### 1/5 — Wrong app

*2021-01-28*

Unfortunately didn’t read the small print. It only detects on some fruit and vegetables not flowering plants. Refund would be nice

**Developer response:** This app uses artificial intelligence to recognize plants. It took hundreds of pictures to being trained in order to get those plant categories working to get the best accuracy. Also you can get a refund, but you didn't contact me. There's a button to contact me directly within the app, however you didn't.

### 1/5 — shouldn’t have spent the $6

*2020-12-30*

doesn’t do plants. only vegetables

**Developer response:** Dear user, you're wrong. This app uses artificial intelligence to recognize plants. Please contact me to tell me what was your problem to help you. Also you can get a refund, but you didn't contact me. There's a button to contact me directly within the app, however you didn't.

### 1/5 — Poor identification

*2020-11-12*

It is not identifying correctly and the search is not working.

**Developer response:** Dear user,
which was the plant you scanned? Take note of the plants allowed for this app. Also you have a direct button to contact me and send me a picture, within the app. You just got your own conclusions, without asking. Being collaborative could help to others.

### 1/5 — Awful

*2024-07-24*

Very bad application d’ont buy

### 1/5 — Worthless App! Save your money!

*2022-06-13*

Failed to identify a tomato plant, a jalapeño plant, a basil plant, or even a rose bush. Identified a picture of my fingertip as a “healthy corn plant”. The worst part is NO REFUNDS!! (Tried to get a refund but Apple has no record of my purchase!)

### 1/5 — Failed to identify a clearly diseased leaf

*2022-06-12, version 1.8*

Stated leaf was healthy.  Waste of money.

### 1/5 — Chile plant

*2022-04-08*

Chile plant: The leaves are shrinking and drying and the result was “your plant is healthy” 😳 I couldn’t get any other result. I paid for it?

### 1/5 — Waste of money

*2021-11-14*

Just wasted $2.99 This application is single minded, not easy to navigate . Take picture and it if give you an answer but not much more. Waste of money and time. Will give 0 stars

### 1/5 — Not working for me

*2021-06-28*

Didn’t realize this app only works on fruits and veggies . It  didn’t work on my other trees and shrubs. Brought it ten minutes ago and it failed to identify what I needed identified. Need to see if I can get my money back.

**Developer response:** Dear user, yes, this app is very straightforward and easy to manage, so you can get your results in less than ten minutes as you commented. 
This app uses artificial intelligence to recognize plants. It is explained in the description in the Apple Store what type of plants this app recognizes. This app works fine and you rated it as it was the app fault. Please contact me to tell me what was your problem to help you. Also you can get a refund, but you didn't contact me. It has been used thousands of pictures of each category to get the best accuracy identifying the plant diseases. There's a button to contact me directly within the app, however you didn't.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2021-06-21*

I tried to get this app to identify my hot peppers and five times it got it wrong. Once it got Apple which looks completely different. This app just does not work. I want a refund!

### 1/5 — Freezes. Nonfunctional

*2021-06-07*

Terrible waste of time taking photos that then won’t upload or go to next phase.

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2021-06-03*

Doesn’t work, it crashes immediately after you take a picture. Complete and utter waste of money!

### 1/5 — Plants disease identifier

*2021-03-11, version 1.3*

I have paid for the use of this app, but am completely unable to use it. I am trying to identify a pest I have on my Albizia julibrissin, have taken photos but can’t post them. If I can’t get some help with this I want my money back. I object to allowing this app to have access to all my photos, many of them are private. Please help me. Val.

### 5/5 — Accurate plant disease detector

I find this tool very interesting and accurate to detect several plant disease that I found. As I have some plants growing like tomatoes and peppers

### 2/5 — Just a guess

*2021-10-12*

After taking 3 photos the plant concern and receiving a different answer each time, was not provided with the correct issue with the plant.  Emailed for further review to be advised, 'It seems to be..'  Suggest it's just a guess...
