1. 4/5Wish it auto-saved designs

   I just started playing around with this app today and so far I like it a lot compared to what else is on the market. I mostly use the “editor” function to place plants where I want them. I have not used the AI functionality yet. However there are a couple of very important changes I’d love to see addressed for me to stay a subscriber: 1. Many of the plant images are not full plants, just a snippet of the plant’s flowers or a cluster of branches. This makes it really hard to visualize the actual size and shape of a plant. I have just been substituting other varieties in this case but it’s really annoying. 2. I wish the editor auto-saved your design. Today I spent an hour on one design, got a phone call and went back to it after only to find it had not saved my progress. All my other editing apps (like Canva, etc) auto-save works so this doesn’t happen.

2. 5/5All in One Design & plant care App! Game changer!

   This app is everything. Not only does it allow a user to drag and drop plants (from an extensive selection including hybrids & nativars)- it also tracks rainfall (including 1 weeks worth), overall weather, has a seed starting tracker, a plant ID tool, and gives you plants tasks! It’s literally 6+ apps in one! And the price point is well worth it. It’s still very new and already is exceeding expectations. The developers are also very responsive to any feedback and are promptly making improvements and changes. This is going to be THE main plant designer tool for the future once others discovers it. I do designs for clients , as well as maintain a fairly large garden myself . I’m also a mother to 2 boys & a blue heeler- and being able to design easily from my phone is a must, while also keeping tracking of my own garden layout and tasks is incredible. The designs also allow you to download a pdf packet which shows a bloom calendar , and plant care guide for clients ! Absolutely incredible ! 10/10

3. 5/5Good

   As a first-time homeowner, this app has been a lifesaver. I snapped a picture of a mystery plant in my yard and the Plant ID got it right instantly. I used the drag-and-drop planner to design my flower beds with real-scale layout and it honestly looks like I hired a professional landscaper. The built-in marketplace helped me find plants at better prices than local shops. Such a powerful tool, especially since it is free.

4. 2/5Limited and Disappointing

   Purchased with very high hopes and am left frustrated and disappointed. Many plant pictures are either cutoff or distorted. The AI ignores accurate size and scale. The plant editor is limited to 1 dimension. The My Plan is only for fruits, vegetables and flowers. When uploading photos, you can crop and zoom but you cannot adjust the angle, dimension or rotate. Furthermore, it is very difficult to accurately edit plants and objects from a photo, such as removing existing plants from an area. The plant details lack valuable information, such as bloom times. The map editor wants a straight over the top picture but loads a satellite view that is very much angled and basically useless. In the plant editor, there needs to be a scale function instead of manually adjusting every plant. When multiple plants and objects are added, it is very difficult to select the right plant. The app has potential but I wouldn’t recommend for anything more than a smaller, basic shaped design.

5. 1/5No way to change your mind

   I just started the process of maybe getting the app and it said “in app purchases” but doesn’t say how much. I went through the download process to find out more info and made me make an account just to see what it costs. I got to the screen where you need to agree for a 7 day free trial but it automatically starts charging you unless you cancel. I never use apps that do that. The only option to back out of the purchase/trial at that point seemed to be the “x” button in the upper right. When I clicked it, it then sent me to a screen congratulating me for signing up for my trial! What?! I did not agree with anything. I was changing my mind and going to delete the app. I hate devious companies like this! Please do better and don’t force curious people into “free trials” when they just want to know how much it costs! I better not get automatic charges one week from now! I may have bought this… but not now. So annoying!
