Tried for the first time on a simple snowdrop plant and it could not identify this plant. Tried twice with different pictures and still no go. Google was able to identify it immediately. Will try again on a different plant but so far I think Google does a better job. Since my initial review I have tried this app several more times with indoor house plants (original try was on an outside plant). The app was able to successfully identify several plants with no problem. My only issue is that it seems to take a fairly long time to process. **Developer response:** Thank you for sharing your experience with PlantMind. We’re sorry to hear the app wasn’t able to identify your snowdrop plant accurately. Plant identification can sometimes be affected by factors like lighting, background, or the angle of the photo, but your feedback is valuable and helps us improve. We’re continuously working to enhance recognition accuracy, and we hope your next try yields better results. If you continue having trouble, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us through the live chat in the app’s Settings — we’d be happy to help. Thank you again for giving PlantMind a try. ### 3/5 — Not sure *2025-04-08, version 2.1.2* Ot sure if I like it yet haven’t really gotten to try it will update later ### 4/5 — Works most of the time *2025-03-16* I like being able to identify plants with ease.

Die App sollte auf einem iPad Mini 5 mit iPadOS 18.3.1 mit Lifetime Access eigentlich laufen, oder irre ich mich ? Schade ! ### 1/5 — Free app for life *2025-03-09, version 2.0.2* Review was done to get app for free I’ve yet used it. ### 1/5 — Where’s the unlimited *2025-03-09, version 2.0.2* There is no unlimited choice on the bottom ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2025-03-09, version 2.0.2* I was excited for the app. But every snapshot I take it says Something went wrong. That’s been 100% of the time. I’ll have to delete the app. ### 1/5 — Horrible *2025-03-08, version 2.0.2* App closes when trying to take a picture.
