Pretty lame app Free app until you take ten pictures the. It will cost you. Just like the pro version. Complete waste of money. Just google it.

This is a joke! This skinny tree with leaves like a skinny umbrella tree was first identified as two different flowering trees, then a Baobab tree, then a variety of hosta! Hilarious, pointless, and a TIME WASTER. Truly pathetic.

Tried three photos of one plant and all attempts were way off the mark. Useless

What more could you want? It’s extremely easy and so far has been completely accurate on the ones I double checked elsewhere. It seems to work equally well for flowers and trees. It has even worked on old pictures that I re-shot off my computer screen! I’m actually in awe of how this app can do what it does.

As someone who is a horticulturist, I thought this would be fun to try. But on the first five common house plants it only got two correct. Hmm. I can only guess how it works on more obscure plants. Quickly deleted it.

I down loaded this app and tested its knowledge on all my house plants and it got every single one of them wrong including my tomato plant! To bad, I have wanted someone to make an app like this for years! I guess I will keep waiting till I find one that actually works. UPDATE: Received a response from the developer stating the app is accurate if I used it properly and provided video links on how to use it. Sorry but if the initial directions given when the app is down loaded isn’t good enough than you app isn’t accurate end of story. No one should need to watch multiple videos just to get your app to work properly! Talk about putting it back on the customer! No thanks, I’m good.

App said that a Granny Smith was an edible fig. It also wants WAY TOO MUCH INFORMATION. Total rip off

I was excited to see an app to detect plants and identify them appropriately. Now, I understand the challenges in designing the algorithms to correctly identify shapes of the foliage, leaf pattern, veins, etc, which is why it provides a list of similar plants. Cool, I can sort through the list. The problems: 1. This app has never been able to detect any plants aside from those that are obvious. I wouldn’t waste my money on upgrading based on how terribly the app functions. 2. The free version is a joke, full of ads and restrictions - don’t waste your time. 3. When attempting to use the app today, it was only full of errors and could not detect the plant. Once the list showed up, there were no photos or additional information on the plants and I had to resort to Google to try to find photos and info of the plants on the list. 4. App saves all images to my photos. I’m assuming there’s a setting to prevent this but not going to waste any more time on this app. I don’t want every single photo saved to my phone. Ask me if I want to save the photo instead of automatically saving it. 5. An app like this should have capability for self-learning so every user helps eventually add new plants to the database. I’ve given this app the benefit of the doubt for quite a few months and it hasn’t improved even a bit. If anything, it’s gotten worse. Deleting the app. Great idea, poor execution.
