Does not give any indication in app store listing that it costs money. Does not indicate that in order to use it you have to create a login just to try it for 3 days or a week. The listing says free with some ads. It should say free trial or a starting price . The price is not the problem, it's the false expectation. When you install a ''free'' app you expect it to work with ads. Please be more up front with how your app works

Very dissapointed. So many ads and buying options on the screen that very little plant ID info is visible. More a plant shopping app. Wasnt able to find a way to create a personal library of plants searched for reference, etc. Very limited pictures of plant to use as comparison or to see it in other stages. App has been useless to me. I work at a public garden and am constantly ask to identify plants. Maybe i'm using it wrong. But then it should be more intuitive. Switched back to Picture This.

Works great and as expected for a free app. Very easy to use. I like that you can take a photo of the plant or flower with the actual app, or load a picture from your phone's picture gallery for identification. Sometimes can't seem to find the correct flower or plant, but most times I can. The only downside is that some plants and flowers seem to be incorrectly identified and added to the app's photo lineup of a plant making a correct identification tricky.

Alisha, thank you very much for your kind review and your important remarks! 😍 💚 If you followed our tutorials and still didn't get an accurate result, it's possible our database isn't trained for that specific plant (yet!). Feel free to share your results at support@plantsnap.net 💚 PlantSnap - Identify plants, trees & flowers
