Questions

Frequently asked

Everything you need to know about WhatPlant.

How accurate is WhatPlant’s identification?
WhatPlant achieves over 98% accuracy on common houseplants and outdoor species. The model is trained on a diverse dataset and continually improved. If we’re uncertain, the app shows you the top candidates and asks for an extra photo.
Does WhatPlant work offline?
Identification and disease scanning require an internet connection because they run on our AI servers. Your saved plant collection, care schedule, and reminders work fully offline.
Can WhatPlant diagnose plant diseases?
Yes. Take a photo of the affected leaf or stem and WhatPlant identifies common issues — root rot, leaf scorch, spider mites, powdery mildew, nutrient deficiencies, and more — with a step-by-step treatment plan.
Is WhatPlant free to use?
WhatPlant is free to download and comes with a 3-day free trial of all premium features. After the trial, premium is $4.99/week or $29.99/year (best value). Cancel anytime from your App Store account.
Does WhatPlant work for outdoor plants and wildflowers?
Absolutely. WhatPlant identifies indoor houseplants, garden plants, wildflowers, succulents, herbs, and trees. The care guides adjust based on whether the plant is indoor, outdoor, or seasonal.
