I haven't had the app long, but as soon as I finished my three tree test, I was read to sign up for my first year. And, I did! As I complete each tree's spring work, into the app it goes. And, it's easy to add my own oddball species to the extensive database. The information about each species is, likewise, extensive. And, I keep learning more about the app's options. In short, I love the app. It's incredibly helpful in organizing all that I do with my bonsai.
Like the app. Easy to use, although I live in the southern hemisphere, and the upcoming reminders have the incorrect season details. Can not find any way to change that even though I have changed it in settings. Add on, Thanks to the great team, it is cured. For Southern Hemisphere set that in options BEFORE putting your trees in. Great app. Thanks
The app has a lot of potential but is all over the place with its scheduling. I added all my trees last week and, for interest, added one of my Bougainvilleas again today to see if the app is consistent, but it wasn't at all. The dates were completely different for the exact same plant. Even worse, the watering schedule doesn't change no matter what species of tree you put in.
Personally I find it a bit basic and rushed. There are so many aspects of the app that many other plant apps can also do. I also find it to be odd in the timing of its release, almost to try and get out there "first". It's very rudimentary and not really an app I think I'll use. Not much that sets its apart from other notification based apps to be honest. Just my opinion though
Uninstalled the very first morning because the notifications are unswipeable. I haven't found any settings to change it. I also saw the very limited library and the paywall and knew I would only ever truly benefit from the reminders and having a list of my trees, both things that can be easily done without the app. I do not recommend it to anyone, beginner or professional. It's much more convenient to just use the phone's notes and alarms. Google has care info and guides. The app doesn't.
