### 1/5 — Bad bad bad

*2025-10-05, version 1.2*

App says you don’t have to pay but you do probably. Gets wrong anyway Wouldn’t buy
I only rated 1star as as it would not let me rate 0…

### 1/5 — Only works with subscription.

*2024-08-10*

Free app, expensive subscription.

### 1/5 — Disappointing

*2024-02-11*

I was looking to see what apps are available to identify the caterpillars feasting on my sisters plants. I thought by looking at this app I’d be able to firstly see if it was country appropriate and then see if it was worth recommending for her to get. Unfortunately, more disappointingly, it instantly pushes you to purchase the app before being able to check it out. I now take it that any of apps by Barret Foster are the same a should be avoided. Best I head to the book store to see what is available, country specific, practical and worth purchasing.

### 1/5 — Need to pay to access

*2023-06-01, version 1.2*

Doesn’t seem to be any way of using this app unless you pay a monthly fee. Not even a trial to see if it actually works or is any good

### 1/5 — Not reliable

*2022-10-21, version 1.1*

Every caterpillar I ask to identify it says - elephant hawk moth caterpillar 100% , which it hasn’t been. 
Except the one that said cabbage white and it was not that at all.
