## Review summary

Plant Album is praised for its photo-rich, comprehensive plant cataloging, ability to track care and locations, support for multiple gardens, reminders, and a one-time purchase. It also stands out for letting users build a custom database without depending on a built-in plant database, plus decent cross-device syncing via import/export. Common drawbacks include crashes during data entry, heavy manual data-entry requirements, inability to move a plant to multiple gardens without duplicating logs, limited field customization, and the absence of mapping features and ongoing updates.

### Pros

- Comprehensive plant cataloging with photos, care notes, and location data.
- Supports multiple gardens/locations for flexible organization.
- Reminders and schedules for watering and care.
- Import/export features and cross-device syncing (iPhone/iPad) with a one-time purchase.
- Allows a custom, user-built database without relying on a built-in plant database.

### Cons

- Stability issues: app crashes when adding information for plants.
- Heavy manual data-entry without built-in plant references or easy external data lookup.
- Cannot assign a plant to multiple gardens without duplicating logs.
- Limited field customization: no dropdowns or renamable fields, and missing desirable data fields.
- Missing mapping feature and concerns about ongoing updates.
