## Review summary

Sow offers a powerful drag-and-drop garden planner with a built-in plant ID and a broad all-in-one toolset for planning, tracking weather, care tasks, and marketplace purchases. Users praise the mobile-friendly workflow and ability to save/present designs. However, repeatedly reported issues include stability problems (crashes and lag), inconsistent AI outputs that can be nonsensical or ignore existing plantings, and data accuracy concerns (address display and filter accuracy), which constrain reliability for regular use.

### Pros

- Intuitive drag-and-drop planner that lets you place and rearrange plants to visualize layouts
- Plant ID feature that accurately identifies plants in the real world
- Comprehensive all-in-one toolkit (planner, weather and rainfall tracking, seed starting, plant tasks, and marketplace)
- Mobile-friendly design that saves ideas and supports presenting designs to clients

### Cons

- Frequent stability issues: crashes on launch or after updates, plus noticeable lag while designing
- AI features produce inconsistent or nonsensical results (e.g., random outputs and ignoring existing plantings)
- Data accuracy problems: wrong address display and inaccurate plant filters
