Should have read the reviews first. Charged for a full year after cancelling the first day of the 7 day free period. Don'y sign up unless you want to go through the hassle of getting a refund when you never should have been charged in the first place.

★★★★ Abraham Kolako 6/22/2026 v1.105
I need a refund to this app as it was deleted from my phone. Haven't being using it.
★★★★ L&G Conyers 6/21/2026
Warning: Do not install and subscribe. While in the trial period, I decided to unsubscribed which directs you to the Goggle Subscription. This app is nowhere to be found to unsubscribe while in trial.
★★★★ Dennis Grosse 6/20/2026 v1.106
This app offers 7 day free trial,they just charged me 10 minutes later. Then Google wouldn't refund me!
★★★★ Charles Cole 6/18/2026 v1.107
doesn't work and can't find how to cancel subscription
★★★★ ktymouse 6/17/2026
Horrible! I used the app once, followed its advice, and the plant looks worse than before. Worse yet, I cancelled the app within the trial period and was charged anyway! Now I can't get ahold of anyone to refund the charge! What a pack of thieves!
★★★★ C Harrald 6/17/2026 v1.102
never can get the right answer
★★★★ Samba Gee 6/17/2026 v1.107

★★★★ Tina Tran 6/9/2026 v1.106

★★★★ Anna Francis 6/6/2026
horrible i want to cancel the subscription and I cant seem to do it. they are charging $6.99 weekly. This is a rip off!!!
★★★★ Wendy Sims 6/5/2026
I downloaded the 7 day free trial and was charged $ 43.67 and don't know how to get a refund
★★★★ Gyromatical 6/4/2026
this app is the most condescending thing I've ever seen. It talks down on you like you are an imbecile. It's nothing but obnoxious animated splash screens everywhere
★★★★ Susan Janke 6/3/2026 v1.106
Very deceitful company, when offering a free trial in actuality it is included in a year's subscription without the option to cancel at the end of your trial, without being charged. Again no option to cancel and if you cancel you've already been charged a year subscription. Not a problem to cancel your subscription, however you've already been charged for a year's subscription. I do not want a subscription for a year. I do not want to be charged a year subscription that I did not agree to.
★★★★ Sue Fleischmann 6/2/2026 v1.106
this program does not allow you to contact anyone for help.
★★★★ E T 6/2/2026 v1.106
It is NOT FREE. And you need to subscribe first, then you get 1 week free. There is not a free option with some premium features (like a no ads version) like the developer mentioned in another reply. I am not giving my card's details for an app that should be free.
★★★★ Lynda Hipwood 6/1/2026
only free for 7 days
★★★★ Jerry Leeman 6/1/2026
don't subscribe to free trial tells you to go to Google Play to cancel and lo n behold no way to cancel

★★★★ Amelia Cash 5/25/2026
I only have three plants and one of them wasn't even on the app 🫠 off to look for a different plant app I think!
★★★★ Dee Jay 5/21/2026 v1.106

★★★★ Kathy Costa 5/17/2026 v1.106

★★★★★ Nicole 7/1/2026
unable to undo a task or change the date a task was completed without deleting the plant
★★★★★ Aiva Light 6/23/2026 v1.107
Too much intro before I get info what I need. it's really annoying!
★★★★★ Klemen Perko 6/22/2026 v1.107
watering schedule adaptation to local weather is very poor if existant at all.
★★★★★ C R Butcher 6/18/2026 v1.106
Not free
★★★★★ THE WITCH 6/5/2026

★★★★★ Judy Emmrich 6/4/2026 v1.106
how do I cancel free subscription
★★★★★ Peter Dolman 6/4/2026 v1.106
Spend 5 minutes onboarding with useless animations and asking some random psychology questions. I just wanted to know why my plants dying.
★★★★★ Christina Cameron 5/31/2026 v1.106
let's fix the intro to the download. instead of asking where your plants are "mostly", why not have a log in feature to your account? and also, why can't we choose both indoor and outdoor at the beginning? logged back in after getting new phone, everything I had built is gone. and the app doesn't even have an option for an account. Just membership options.
★★★★★ Kristin Schlomach 5/29/2026
This app used to be WONDERFUL for helping me diagnose my plants. Now it doesnt matter what the plant looks like itll just say "it looks healthy" im not paying for a watering calendar im paying for you to help me diagnose my plants!
★★★★★ Ella Prokopy 5/26/2026
I am generous with the two stars rating. I'm very disappointed. Subscribed for a year regret almost instantly. I thought that when you take a picture, it gives you specific advice for the specific plan you've taken a picture of. as well as some tips or home remedies as advertised. Nothing!!!Just tells you either plan is sick due to ageing, but clearly, my plant is sick, or your plant looks healthy even clearly,the plant is not. I've taken several pictures from different angles, the same result.
★★★★★ June Henderson 5/22/2026 v1.106
it was not given facts regarding my plants so I have no use for it please cancel the subscription.
★★★★★ Brett “Osobrett” ABA-D 5/19/2026 v1.106
I tried the free version and added a bunch of plants. I thought the app was great but there really needs to be a way to sign in because I got a new phone and when I loaded the app up I realized I lost everything.
