No images

When I try and ID a plant image, no images are shown

Plantnet good

Accurate identification by both flower and leaf

Excellent Collaborative Identifier

This is a collaborative plant identification database/locator, (not a plant care guide) based in France but AFAIK available worldwide. It's fast, free, non-invasive (har) and you can contribute your photos (and donate € as well). Thank you for sharing this with us.
PS As of 13 Sept 26, no difficulty using app in continental USA.

Wonderful help

Suggestions get you started in a good direction

Very helpful app

It is such a useful app to an octanarian whose memory is now rather poor

When it doesn’t crash it works.

9 times out of 10 it was sit in identification…. Screen and then crash.

Unable to access server error mssg

This was a great app. But now I’m blocked based on a “Your IP or country has been blocked by our infrastructure provider.” My IOS is up to date but no joy.

Really Helpful for all types of plant ID and Free!

Have been using this app for years and it’s helped me identify 100s of plants before they flower. Excellent free plant app

Great help for beginning gardener

So often things pop up and I don't known if I should weed them
out or not so this app is a great help with that.

Best plant ID I’ve found

This one seems to do so much better than all the others I’ve found. It gets it right most of the time and is free to use. I use it to help distinguish between wildflowers and weeds in my wildflower garden, before things start blooming. It generally gets the family correct but may not be correct on the exact variety until the flowers come out. I’m impressed with it, especially after trying others who almost never got it right.

Scam

This app is not free

Response from developer

We are sorry for this but PlantNet is a free plant identification service. There is no payment process within the app and no ads. Pl@ntNet is supported by many research institutes and donations which help it to stay free for everyone. You may confuse us with another plant identification application.

Plant net

Easy to use very helpful

Не работает

Вообще ничего не загружается, приложение не рабочее

Good but missing some things

It’s lacking the flora of caatinga in Brasil. And also cerrado, Brasil isn’t supposed to be in one category of territory searching, because it’s very diverse. Many plants in world flora should be specific to regions. Ornamental species get confused mixed with similar species, because of peoples lack of knowledge. It’s a very good app indeed.

Great free ap

Appreciate it. Much better than iPhone ap.

High marks on ability to identify

Despite uncertainties, very good results. More reference pictures would help
