Click & Grow Official Hack 1.1.2 + Redeem Codes

What I was hoping this app would do:

tell me not just about the seedlings but what conditions it would need once I plant it in my garden. But it doesn’t. Just tells me mostly generic or limited info.

Make troubleshooting easier-I have never gardened before and this misses an opportunity to help me learn about common problems I might encounter with each plant type.

Other frustrations:

why have a water icon if it doesn’t tell you when water is needed?

Its push notifications don’t get through IOS well so I only got notifications for 1 plant out of 8.

This company needs to redesign its app from the ground up or at least fire its designer and hire someone else. I have Four Smart Garden 9's and the amount of work it takes to clear out existing plants and input new ones is ridiculous. You have to individually rate every plant. Can't delete a garden if it has plants in it (that would have been the easy fix)

Signs me out and refuses to sign me back in no matter how many times I change the password on the website it says it is wrong. Too many glitches. I do love the garden though.

I can’t for the life of me understand why I need an account to use this app, unless it’s just so the company can collect some customer data. This goes double for signing in with a facebook ID. But all that is regrettably par for the course today.

Since they *are* insisting I have an account, they could at least give me forum access from the app.

If you add your own seeds, you don’t get to give a latin name for it. If they would allow that, it would be fairly simple to give useful tips as well.

You also can’t replace the generic picture with something that’s more specific to the plant you’re trying to grow.

Encouraging me to keep a log of the plants, is a really good thing, and probably the only use of this app I should expect to get. I think three stars are pretty generous, but it’s saturday, so I’m in a good mood.

Update: you have to log in every single time you open the app? Well, it’s no better than a browser bookmark then, probably a lot worse.

Update2: you don’t actually have to log in *every* time, just often. However, it seems to keep all information in “the cloud.” For what it does, Notes is really more useful.

Unable to delete a garden that is no longer in use.

Have a smart grow 9, for the price I wish it offered slightly more— but I find using the app engaging and watching the plants grow deeply satisfying. Love that it tracks the plant lifecycle for me, it keeps me engaged with facts, and that I can schedule convenient times for our grow lamp. I wish it tracked water levels because let’s face it, I bought this system and not a more complicated hydroponic one because I’m a plant murderer. I REALLY wish the plant catalogue had a wish list feature! Very easy to implement, would justify the app usage, and probably lead to profits. What’s not to love? I’d like to use it to organize future plantings.

The ap has some potential, at the moment it’s pretty basic.

I like the note section, but I’d suggest adding check boxes for dates for things like planted, sprouts, outgrew dome, flower, bud, fruits, harvest —- not only would it be simpler than adding notes and date and tracking progress for the end user; but that information could be great feedback to the company on average growth rates.

Bring being able to at photos would be nice to (again for the user and the company)

My only current disappointment is how it displays your plants. When you add the new you get a screen than mimics the layout of your click and grow planter. But then once it’s in the app it’s a list—- so if you have say 5 tomatoes and 4 peppers it is a bit of a jigsaw memory game to figure out in the “list” which plant that is in your planter

Again- lots of potential... hope they continue to expand and enhance

Also a little buggy. It does have some interesting tidbits of info here and there, so it’s not useLESS, just not especially necessary. I assumed there’d be a way to control the planter from your phone, but even “smart gardening” is largely analog it seems. (Not complaining - who needs to digitize plants?)

One thing I wish they’d add is the option to add photos. I try to take a zoomed-in photo every day to track the germination progress but I have nowhere to upload them.

A note to the developer... Recommendations :: it would be nice to add an option to name your own plant since you now offer experimental pods. This way this app would be helpful to record notes on progress. A photo of the added pod isn’t necessary. Just having the option to name it would be helpful.

Pros-
1.) the ability to record personal notes on growth.
2.) plant information & tips

Cons-
1.) not enough options to add a plant that is not listed. Reason: click and grow offers 50+ plants/herbs on their website but there’s only a handful of plants listed on the app. So it’s difficult to keep track of all your plants that are not listed.

3 stars because I love my click and grow smart garden 9. Just wish the app had more features. Hoping to see improvement this year! 🙂

I am proud to be the first person to write a review for this life changing app. From the Smartpot to the SHG to the Revolutionary SG9 and SG3 and I cannot forget the Wall Farms and the new Plant Shelf (and I can’t wait for the release of the SG21 ) Click and Grow is “Growing” tremendously as a company and I'm sure one day no one will know what it is to be starving because of this company! Thank You Mattias Lepp for you have truly changed my life!
