### 1/5 — Inutilisable

*2025-05-21, version 6.0.3*

L’application est complètement inutilisable elle crash dès l’ouverture aussi bien sur iPhone que sur iPad

### 2/5 — Muchos fallos

*2024-08-12, version 6.0.1*

En si la aplicación y sus utilidades están muy bien. Pero no para de dar fallas; no se me añaden nuevas plantas, las acciones no funcionan y no me guarda datos, llega a ser frustrante :(

### 2/5 — Et des bugs pas résolus

*2023-11-25, version 5.2.1*

Bugs pas résolus depuis 1 an

### 2/5 — Gros bof pour moi

*2023-04-09, version 5.1*

Cette application n’est pas intuitive, et pas tres personnalisable. Les plans sont basiques, les associations de plantes aussi. Elle rame beaucoup. Pour une application payante je trouve que c’est vraiment limite.

### 1/5 — Ne marche pas

*2023-03-09, version 5.1*

Téléchargée aujourd’hui, bug tout le temps, appli non utilisable. Dommage

### 1/5 — Pas fini

*2022-08-12, version 5.1*

Une étoile car impossible de créer un potager depuis l’application celle ci reste bloquée à la création de celui ci donc j’en reste la

### 2/5 — Plutôt déçue

*2022-05-31*

J’ai payé pour une année, je reste au Canada 
La météo n’est pas fiable … 
Pas extra de devoir faire certaines choses pour réussir à en faire d’autres, j’ai pas envie de jouer 
Les concombres ne vont pas avec les courgettes, ils s’entrecroisent et se déforment !!!
Une bonne recherche sur l’internet a autant si non plus de résultats que cette application 
Merci

### 3/5 — Attention

*2022-05-17, version 5.1*

Bonne appli mais certaine donne sont contradictoire avec les sites de jardins spécialisé. Concernant les compagnons de culture idéal, exemple carotte et menthe sont à proscrire alors que l’appli considère que ce sont des compagnons idéaux

### 1/5 — Appli bcp trop chère vu le résultat !!!

*2022-03-15, version 5.0.8*

Ça ne fonctionne pas et bug en permanence. Extrêmement cher pour avoir une appli qui est très limitée, très lente et n’apporte rien. Hormis bien sûr vous proposer d’acheter tout un tas de choses et d’en faire la publicité.

### 1/5 — L'app crash au démarrage

*2021-11-27, version 4.3.6*

Impossible de lancer l'app sur iPhone 11 Pro (iOS 15.1). L'app crash au démarrage, je vois juste l'écran d'accueil avant qu'elle se ferme.
