## Review summary

Users appreciate the Grow Garden App for its useful garden organization, calendar maintenance reminders, and attractive interface. However, many report serious issues including data loss after updates, frequent crashes particularly with photos, and an incomplete plant database. Regional customization and measurement unit options are lacking, along with detailed features like notifications and planting specifics. Despite these drawbacks, the app's core concept and responsiveness of developers to bug reports receive praise.

### Pros

- Beautiful and intuitive user interface.
- Allows creation of multiple patches/beds with plants and photos.
- Includes a calendar or actions feature to remind users of maintenance tasks.
- Helpful for specific hobbies like bonsai and general garden planning.

### Cons

- Data loss after app updates or crashes, causing users to lose all added plants and actions.
- Limited and incomplete plant database, even in paid versions, missing common plants like hostas and begonias.
- Frequent app crashes, especially when handling photos or changing phone orientation.
- Lack of regional customization, such as seasonal tips for southern hemisphere or option to choose metric/imperial units.
- Missing desired features like detailed notifications/alarms for tasks, more detailed planting info, and customizable plant categories.
