Good app but needs work

This is very good because you can enter a lot of info. But for it to be great there has to be a way to sort orchids by genre and seller. This way I can search Cattleya or any other genre or seller when I am buying and orchid and check to see if I already have it.
This would make it the best app out there!

Easy and practical

This is a very basic app that is very easy to use. This very helpful to keep track of which plants and species you have in your collection to not buy ones you already have!
It would be helpful if there was a search function. Plants are organized alphabetically once you make entries. So, to find a plant, you have to scroll down all your plants. This is my biggest issue. But in all I like its simplicity and functionality.

Touch pad problems

A simple app to keep track of your orchids but it is too difficult to enter data because the touch function works so poorly.

Nice app!

As most orchid collectors know it gets hard to remember what you have in your collection. This app helps me keep track! I’ve been using it for years now.

It has stopped working

I sent two help requests today. Was not finished documenting when it stopped allowing me to upload images for the orchid plants I have purchased locally. I’m in Canada and she’s all over my YouTube channel so I thought this was a safe bet.

Too basic to be useful

I really wanted to like this, as I love Orchid Dees videos. But this app was a waste of time and money, it is too basic to be useful if you have more than a few orchids. You can’t sort, categorize, or search your entries. You can’t zoom into your photos, or see them any larger than thumbnail size. You can’t reorder or annotate them. Some fields are hard to read if you have long entries. It would be nice if it had lists of common orchid genres. And… you can’t export your data or photos. If there are ways to do any of this, I couldn’t find it in the app. I am currently trying Orchid Album after demoing it with their trial app, and it is much more robust.

Stopped working

Loved this app until it stopped working and I’ve lost all my orchid info. Can’t find the developer to get help.

Will not open on my iPhone anymore

I love the app BUT, after recording so many of my orchid collection, it all of a sudden seized to open. I tried deleted and reloading the app, but it keeps asking me to open since it stays in the App Library in my iPhone. I tried everything but no luck yet. I hope this is a bug that can be fixed because I lo in e using the app which is super user friendly and it’s a great tool to have when you go Orchid festival shopping. 1 you can use it not to buy something thou already have. I’ve done that before. Lol! And 2 you can identify some of you orchids by asking the experts with simply showing them library of orchids. If they fix the bug I will for sure continue using it. ❤️

My app stopped working

I love this app but after 3 years of having it it won’t open or function anymore 😡

Good app!

This is a good app, I have been using it for a while now! It keeps all the info on my orchid collection like bloom dates, repotting and all the pictures along with names and prices of my plants.
Now the real big problem is the app isn’t even opening up after the latest Software update (14.2)!!! I’m scared to loose all of my data! Please fix the problem in an update.

Orchid kid

This is a great little sight. Very easy to use and not to much detail on the orchids breeds. Just what you need. Care and what you did for the problem. And lots of nice photos.

Good Basic App

This app pretty much does what I need to keep track of my collection. Would be nice if I could copy everything from my iPhone to iPad which has more space for writing as some of the text is truncated with a small screen.
29/7/17 seems to be a problem with attaching photos, although it lets you attach them it's blank.

Response from developer

Thank you for your feedback. A sync between iPhone and iPad will come as soon as there is an proper iPad version. For now the App is not meant to run on the iPad. :D If you still have a problem adding pictures please send me an email with more informations and I will try to help you. :)

Very helpful

I am so glad I got this app. It's so handy to have my orchid collection organized and on my phone. I like having it so easily accessible when I'm at a nursery or a show. The only reason I didn't give it five stars is because once you add the photos, you can't move them around. I take a photo of a new orchid to my collection, or of new growths or spikes, but then I'd like to have the bloom photo as the one that is used in the main list. I can't move the pictures around. Hoping this feature gets added in an update. Overall though it's very good.
