I found this app very appropriate for beginner gardeners seeking pollinator friendly plants. I think being able to chose between type of pollinator to attract, soil, sun, color, etc is a great feature. A good app to recommend to gardeners and pollinator enthusiasts

I love the concept of this app and most of its functionality, but it could be MUCH better. PLEASE re-design the app so that we can enlarge the planting thumbnails. We need to have a close-up view of the plantings. Also, it would be great if we could click on the plant name to access specific information about the plant.

I loaded right in. It's working exactly as advertising so I'm assuming people might want to clear their caches. So far so good!

I was disappointed at the very limited list of plants listed for butterfly nectar plants. Only 19 plants were listed. There are much better butterfly gardening sites which will help you much more.

Pollinators are very important. Pity this app is does not have much information, is ugly and difficult to use.

Tried this app a while ago but it never downloaded anything. Contacted support and they said to load the new version. Still doesn't work. All I get is a blank page that says wait ...but nothing ever happens. Very disappointed...sounds like a great app if it actually would work. :(

The navigation and simplicity of this app is much better than other comparable apps making it really functional and useful in knowing what plants in your region will attract pollinators. The integration with the free Catch note app is especially useful and is worth the extra time to sign up as it really complements the use of Bee Smart. Would like to see maybe an option to learn more about the main pollinators with maybe a link to Wikipedia or a link to a database or RSS feed showing the status or current environmental threats to the pollinators like the current bee crisis. Overall a great app.

This app is great because it tells you what plants are native to your zip code and they bring pollinators to your garden. Also the filter tool is an awesome way to find exactly the kind of earth friendly plant your looking for!

Functional, but a number of quirks. On my Samsung Galaxy S7, many of the menus are not rendered properly and fall behind the main interface. The ecoregion puts me in Alaska instead of Colorado, and the app launches multiple windows as I navigate through the menus.
