3 days free but they want your payment details. I never give card details unless I am sure I will use an app long term.

### 1/5 — Not Great

*2024-05-31*

This app only correctly identified one plant. I tested it on plants I already knew to see if it was worth it and it only got one right. I tried multiple pictures of the same plant to get the best shot and it still couldn’t identify even closely. It called my Delphinium plant a tomato. Kind of wild. Definitely not worth it.

Pretty angry that when I trialed your app apple took my money for a whole year out even though I cancelled the subscription on day 3 before end of trial period. I want my money back I never signed up for a years subscription just to try it apple won’t give me money back as I need to go through the 3rd party app owner I have tried 6 times and still nothing. Apple can’t even give me a contact number to get through to you to have my money refunded. 
Return my $59.99 to my account a never wanted your app and only trialed it 1 night. 

This is disgusting that you can just take peoples money for nothing.
