Plantion: plant identification 4+

Loving this app!

We were blessed enough to buy a home with of variety of different plants in various garden beds. I know little about plants and the previous owner was unaware of what many of them were. I am creating a list of each type of plant and learning to care for them. I also can't wait to use it when the time comes to sell to educate the future homeowners on the treasurers they will be receiving! I can say, "Oh, look at this Fuzzy Deutzia!" And sound so smart. Haha

free level is not as helpful as developers indicate

The developers' comments suggest their free version (not the problematic free trial) is quite useful. In fact, there is little you can learn here that you could not find more quickly on Google. The plant ID feature, diagnosis and treatment are only available in the expensive paid version. At just under $120 a year, I can buy a lot of plants and plant care books (or use online resources). This is way overpriced. I deleted the app in under 30 minutes. The developer wrote and said my evaluation was untrue regarding identification as it was available for free. It appears to be true only if you are willing to sign up for a free trial. I am not, based on other user’s challenges in canceling. Treatments were suggested for free but were quite general and not specific without the diagnostic function (which was not available except in the problematic free trial). The treatments suggested were no better than what a free 30 second Google search could find. I still do Not Recommend.

Read all the reviews complaining the app can’t ID common plants. Did you know the Photo app on iPhones can identify plants? It works quite well. It won’t tell you how to treat a plant that is diseased though.

Hello. This is not true, because the identification functionality is available for free. Also, the plant care guides, automatic plant care schedule, access to all the information etc are available for any user inside our app.

Miss Identified and fraudulent information! Complete total misrepresentation

Was pretty excited to try this app, went to use it and it forced me to sign up and pay for services. It offers you a free seven day trial after which point they start charging you $10 a week… Yes $10 a week!!!!! That is more than any streaming app out there. In addition to that, I was charged before my seven day trial was up. When I went back to read their little fine print, it says that it offers you a free, seven day trial, but if you don’t cancel the subscription within the first 24 hours after signing up, you’re going to get charged regardless. This is such a misleading disgusting and dishonest thing to do. not once has this app properly identified any issues that I am having, nor has it properly identified any plants. Absolutely do not recommend this app. Don’t waste your money, don’t get scammed! I am just appalled by this. I really want my money back.

Please, contact us via email so we could investigate the issue. If you ever try our app and than reinstall it after using free trial, the trial is not available. This is the Apple's subscription policy
