Very good effort, interface isn't quite perfect yet but not far off. So far I failed to identify 1 tree, though I only tried with one angle. Either way this is now my first choice for identifying a plant, way faster and more reliable than the multiple choice question identification tools, and definitely more reliable than Google reverse image search. Don't know how it compares with similar apps but it's polished enough that I don't feel the need to try other ones yet

Paid for premium a couple of days ago. For 2 days this worked, though the map feature that is a big part of it is very frustrating. After each zoom or movement you need to wait for it to update, during which time no further gestures are accepted. Can't describe how irksome that is. Now my premium features have stopped working altogether, and am having to watch an ad for every 3 snaps... EXCEPT that isn't working either. I keep watching ads again and again but still can't actually take any snaps

Awful app. Has failed to identify a single plant that I've tried with it, even plants that still have their garden centre ID tags on. Doesn't seem to use the locale properly, so you get suggestions from other parts of the world that might look something similar, but clearly aren't indigenous to the country or region. Adverts every other click. Maybe try getting the app to work better on a trial time period, before trying to get people to upgrade? Anyway... woeful, useless and uninstalling.
