Amazing to use, but the email thing where you have to confirm it’s you is REALLY Annoying. Also, could you add hibernation months? So you can set when to slow down watering, fertilizer, and sunlight amounts? Thanks! Again, amazing app, I hope it gets more popular. ### 5/5 — Love this app for the ability to add my own plants! *2025-09-25* I had used so many other plant apps but once you get into collecting rare and uncommon plants it’s basically impossible to add them to your plant libraries since they just don’t exist in most apps. I like this app because I can add my own plants and do all the research for their care. Sometimes I do wish the library was larger so I could just find all of my plants. I know some of them would just be in the libraries of other apps. But i never find an app that has all of them (or even most unfortunately 😅) and they don’t allow you to add your own without lengthy approval wait times. Which is hard when you have like 50+ plants that aren’t in their libraries. The only other thing I wish they had is a humidity range section in the plant care list. They have basically every other plant need in the list of things to add besides humidity. And some plants really do need it. I’ve been adding it to the top of the plant description but that does make it easier to miss. Overall though, this app is great! It isn’t incredibly fancy but when you have so many plants you don’t really have time for super fancy anyways. 😂😂 ### 3/5 — Może być lepiej *2025-01-30, version 3.1.13* 1. Atlas nie ma czasem podstawowych roślin. 2. Polecam wziąć opisy z Longman Pielęgnowanie Roslin Pokojowych. Konkrety. Bo co to znaczy podlewać co jakiś czas?? 3. Reminder. powinien mieć opcje powtarzania co wybraną ilość dni i schematy lato/zima. Bo teraz każde podlewanie muszę wprowadzić ręcznie. Bez sensu kompletnie. Wprowadzam raz i powtarzaj co 3 dni latem i co 7 dni zimą.I mi się dniówka wyświetla co mam podlać. To samo z nawożeniem. 4. Polecam wprowadzić ikony przynajmniej dla światła i ilości wody + legenda. Ikony klikalne przy roślinach prowadzące do legendy. See np opisy doniczek kwiatków w Ikei. Że trzeba takie rzeczy tłumaczyć…;). ### 2/5 — Średnia *2024-11-19, version 3.1.8* Fajny pomysł na aplikację ale nie działają powiadomienia zarówno na androidzie jak i na iOS ### 3/5 — Super, ale…. *2024-06-09, version 3.0.8* Super, ale w iOS brakuje możliwości włączenia powiadomień, a głównie po to była mi aplikacja ### 5/5 — Łatwa i prosta aplikacja *2024-05-24, version 3.0.8* Wszystko działa super tylko dlaczego nie można wykupić opcji premium ? ### 4/5 — Fajna apka, ale dwie drobne uwagi *2024-03-05, version 3.0.6* Aplikacja jest super, bardzo ładne grafiki roślin. Dzięki niej nie muszę się zastanawiać kiedy podlać i nawieźć roślinę 😊 Mam jednak problem z brakiem powiadomień - aplikacja przenosi do ustawień systemowych ale nie ma suwaka powiadomień (IPhone 14). Również mogłoby być więcej darmowych kategorii, gdyż jest to wymagane aby dodać roślinę. Myślę że 5 w zupełności by wystarczyło. ### 2/5 — Słabo *2024-02-24, version 3.0.5* Testuję aplikację już jakiś czas ale nawet po aktualizacji nie zapisują się wprowadzone dane! Sytuacja z dziś: pokazuje roślinę do podlania, która była podlana kilka dni wcześniej bo nie zapisała się notatka o podlaniu.. no ręce opadają. Szkoda czasu na pilnowanie dodatkowo aplikacji bo raz zapisze a raz nie. ### 3/5 — J *2024-02-20* Dear Developer: the life time price is insane Was using this app since more than a year now.
