Old Farmer's Almanac Planner App Reviews

I bought this app because i was impressed with the PC version. The ipad app is NOT WORTH THE MONEY. This app has a mind of its own. Single selection does not always work. Sometimes you cannot select anything. Multiple selection most of the time does not work and if you are not careful you will end up with a totally messed plan. I cannot delete a plan. The function is there but does not work. You cannot place text where you wanted. The app always tries to align it with the grid somehow. Could not find a way to disable this. Do not try to resize a text box. You may not be able to select it again. More to come .......

Terrible app, crashes constantly. Moves things around, wigs out of square foot garden mode, over all terrible.

I accidentally purchased this app when I was on a gung-ho spree of downloading gardening apps to help me (a total beginner) start a veggie garden. This app is useful and helpful, but basic. It by NO means worth $9 as most of the info in the app can be found for FREE online. I have serious buyers remorse and would not recommend anyone dish out any money to buy this app. :(

App constantly crashing and alters the positioning of previous garden layout.

This app is the most complicated for a basic garden designing app. It is hard to use, frustrating and the support is not at all focused on the questions. Very expensive for learning about the White House Garden not my own or your garden! Big waste of time and money

This app is worthless. Nothing works as the directions show. It is too hard to enter e plants that I want to put in my garden. I wasted $7.99 on this crap!!!!

Not at all user friendly. Square foot gardening plant counts are incorrect for some plants. Difficult to select and drag plots. Would switch between layers. Would not save selected plants for my garden. Could not delete a garden I started but wanted to remove. Not worth the money - very disappointed.

This App is terrible. It isnt the least bit intuitive; and its interface is extraordinarily cumbersome. Teach me to purchase an app without reading the reviews!

I thought this app would help with garden planning. False. Its basically a pretty app where you can draw your own plants. Dont buy it. There are much better helps out there.

This was helpful in making sure I gave each plant the proper amount of root space; its something that I tend to skimp on. I like the app but some of the features are hard to use, even with the manuals guidance. The app just doesnt work as smoothly as the guide suggests. Some items seemed to be unable to be manipulated after creating them. The delete button on the garden overview panel does not actually work. It would be nice to get rid of old/waylaid plans. Id also like to be able to rename plans if I change my mind about the original name. Id also like to see other seed catalogs included, granted they cooperate, like Sow True Seed. I do like how the newsletter gives me a reminder of what planting/seeding phase the plants in my plans are currently in. Please consider changing the issues, it would make the app so much more wonderful

Complicated set-up. Not at all user-friendly. Very poor help instructions. Sorry that I purchased it.

Overall a decent app. I found it easy to get started and to add plants. Some of the functions to modify the added plants are a little different but once you get used to using them it works well. One update that I would suggest is being able to filter the plants based on zones.

This is not worth $7.99! You can find better tips on Google for free.

After downloading the app I am unable to login in - the login screen just doesnt populate fields?? The help option does not work either. There is no way to send an email for help. The app is worthless if you want to connect to your plans from your account. Im trying to figure out how to get a refund.

Cannot find the "login" or "logout" button. I was told to find the home screen to see what version I have . . . Nope, couldnt find it either. Was also told they are aware of an issue(s) with the iPhone 6 and it will be 7-10 days "depending on how long it takes Apple to review it." I have never written a review, but I feel like I should mention something about what has happened to me. This is a $7.00 app . . . I was hoping they would have at least offered a refund of all or part of my money . . . Instead, I am having to wait for them; or Apple, to get this fixed and have been asked for my patience. However, I will say the girl who sent the email has been cordial. Give some thought before purchasing this. Im already knuckle deep in this one, so its to late to back out now.

Dont waste your money, this app is useless. Too simple. If the developers care, make a real garden planner and log, one that lets you have access to your own library of seeds, plant dates, photos, logs. This is a waste of time. Tell me how this has any use to me, you cant because it doesnt do a thing but waste time.

This app crashes frequently and doesnt flow well.

All my previously entered information for the garden is never saved for when I log in the next time, requiring me to re-enter it every time. It often crashes in the middle of using it. Fix the bugs BEFORE charging an outrageous amount.

Dont bother with the app!

That was the worst purchase I have made through the App Store.......ever. The app may have been developed by either a really old person, or a younger school age child. Im sure I could have shopped around and found a free app. However, I paid for the reliable name and got burned bad.
