I tested Plant Identification Apps so you don't have to!

I tested the top 7 Plant ID apps by running 234 different images through them and recording the results. I will share my findings with you here.

As I stated in the video as impressive as these plant ID apps are, they should not be used to determine whether a plant is safe to eat, or something similar. Do your own research, and don't forage plants in the wild unless you are competent and have been trained.
