Has been very helpful
Made such a difference to my garden and house plants. I definitely have learned an awful lot more with it and my garden has prospered because of it
Any ecological app should not use AI. It’s like animal rights activists selling pork. Please do your research if you don’t know why AI is bad for the environment
Makes it simple and correctly identifies plant
It’s perfect for a novice gardener like me with identification, plant care and how to cure a sick plant
This the best plant app out there. I’ve tried a lot of the others but this one is by far the best!
I can’t live without this app! We have a lot of foliage in our yard and this helps tremendously!
it does not always work poor set up
Awful add is fake find out what app they used in the add
This app is terrible, it won’t let me use it unless I buy a subscription plan . My friend bought it and it didn’t even work for him. It told him that the plant was healthy when it was dead. DO NOT GET THIS WASTE OF MONEY
I take beautiful clear photos. This app misclassified 4 different common flowers. It was ridiculous how poorly this app functions. Very disappointing.
Once you accept free trial, they charge you right away. No wonder I can see this advertisement everywhere. Because it’s either a scam or a useless app.
Sucks wrong diagnosis!
I enjoy

Very helpful with maintaining health of my plants.
I wanted to diagnose my plants with the help of this app. Instead, the app wants me to give my plants names and I guess I’m supposed to figure out what’s wrong and then just keep a journal here. I paid for your subscription for the help of my plants. And now I have to diagnose them myself.😡😡😡🤬
Good
It does not diagnose it just recognizes. What good is that?
I am Getting my Green Thumb from this App & I absolutely LOVE IT!! I can’t afford the subscription, and that’s okay because the free version is just what I need. Starting off slow and simple.
