I wanted to give this app a great review. Unfortunately,it is a pay for it to use the abilities of the app. Otherwise, it plays a nice gesture to make you believe it will work. I couldn't get it to work and I refused to pay to V.I.P just to get a reference on my plant. It does trick yah a bit as says add your photo of your plant to let the app analysis the image (in the free section), which I sent my photo in of a young sapling, it excepted the image and right back to home page(no photo worked)2

Very poor app. Google Lens is 10 times better and free also. This app can't even see my picture gallery when I said ok for it to see my picture's . + it just kept looking at the picture and never gave me a result. It was just a dog. Useless app. Sorry guys but you need to go back to the drawing board on this one.

The app description was intriguing so I took a chance and downloaded it. On my first attempt with the app, I took a picture of my cat and just a few moments later, it correctly identified my Manx cat.

The app failed to identify a plant, common round here, the very first time I used it. It is not a cultivar. It even, as one choice (of five) said the obvious herb could be a tree! The plant is in flower. I installed the app to find out the name of the plant. I am now going to uninstall the app because it's rubbish.

App thought that a common rat snake was a whale. No snakes were offered as a potential choice. Arguably the worst animal ID app I've used. EDIT: Developer left a patronizing comment about how it's 94 percent accurate. Absolute bull. Would give this app -1 star at this point.

if it is a free trial, why do I have to pay upfront? Being on a fixed income, trying to figure out if a snake is venomous or harmful to pets and people is almost impossible with all the pay-go gates, and make all this info useless. I have the plant identifier subscribed to, and that is approximately 75% accurate.

Was hoping this would be a good app to help identify plants. I downloaded and tested with 4 basic plants that are easy to identify. Not one was even close. Uninstalled.

I've just uninstalled this app. It would be great but you can't upload photos already in your library. If this is a feature I can't work out how to do it anyway. Having received a prompt reply from the developers, you CAN upload from the library so now the app is great. Thanks to the developers for their help.

Very disappointed with ID capability of this app. I originally installed to try, then thought maybe it would be better if I purchased which I did. The app remains disappointing and I wish I had not purchased it. Refund would be great. Yours in disappointment Sally
