Garden Answers Plant Id app good for
Very nice app for novice gardeners and plant lovers for identifying flowers.
App is super useful! Completly free and no adds. Lots of options too- search the plant by name, by image, etc. Plus, once you find what a plant is called, you learn about it, and how to identify it. If the app cant educate you due to lack of information, then it shows websites that you can use to learn yourself. You can even email an expert. Great app!
Ive tested it on a few pictures I have and it matched 8/10. Some of the photos werent the best either. Quite impressed so far. Good for a free app.
My neighbor and I are amateur gardeners but we love our flowerbeds and cant wait until spring! The other day while we were trying to figure out what a plant was? She said she wished there was an app that took a picture of the plant you couldnt find the name for and then give you info about it. Me, being the app lover that I am, went right to the app store and downloaded this one! I have used it so many times! I love it! I have already sent in questions for the experts and they answer pretty quickly. Love this app!!!
Such a neat app. So useful and fast. Helped me determine what to weed and what to leave in the "mature garden" at the house I just bought.
Friendly well written responses with tips on care/maintenance. So happy I downloaded it.
My puppy really loves to be outside and I am well aware that there and many plants that could be harmful to her. She chewed on a shrub that I had no idea what it was, but with this app I was able to tell it was not a shrub that would be harmful to dogs. 5/5 great app, would recommend to anyone
Some bad moments
Finding out what type of plant I had was difficult. It gave me a bunch of suggestions then when I clicked on one that was similar to the plant it lead me to a bunch of unrelated articles.
If you want something more accurate go google a description of the plant and where you found it (ie. Ontario, Florida, etc.).
Used the option to upload photo and hear back within 24 hours after confirming email address with identification. Submitted 3 days ago and did not receive information.
There is no professional that emails you back as to what plant you have. This app is useless.
Just uploaded to try it out and having no luck. Continue to receive error message when taking photo trough app as well as uploading from library. No good if cant get passed step 1. Also tried reloading app after deleting but getting same error response.
Waste my time
OK. Lets try this again. Do not get this app. It is a canard in the true sense of the word...a hoax or out and out lie. I first posted a photo of an unusual perennial I saw in Ireland. It came back as a bush that looked nothing like the photo. Then to test it I posted a very clear photo of a common white single petal rose with a golden crown in the center. The first choice I was offered was that it was a periwinkle. Is this a joke? I tested it twice more and got ridiculous answers. But of course I could pay for an "expert" to look at the photo and probably come up with the right answer. I say again, do not get this app. I am deleting it right now. I would give it negative stars if I could.
Has failed to identify any of the flowers through a photo so far.
