2 ★ Great idea, but it failed in 4 of 4 identifications. I followed the instructions impeccably. When it missed on a purple oxalis, I tried it on a more common post oak, a beautyberry, and something else easy. It showed answers that didn't look at all like what I snapped. I'll try again someday when the database is fuller and algorithms are improved.
3 ★ It's a great idea for an app. I'm not convinced that it identifies things correctly, though. Also there is some kind of bug in the app that prevents my phone from sleeping and keeps the app open and running. Pulled my phone out of my pocket a couple hours after snapping a photo of a plant, and the app was still running, my battery almost dead, and my phone extremely hot.
1 ★ After a year, it has yet to ever correctly identify a plant for me. So I updated the software and gave it one more try. This time it kept crashing while trying to start a force product survey. Good intentions but very poor execution of that was a product satisfaction pole. When I figured out how to bypass the crashing survey, it failed to identify a plant once again. Uninstalled. Too bad, I was hoping for a plant version of the Merlin app for birders.
1 ★ I don't know where to start. Well first if all the app hardly works. Sometimes it works, other times it just freezes up, and then the app shuts off. When I have a clear picture of a flower, it always says re take, and then freezes up. When it doesn't freeze up, when I'm in the middle of taking pictures of flowers to ID, multiple ads just pop up and start playing. When I lead the ads out, the app shuts completely down.
2 ★ I hadn't used this app for a while but recently started to again. The overall app experience has degraded quite a bit imo. I used to get correct results 90% of the time, but now it's more of a 40% chance it will be correct. I used to be able to simply "correct" the identification if it was wrong by tapping on the correct plant, but now it's much more complicated. Snaps no longer automatically save and the process to save them is pretty annoying.
2 ★ Very dissapointed. So many ads and buying options on the screen that very little plant ID info is visible. More a plant shopping app. Wasnt able to find a way to create a personal library of plants searched for reference, etc. Very limited pictures of plant to use as comparison or to see it in other stages. App has been useless to me. I work at a public garden and am constantly ask to identify plants. Maybe i'm using it wrong. But then it should be more intuitive. Switched back to Picture This.
1 ★ It has trouble identifying even the most common house plants correctly. I scanned each plant more than 3 times.... every scan produced a different result and not once was it even correct. I decided to test a few plants that still had tags from the store so I knew exactly what they should be... I watched all the tutorials on "how to take the photo" still wildly different results every time you scan. Waste of time app!
2 ★ It's been a couple of years since I have used Plantsnap. I started using the app again. Not very happy with the experience lately. The plants I have taken pictures of have not identified correctly. I used to be able to save the photo for future reference on this app, now not at all. I've even considered deleting this app and searching for another plant app. I'm hoping Plantsnap can fix/tweek some issues on the app. I really liked it before and really don't want to change.
2 ★ Not very user-friendly and poorly designed. I always seem to be hitting the wrong buttons as it's not very intuitive. It tells me I'm out of snaps before I've used even half of my quota. As for identifying plants, that part is pretty good. It is prone to error messages and glitches, however. I would therefore be very reluctant to try the paid version.
2 ★ I appreciate the reply. I have gone through the instruction video and the demo videos. I have framed my photos per the instructions. I took photos per all of the above. It still comes back with several guesses. I take more photos. Some of the results are the same as the first photo, but the app adds a couple other choices. It seems that this app STILL does a lot of guessing. Thanks anyway. P.S. Almost daily updating?
5 ★ This app does a truly amazing job of identifying plants with great accuracy. I showed it to a landscaper and even he was blown away (then he promptly downloaded the app himself). There are, however, some features I would really really like to see. I’ve listed them in order of relative difficulty for the app creators, going from easier to more difficult:1) Country of origin2) Native/non-native indication for my area. 3) If non-native, an indication of whether the plant is classified as invasive. This would be of great use to me as I try to establish an all-native landscape for my yard and the woods behind my home. But please know that this app as it is has already made that project so much easier. Thank you!
4 ★ Works great and as expected for a free app. Very easy to use. I like that you can take a photo of the plant or flower with the actual app, or load a picture from your phone's picture gallery for identification. Sometimes can't seem to find the correct flower or plant, but most times I can. The only downside is that some plants and flowers seem to be incorrectly identified and added to the app's photo lineup of a plant making a correct identification tricky.
3 ★ Hit or miss After several months, it's really hit or miss with identification ~50% but I'm not counting. I've tested unknown and known with many snaps. Many time helpful most times not. Not 100% confident on the results returned. I spend a lot of time comparing and reading and giving up. But when it does it hit (and it does) the info is spot on and saving the snap with info is nice. I don't care for the social part get the id of plants right first. I like the map of other "snaps".
5 ★ Awesome app! Very informative and accurate most of the time. Make sure you take good photos, the closer you get to the detail of leaves and such the better. But not so close as to only see a small portion of the plant. Lol. A good picture would be a leaf, or flower head and leaf. If a leaf has three lobes, then try to get as close to showing all three lobes. Pics too far away could give false results. The ads are bearable :-)
3 ★ Effective but unstable. I'm able to identify a lot of plants with a combination of this app and a little googling. It's much better at searching than any other options I've found. However, it crashes a lot, particularly when trying to upload an image for identification. Hopefully they will work out the bugs.
