User reviews

Pop up ads

The pop up ads are very frequent and very annoying.

False ad

Advertising this app as FREE TO USE… that’s false!

Won’t go past the leaf icon

I’ve tried deleting and downloading again. It just keeps shutting down

This App

It did nothing that it said… it did not diagnose any of my plants or give me a remedy it only said it was sick. What a waste of time and space on my phone

Waste of Money

This app doesn’t always correctly identify plants, about 30% of the time. I find the diagnoses are always the same (even on perfectly healthy plants) and specific remedies are not provided.
