Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Soil Test Pro at 3.7 against Weed Identifier's 1.0. Soil Test Pro also leads on ratings volume (14 vs 2). Weed Identifier's advantage is update cadence (every 5 days vs every 3 months) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 15.6). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Soil Test Pro holds the better App Store score, 3.7 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Soil Test Pro has 14 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 43% of Soil Test Pro's written reviews are positive against 50% of Weed Identifier's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Soil Test Pro ships an update every 3 months, Weed Identifier every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on September 7, 2026 and June 1, 2026 respectively.
