I tried this app for a few days, but decided to cancel (before the deadline). This was two months ago. I contacted them about being charged. I stated clearly that I cancelled before the deadline. I didn't get a reply until contacting them a second time. I received a lot of information on how to take pictures, est. I contacted American Express. They said contact the app people directly. Now I'm told to contact Google Play who is in charge of the app. I've been charged twice now. Refund now!

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.

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.
