfarm.com.

### 1/5 — What is once great but fell to greed

*2023-10-12*

I’ve been using this app for years and years for free just to check rainfall at my house and business then they changed and now suddenly they want me to pay $79 a year just to see the rainfall amounts? Typical like so many other companies looking for a way to charge people for something that used to be free. Now I’ve lost my properties because I’m not paying for something I’ve been getting free for years. I found another app called Raindrop that’s just as accurate if not more accurate so thanks for nothing Bushel Farms.

**Developer response:** Hello, it's not possible to see in the mobile stores, but we do have Add-Ons available in our web app. We created an Add-On for rain after hearing from users that they don't always need all the features included in our Essentials plan. The Rain and Heat History is $10/month through the FarmLogs web app. Recent rainfall and YTD rainfall totals are still included in the free plan, FarmLogs Lite. You can read more about all the options here: farmlogs.com/pricing. It’s necessary to charge for our services so we can continue to provide and improve them, but we understand the new plans may not work for everyone.

### 1/5 — Greedy

*2023-09-25, version 4.0.0*

Was ok until they stared charging a stupid amount for so little!! 👎👎👎

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2023-09-12, version 4.0.0*

When it was Farmlogs loved the app! When they sold out to Bushel farms is all changed.  Rain amounts not even close to accurate. Now they are charging $75 a year to get inaccurate rain totals. Delete if app.

### 5/5 — nice

*2026-05-12*

Does what i need. Now i know what is in my bins easily

### 5/5 — economics are great

*2025-05-29*

$5M of fdic insurance is incredible, totally liquid, now i want a CC

### 5/5 — Skeptical at first, but now use it everyday

*2024-06-25*

I'm always a bit skeptical about trying new software for the farm, but Bushel Farm is definitely really helpful for our family farm.

Easy to check rain and satellite imagery, and love the JD connection.

### 5/5 — Works great

*2023-12-21, version 7.0.0*

Looks and works great, it appears a lot of progress has been made! Love being able to manage my farm operations from my phone

### 5/5 — Jam packed with usefulness

*2023-10-17, version 4.0.0*

Love field mapping and the rainfall content.  Helpful to determine where to work in the field, which saves a lot of time.

### 5/5 — Hands down best farm app

*2021-05-17, version 3.0.3*

This is by far one of the best apps I’ve ever encountered. You are able to log in so many of ur variables and inputs and really fine tune ur operation

### 5/5 — Great product...well worth the cost!!

*2021-01-22*

This is a VERY useful product.   Was on the fence at first and thought would just easier to track on paper or excel but the app on your phone is WAY easier then I thought and incredibly useful in the field!  No brainer on this one for the price

### 5/5 — Great App for any operation

*2021-01-12*

Been with FarmLogs for at least the last 4 years. Customer Service is very friendly and can answer any questions you have. Different packages to help any operation with data management. Always looking for new input to make the app and the software better for the grower. I don’t plan on leaving FarmLogs anytime soon.

### 5/5 — Farmlogs listens

*2020-03-11*

Appreciate the response from Farmlogs anytime I have a question or suggest improvements. They continuously improve the program to keep it user friendly and a valuable farming tool. More and more we’re required by law to document weather conditions for certain activities and Farmlogs does it automatically. I wish the cost was somewhat lower but we feel it’s such a valuable and easy to use tool that we just budget it into our cost of operations.

### 5/5 — App works as advertised!!

*2018-06-15*

I downloaded this App to effectively fertilize and spray my crop fields without a GPS unit. I was a little reluctant given some of the reviews but noticed every time some had a issue the App Developer addressed the issue. After using it in both applications, fertilizing and spraying, I can honestly say it worked to perfection with me. Will definitely continue to use!
