Read the entire app before buying

.99 gets you 3 identifications. After that you pay for each identification.

IF I HAD KNOWN

Would never have purchased IF I HAD KNOWN...... You have to access my Google Account to use, responses take up to 24 hours AND each inquiry is at an additional cost

Couldn’t identify

A shrub that is common in my region
Disappointing

:(

I needed this for identifying flowers while hiking, I find out now I have to wait up to 24 hours and I also have to pay to see the answer, on top of already paying for the app. Scams to make money.. tisk tisk

Sorry, but a bit bunk

I posted a photo of a plant, gave its location and a bit of background on what it was labeled as but how U believed it was mislabeled. The app ultimately told me it couldn't identify the plant; meanwhile within that 24-hour period I managed to identify it myself. Sorry, but not worth the download.

Have to use Google

I hate that I can’t use this app without logging into my Google account. I don’t like doing that and there’s no way around it. They should’ve put that in the description because I would’ve never purchased it.

Just realized identification is done by a human being.

AI based may be as good now.

Must Authenticate With Google

I refuse to use any app that requires authentication via Google or some other 3rd party. There seems to be no other way to use this app. I want my 99 cents back.

Worth every penny and every minute waiting

My husband and I are self taught plant lovers. We generally know our own local flora. But when we travel we observe magnificent new species. Sometimes we can sleuth and accomplish a confident identification. Sometimes we need help. We love having the expert assistance of the botanists who work with flower checker. With our additional research 100% of the identifications received have been correct. Worth every penny and every minute waiting!!

Could not identify on first use:(

I sent the pictures as requested, answer, “unable to identify” !!! What? Isn’t this what you do??????

Out of your mind !

Don’t download this! You pay for every identification?!

$1 of all things

I could just buy a book and look it up myself and save a ton of money.

Used to be so helpful! What happened ?

So I’ve been using this app for at least two years now. Lately, they have not been able to identify all but one of my inquiries. I always include clear photos & my location.

I used to really love this app. I certainly don’t mind 99 cents for an ID in less than 24 hours. When an inquiry comes back as “unresolved” no credits are used. This means if it’s not resolved, you don’t spend a credit (99cents). That’s good, however, I really am disappointed, as it’s super obvious it’s gone down hill.

Impossible to cancel. Ask for support section you cannot send

Filing complaint with Apple App Store. Huge rip off
Send button on this page won’t send

Great app have suggestion to make it better

Would the botanist be able to give advice for unhealthy plants? For example plants that lack certain nutrients, over watered etc. I think this app would be much more popular if it could.

What a waste!

It’s only .99, but I would ha r been better off to throw the money in a fountain😩

Wasted $.99

It was a useless app.
Not at all what I thought I bought.
I want my $.99 back.

Not Good

They couldn’t even identify a simple plant. Nickname: “Hen and Chick”

Shame on you!

I have tried several free apps and seen this one for $0.99 because it’s in my budget, not only do you want more money but you want total access to my Google account....
For what purpose do you truly need to have total access my Google account? If I don’t let you use it then I don’t get to use you even though I paid for you I don’t think so give me my money back and we will call it good

It’s progress!

I submitted a plant for review and was given the identification of the specimen, within less than a Twenty-four hour period. The review was apparently conducted by three live Botanist, at which I find to be humbling and at the same time hope to be the real deal. The team of Botanist gave me what seemed to be an honest 90% accuracy rating upon diagnosis of the species in question.
I will continue to support this app, as long as certified real live botanist are getting the compensation they need and deserve. If that means they’re getting paid for their time, or just the experience of practicing Botany in a cool new way. This app has great promise!

Thank you for your time!
Sincerely, The User
