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!

There’s need for a great app to plan and manage your garden but imo this isn’t it.

First, an iPhone screen is too small to design and manage a property on. Potentially having an iPad version would help but it likely also needs a web-based login so you can work on a full screen.

Second, despite a button to upload my own floor plan, I did not find a way to do this successfully. That button just generated another map based on the Google Maps screenshot. The problem with the Google Maps screenshot is it’s dated and before my major renovation. So nothing applies.

Next, even if I went with the “automatically generated” layouts, I didn’t see a way to edit and remove or adjust the plants it suggested. Maybe I gave up too quickly but that just means the UI isn’t intuitive enough.

It’s too game-ified. I’m not looking to win badges or compete against other players. That’s what games are for. I’m looking to design and manage the landscaping of my properties.

Wishing you guys luck in making this an even better app in the future. It’s a great idea. 💡

I do have the paid-for version. Which means I should have everything unlocked, accessible, and at the best speeds possible. With that in mind I struggle with the minutes long lag time, how often it freezes up and crashes, the fact that it shows a completely different address than where I live but will not allow me to change or correct it. Plus, the filters aren't entirely accurate because if I say I have a full sun area, it is offering me plants that would fry under this much sunlight.
