Ratings and reviews

Mostly using it to identify plants as I short-list things I want for my garden, and choosing based on the light / soil requirements. It works well enough, though I wish I could search by soil pH or hardiness. The overall catalogue integrity is okay, but not amazing, i.e. I search succulents and see a lot of non-succulents in the results, and not every plant has imagery or a profile. That said, it's pretty good overall.

I downloaded this app specifically to use the plant identifier tool, but uts nowhere to be seen! There isn't a menu on the Home page, nothing under "Discover" either. Very irritating!! edit- I've discovered it on a random icon, but you have to subscribe to use it. I wish apps would be upfront about charges before making you set up an account.

great app for everything but solving problems once they are there. I have a plant that was just called foliage. This app identified it to me and told me position, watering and feeding needs for the time of year. However, I really needed it to give me possible reasons for one leaf turning yellow. I could not find how to do this anywhere on the app.
