Scammers

Purchased this app a while back and looks like the developers have deleted it off the App Store and republished it with a monthly subscription model.
So now I don’t have lifetime access like I originally did.

Terrible - I would give it negative stars!

Subscribed for free 7 day trial. Watched the tutorial and then took photos of very common UK garden flowers in my garden and it got all wrong. It suggested every one was a tropical plant. Utter rubbish. Don’t waste your time downloading.

Adverts in your face when trying to identify plant

You’re just lining up your camera, trying to focus and bang, a 20 second advert on your screen.
Poor accuracy and many errors of ‘there was an error identifying your image’ we are sorry for the inconvenience. Please try again!
These failed attempts use up some of your 25 free a day.
Time to try another app. Feels clunky slow and cluttered

Not great

Wasn’t impressed. It couldn’t actually identify my seedlings. I stupidly forgot to label what I’d sown. So wanted to check which was which before I planted them up outside. I was told with the few I had checked, that they were something I hadn’t planted. It couldn’t even identify the broccoli I had planted (one I had remembered to label).
I’ll try a different app.

Everything is knotweed

Useless. Identified 95% of plants as knotweed, tells me wildly different results for the same plant 5 seconds apart, completely useless.

Totally Fraudulent App

Beware. Completely fraudulent. The app claimed to offer a 7 day free trial but I have been charged for a yearly subscription. Are you kidding me. Blatantly fraudulent. Will be reporting to Apple and requesting a full refund. Avoid.

Amazing app! However one question! 😊

I think this app is brilliant! Weather your young or old. I only have one question that I wanted to ask: if I take a snapshot of a picture and then share it, if I delete that picture I’ve taken and then shared from my photos, will my post be deleted to?
Thank you 😊

Really impressed!

I’ve had this app for a few months now and I’m really impressed! I got it as I’m fairly new to gardening and wanted to check if a few things were weeds before I pulled them out. It is very simple and easy and I’ve been able to save the few unusual flowers etc to my page so that I can refer back to them too. Great app!

Portrait mode

I’ve only tried for a few mins. A common negative from me is that devs often offer support for portrait rather than both portrait and landscape mode for IPad users.
I don’t mind the account logging in, or adverts or limited use as I wouldn’t need to use anything like this often.
the portrait only mode is ugly on iPads and is enough for me to delete an app unless it’s absolutely required eg for smart devices. But I love the idea of their app in general :)

Far too much data-skimming...

The app insists on:
1. Email registration (I can understand that)
2. Sharing data with Google - why?
3. Access to Photos - why?
Without ALL of those agreed to, it refuses to even start.
Feels like this is more for data-skimming than anything else.

Tracy

I have recently moved into a new home and wanted to know the names of the plants as I am not very knowledgeable, as it was unable to recognise a fuschia, eucalyptus and a bottle brush plant I didn’t have much confidence in the rest of the garden being correct so will delete and look else where

This is a fantastic way to identify the flowers and plants I find when walking around. And it's amazing that if the plant isn't in the database, you can send for identification. 🌿🌸

Shocking Response to Customers

I thought I’d try the app - but came to write a review and saw the shocking responses of the app developers to previous customers taunting and insulting those who have written negative replies. Very unprofessional. So I am deleting the app.

Marketing scam

Signed up and have received dozens of marketing emails - I never agreed to receive a single thing from them! And their unsubscribe page purposefully doesn’t work and they won’t contact me back! I have no way of stopping these messages flooding my inbox from this shady company or close my account

Not very useful

The app hasn’t been able to accurately identify 90% of the plant photos I’ve tried. No matter how close up I take the photos of the flowers and leaves it rarely seems to identify the correct plant, as what identifies will look completely different and usually is not found in South Africa where I live. Maybe it’s because we have so many plants that are completely unique to our country (Table Mountain National Park has more species of flora than the whole of Europe) and they just haven’t really loaded many South African plants on the app. I hike a lot and often see so many beautiful plants and flowers and wonder what they are so was really hoping this app would be useful but it’s not.

Used it to try and identify a potted lavender so pretty easy, it selected everything which was astonishing, probably the worst app I have ever used based on this example.

Too in my face!

I don’t enjoy giving negative reviews but I have to.
This app is just SO needy!!
Accept this. Agree to that. Take this and that and those onboard. And all this nonsense is before you’ve even got started. I don’t just mean all the normal and acceptable (or not) requests to access your camera etc. They want your full name FFS.
And every click you make they are watching you, constantly getting in your face and asking or promoting more and more.
I just wanted a gentle walk on the beach identifying some plants. I showed the app rock samphire and it was misidentified. Same with a few other plants.
This app is not just annoying and inaccurate but from a foraging point of view it is actually dangerous to the point of life threatening!

Almost laughable

Absolute rubbish!! I thought it would be too good to be true! If you are fairly well informed on many plants and you want to identify that one plant that you don’t know then the probability is this app won’t know either!!

Didn’t know the plant I needed identified

I bought this app for one plant in my garden which is quite distinctive or bright red stems.
I have emailed expert but hear nothing. So didn’t help me at all.
Update! Just found it had been taking money every month!

It’s ok

I understand apps need to make money but to limit the amount of photos I can take a day because I want the free version is ridiculous. The are tons of ads on the free version aswell so for them to bug you with ads and still limit the amount of pics makes this app pointless to me, it’s a good app but I’m not using it anymore

Tried 3 photos but results nowhere close

I may be a rubbish photographer but all the results given were not remotely similar to my plants. I’m almost sure that 2 of the 3 are herbs. Another app I tried wasn’t correct either so I’ll take my chances with a human in future.

Why do you need to sign up?!

Deleted immediately, as it isn’t possible to use this app without first signing up. What is that all about? Why should users have to sign up just to use a plant identification app?
Sorry, but there are other apps available which allow you to install and use immediately without giving your personal details.
Also, having read other less than positive reviews, it seems to me that you cannot take negative feedback constructively. One reviewer in particular being referred to as “foolish” and sarcastically being offered a job for stating what is actually quite correct. It IS possible to use an app like this without giving access to photos!
Any business owner knows that customer feedback, even if it may be negative on some way, is useful as it allows you to consider options. One thing that is an absolute no-no is to make fun or customers and take the micky out of them.
I feel your app is doomed to failure as you are unwilling to accept criticism which could help you make changes which would make it more user-friendly. Plant ID apps are ten-a-penny, with some of the best ones completely free (I don’t mind small adverts in the bottom of the screen) and without having to sign up.
All in all, a mediocre app no better than any other, but arrogance from the owners puts it firmly in the Could Do Better category.
Bye.
