Garden Answers Plant Id App Reviews

This is now once again an fantastic great app. Now I can finally depend on the experts, once again; The features are awesome and a bigger help, I thank you very much for this update, that I didnt had to delete it.

This is an amazing app! So far all my questions have been answered! THANK YOU!!!

I received a beautiful any from family and could not figure out what it was , now I know its a plumeria - thank you .

Cant click button to take picture.

Waiting for a call-back from my local botanic garden (sent them 3 pictures over a week ago) I came across this app. . Just took a picture with this app and got an instantaneous correct response! Cross checked with Google, Wikipedia for details. Its an obscure weed/herb. Terrific. Im going to recommend this app to all.

Updated 2nd Version: 2 Stars - Uses justvisual.com computer generated to identify plants/flowers in this new version. It shows you pictures of variations of what the plant/flower is and then you would have to guess and choose the picture from pictures it generated as identification. You dont get feedback for help like before and whoever helped you knew what the plant was. You dont have that with this new version. For that...the app function got worst. It stated they dont have the means to pay someone to identify the plants/flowers and use their time for it anymore. Original 1st Version: 5 Stars - Allows 20 uploads within a month to identify flowers in the garden and give information on pests and diseases. You chose one of four: PLANT ID, PROBLEM ID, ESSENTIALS, NOTIFICATIONS. I usually chose plant/problem id and take a picture/chose from (only one) photo of the flower and type situation. It then opens up your devices email as new email to check before sending the email. I usually receive responses very quickly like within 2-3 hours. Helped me identify flowers: evening primrose, periwinkle (minor vinca), and advice on rust on hollyhock. Thanks! Hope you guys continue this service. :) I would be sad to hear it discontinue. Such great service/app!

This app is incredible! Take a picture of your plant and within seconds you have name and how to take care of it!

Tried this on common plants such as mums. Wouldnt you know it my flowering mums are really boxwood?

There is a beautiful plant in a neighbors garden that Ive been wanting to identify for a while. Took a photo today, came home, Googled "plant identifier", this app came up, I downloaded it, followed the directions and—voila!—I had the name of the plant!

Worked well for me. I guess the plants I tried it on mightve had more distinctive flowers and foliage than others but it got them all right. It never used to work when I first downloaded it but Im glad I gave it another try after the updates.

My wife loves this APP!!! It will stop her From guessing what what the plant is. Thanks,

Ive used this app for over a year and had a great experience when I first tried it last winter. When May came around, the app changed from Garden Compass to what is now Garden Answers, and went straight downhill after that. When it was Garden Compass, I would receive real answers in usually the same day with tips if I had a problem with a plant and suggestions on how to make the most of it. Now submissions often go unanswered, and this is the latest submission I received, which came nearly two weeks after I sent in a photo: Hello, Should have done this in the spring time when new growth started. Its going through transplant shock. Hopefully the container has good drainage and you used a premium potting mix. Dont over water it. Just be patient.with it and see what happens. There are no tips on how to fix my issue here, just hindsight suggestions on what I should have done, not what I can do. This response is almost insulting to me as a grower. Dont use this app, the overwhelming negative reviews arent here because it works.

Could not identify anything, including a distinctive plant like a begonia.

Great app. Whenever I have a question about a plant, all I do is send them a photo of it and they answer!

Just downloaded this morning. So far its a great app,I havent run into any problems yet:)

You are walking along a path in the woods and you see some cool plant. You might want to know what it is. This app is your answer. I will make it short. This app literally tells you what your plant usually is and all you have to do is take a good picture of it. You can figure out how to take care of your plant and possible diseases and plant issues all by simply describing what it looks like. You probably think that this app is like a dictionary for defining your plant. I am here to tell you it is much better than just a book. Fantastic idea. I hope to see many things like this pop up through the App Store.

This app is amazing! Perfect for your garden or out on hikes.

I just downloaded this app, took a picture of my plant, gave a brief history, and got an immediate response. Fabulous.

Immediately identified two plants from a recent hike. All you need is a phone. Amazing!

Used to like this app, but it went way down hill. They used to have a real person get back to me with the exact plant name and specifics... and now they have some weird way of giving me a bunch of photos for me to determine what plant I have, none of which fits.
