It only loads & loads & loads!!! This is terrible! Do not DOWNLOAD. I should’ve read the reviews before purchasing. ### 1/5 — Ungenügend *2026-04-18* Es ist sehr Teuer. Es geht auch ohne Bezahlen, dann muss man viele Videos anschauen. Funktioniert tut es trotzdem nicht. Es erkennt keine Pflanzen und eine Diagnose wird nie erstellt. Ich kann per App kein Goto machen, sondern muss es aus der Cloud hochladen. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t even works *2026-04-17* It is just a scam ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2026-04-15* It keeps showing ad after ad for the free version for diagnosing. I pointed it to my peace lily with browning leaves and it got stuck at “diagnosing”. Didn’t do anything further even after waiting for ten minutes. Rubbish app. Asks for rating and review before you’ve even used it! Uninstalled. ### 1/5 — даже потестить нельзя *2026-04-10* предлагает только денег заплати ь и рекламу посмотреть. за 3 рекламы ничего не определил и не диагностировал. помоечное приложение ### 1/5 — Лохотрон? *2026-04-10* Не работает. Платную версию даже не стоит и пробовать!!! Зачем такие приложения выставлять? ### 1/5 — Not good *2026-04-08* It just pop up the subscription page and when i click “X” it doesn’t close ### 1/5 — Very annoying *2026-04-05, version 1.6.12* Very annoying advertisement, extremely high subscription fees ### 1/5 — Не работает *2026-03-30* Ничего не находит, куча рекламы еще и денег стоит. ### 1/5 — All I will do is analyze *2026-03-28, version 1.6.12* I tried several times diagnosis and all it does is say in the analyze mode let it run 10 min ### 1/5 — Poor *2026-03-28, version 1.6.12* Couldn’t identify the first plant I took a photo of ! Mis identified it as a snake plant when it’s an orchid . Not very impressed ### 1/5 — terrible *2026-03-26, version 1.6.12* you cannot do anything without ads and even with the ad it doesn’t let you you have to pay hella money ### 1/5 — Не работает *2026-03-09* Не работает совсем. Рекламу показывает, а растение не распознает ### 1/5 — It’s not letting me cancel my subscription *2026-02-06, version 1.6.10* It was a waste of money honestly. ### 1/5 — Not easy to use as the promo suggests. *2026-01-26, version 1.6.10* The app makes it seem easy to identify issues with a specific plants health. Take a photo, identify problem. Change care plan. Plant thrives. Now your app is giving me very vague instructions , like it may be too much water or not enough water. Make sure the watering is suitable for this plant. They gives me know detailed instructions. Becomes another guessing game. ### 1/5 — Less than one star *2025-12-27, version 1.6.6* The App could not identify my garden plants, it kept shutting down after I snapped a photo, and it would not let me connect to my iPhone email to ask for help. Save your money, very disappointed!!! ### 1/5 — Too slow *2025-12-14, version 1.6.6* Too slow at analyzing ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — :/ *2026-07-11, version 1.11.0* Bought a years subscription to this app after watching constant ads on You Tube about how brilliantly the app identifies plant problems and offers suitable remedy Immediately took it to a struggling cutting that i hoped was a lost blueberry rooted cutting, recently found in heavy undergrowth, which i then moved to new site. Plant AI said it was Japanese knotweed! i tried again Plant AI said it was African milk bush I tried again. Plant AI said it could not identify the plant over and over again I tried to diagnose the plant The app wanted me to buy another app which could not identify either i tried the 2 free apps Plant finder said it was Sacred Bamboo although did identify a pear tree also struggling in what i hoped would be a fruit hedge Plant Net agreed that it was a blueberry ### 1/5 — WORTHLESS *2026-06-30, version 1.10.0* Not only could this app not identify what is wrong with my plant—I AM SICK TO DEATH OF ADS!!!! Deleted app. ### 1/5 — Diagnóstico *2026-06-30, version 1.10.0* Tarda demasiado ### 1/5 — Disappointed *2026-06-14, version 1.9.0* Not as advertised ### 1/5 — Junk app *2026-06-05, version 1.9.0* Literally just says sick plant, takes too long to load the reason and can’t click on the reason why it’s sick to figure out what they need - don’t waste your time regular AI apps have more insight and ability to help for free ### 1/5 — Terrible waste of money. *2026-05-26, version 1.8.0* I didn’t realize it was it a free trial and now stuck. It has identified maybe 1 plant out of 20 so far others saying “can’t identify”. The diagnoses spins endlessly and never responds or app quits. ### 1/5 — Diagnóstico *2026-05-21, version 1.8.0* Tarda demasiado ### 1/5 — Giving me error *2026-05-19, version 1.8.0* Very bad ### 1/5 — Wortless *2026-05-18, version 1.8.0* I tried identifying and analyzing four plants. Received message not connected or try again multiple times. Gave up and cancelled subscription‼️. ### 1/5 — Just advertisements no app *2026-05-09* I was shown 15 minutes of back to back advertisements and given the option to buy the pro version. After making zero progress I deleted the app. ## Most praised reviews (7 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — floower *2026-08-09, version 1.11.0* tinar ### 5/5 — Plants *2026-03-03, version 1.6.10* Great app ### 5/5 — Love it *2025-11-08, version 1.6.3* Amazing app! ### 5/5 — Diagnosis *2025-08-08, version 1.4* I thought I would get direction on how to take care of a plant after diagnosis.
