### 5/5 — Amazing

*2022-08-28, version 6.9*

I have tried many of these types of apps and either they are based in china or completely have the wrong information. I have been using this one to keep my plants growing at our home. My wife and I have no real plant knowledge so this app certainly solved this issue. I highly recommend it

### 2/5 — Meh

*2022-08-25, version 6.9*

I was excited and added my 20 different backyard plants and trees to the app. Using the free version, the information on each of the plants is minimal and random. I was able to upload my own pictures of the plants and that’s my favorite art of the app unfortunately.

The “My Care” section allows you to schedule what I suppose would be various tasks into a calendar and receive alerts on specific days. All that I’m able to schedule for my 20 plants is a watering schedule. We are on a drip system so we don’t need a watering schedule. We need a flowering schedule, pruning schedule, fertilizing schedule, etc. None of that is available, so the app is almost useless.

Another must have feature that is not available is adding notes to my individual plants. There is no spot to add my own comments other than hand-writing notes and then taking a picture of it. Lame

### 3/5 — looks cool but :/

*2022-07-28, version 6.9*

bruh i can’t even figure out how to add a task, i got this app so i could keep attack of my different watering days for each of my plants but i i am given no option to add a task to complete that. it keeps telling me i have no task but i don’t even know how to add any please help😭💔

### 3/5 — Wanted to like..

*2022-06-16, version 6.8*

Wanted to like but just can’t. Initially seemed intuitive (adding plants) however information on plants & care is extremely limited/vague, seems like they encourage you to send messages to their experts instead of posting information about plants so people can read. Watering schedule seems to have only one setting for one plant (once a week?)if there is more to it - it’s kinda hard to figure out. Also there IS option to sign up for month to month subscription however it’s not apparent when subscription is offered. A lot of good reviews.. why? I feel like I’m missing something. I signed up for premium service but interface/nothing changed, not sure what I payed for. A bit disappointed.

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2022-06-05, version 6.8*

I’m a beginner when it comes to plants and this app is very helpful. I haven’t killed a plant yet thanks to the tips and plant care advice from this app 🙏

### 5/5 — Great App!

*2022-01-29, version 6.7*

It makes taking care of plants super easy! It’s user friendly and I was able to find out my plants’ needs

### 5/5 — very helpful

*2022-01-24, version 6.7*

I found this app to be very helpful as a beginner plant mom! never knew there was an app to add my plants and read up on my plant care. i used to have to look up every plant over and over to remember how to care for them. i also love how it gives categories of trending plants & by which room

### 5/5 — Awesome app for plant lovers!

*2022-01-24, version 6.7*

This is a great tool for anyone with plants! I love all the different features that allows you to do your own research about pests and diseases, as well as purchase plants and materials for your plants. Also there is a chat with expert humans (not robots!) if you ever get stuck! Highly recommend!

### 1/5 — Too difficult

*2021-09-22, version 6.7*

Too difficult. I just want to identify and go on. Takes way too long to identify

### 4/5 — feels like a lucky find

*2021-08-14, version 6.7*

recent new user here. this app is a hidden gem for thrifty people who are just trying to grow a handful of plants and be conscientious about it. (if you can't find the exact plant, google can help you select an available proxy with the same needs...)
still a little rough around the edges designwise, smart plant home needs more love to continue developing!
