### 1/5 — Kinda misleading

*2026-04-19*

You do have to pay I think for most of the functions and it doesn’t tell you until you are mostly set up. Also kind of a really long setup with pop ups that feel poor and very ad like. Interesting premise but mostly a money grab….

**Developer response:** Thanks for the honest review, really. I'm a solo developer building this app, so notes like yours matter more than you'd think.

You're right that the pricing should be clearer earlier, and I hear you on the onboarding feeling long. I'm always trying to make this better, and this pushes that forward. Appreciate you taking the time.

### 1/5 — Is it free

*2026-03-04*

I honestly can't tell

### 5/5 — Makes running more fun!

*2025-12-29*

Great way to combine your love of running and nature!

### 5/5 — Loving my Virtual Gadern

*2025-06-24, version 1.43*

I mostly run alone or sometimes with a friend in park with plants all around me. I love seeing the same plants as achievements for completing a run. 

Also the UI is pretty clean, open the app, press record and start running. No Ads or banners asking me to pay every time. 

Highly recommend for nature lovers!

### 1/5 — Not working

*2025-05-27, version 1.1.1*

Cannot go past the subscription and making one does not work. I like the idea of the app, it still unusable at this point unfortunately.

### 5/5 — Perfect for runners

*2025-05-20, version 1.1*

I really like a lot of it, as I'm a runner myself. It has a really nice design and is great to use.

### 5/5 — Woww!! Just woww

*2025-05-16, version 1.1*

One of those apps where I don’t regret paying.

### 5/5 — Awesome App

*2025-05-16, version 1.1*

Really love the concept of the app, excited to earn more plant for garden
