1. 5/5Good tool

   I've been using the Plant Guru app for a few weeks now, and it’s truly impressive! It accurately identifies a wide range of plants within seconds, has so many care tools, and offers so a lot of useful information in its blog! These posts cover everything from plant care tips to the latest gardening trends, making it a valuable resource for both novice and experienced gardeners. I also like videos, as it isn’t always clear from the text what I need to do, and videos are really useful. The app has a bunch of care tools, such as Water Calculator, Pot Meter, Light meter, Health Check, My Expenses, and so on, and it’s much easier to care for my garden with them. You can also create optimal growing conditions even for the most demanding plant with the app’s reminders for watering, fertilizing, and repotting. It’s also great to track the growth of your green pets with the Care Diary. It records every care action you take, Health Check results, and you can also add your own notes and photos to it. This app has everything you may need for easy and effective plant care, a must-have for every plant parent!

2. 5/5Great for gardeners

   I tried a lot of apps and Plant Guru is my definite fav. All apps I tried identify plants quite good but this one has many additional features that make my life easier. I have a big garden and my main purpose was to find an app to identify weeds and learn how to eliminate them, but Plant Guru has much more than that. It allows me to track my expenses on plants, fertilizers, and pesticides. It’s really useful,especially in spring when I need to buy a lot of things to prepare for the active growing season. Very useful, as I can now estimate my fall spendings so it won’t be so frustrating. I also tried the health check feature, and the result was very detailed and accurate. I already have some experience in treating plants but it was interesting to know some prevention methods. I also tried to attract beneficial insects to my garden as it’s not only helpful for plants but also good for the environment.

3. 5/5Finally a great plant app

   It's easy to use, it's easy to move around in the app and find what you're looking for, It reminds me when it's time to feed certain plants and it can tell me what the problem is if the plant is having a problem. And so far from pictures, it's not gotten any plants wrong, it tells you when you need to fertilize and what kind of fertilizer to use if you measure your pot, it'll tell you exactly how much water you need to feed it too

4. 5/5Anton

   I have so many plants that i often forget about when it’s time to water, rotate, or fertilize them… I used to write these things down in my notebook, but this is just too overwhelming and didn’t help me at all. I thought i was the worst plant mom until this app came into my life. This is perfect for busy people like me because it reminds you about watering, misting, rotating, etc with a notification! Love it.

5. 1/5Awful plant app

   I paid the yearly fee to try this app. This app is awful. It did not have my drift roses (or knockout roses) and I did enter it by their scientific name. These are very common in SE US. I also took a picture 10 times of my roses with a white powdery residue - it kept saying that no plant was present. After spending an hour with this app, I googled white powdery residue on roses to find out it was a fungus and it told how to take care of it in seconds - not an hour with no results. As to how much to water and how to care for a plant, that is easy to google as well. It is not worth $35 to have an app tell me how much water to give to a plant. I am very disappointed and I hope I save someone else the $35.
