Latest reviews of Wolfram Plants Reference App app for iPhone and iPad
Only has selective information and if you search for anything it prompts an error message. Save your money and google
This app is not easily navigable. You cant really explore.
I love Wolfram Alpha so when they came out with a plant app I bit. What a waste of memory. It lists only a few species and you have to keep retuning the name to get the info. Very lame.
If you have Wolframealpha, this app will be totally a waste of money. It simply based on the same computing engine.
I am not a plant expert but I know there is probably thousands of species of plants this app doesnt even touch a hundred. I couldnt even find the aloe plant. I agree with the other reviews not enough info for $2.99. I will not delete this app because it does supply some information on a few of the plants that I want to get for my home but since Im not really a plant person I will not find another plant app
