IScape: Landscape Design for Negative User Reviews
✓ It could be great.....I’m an Arborist and Gardener, I have my own company and was really excited when I came across this product. I’ve been looking for a package that I can use to take photos to then reimagine, turning spaces into new sights and so on. It’s just not workable. For example, adding boundary points for lawns just isn’t stable enough. It’s so clunky. You can’t take decent landscape photos of gardens because if you try and add fences for example, the fence cannot be properly scaled to your photo in terms of size to perspective. You need to be able to set horizon and vanishing points within the photo for your library objects otherwise its useless and looks rubbish. The features are there, they just don’t work when you need them to, which is most of the time, and for £20 per month you have to be joking!!! Procreate is better despite it being a product for graphics. Sort all these problems out, let me know, let me test them as I have been a software tester in a previous life, and you may have a returning customer.... Sorry guys, this is a fail for me....Version: 4.13.3
✓ Not worth itNot what I was looking for at all. You have to buy almost everything. Don’t waste your time.Version: 4.13.1
✓ Not goodYou might have 20 pictures to choose from but the first one I used is the only 1 I get to use everytime I click on a different image I get the same one I have used ,, not impressed.Version: 1.0
✓ Free is only good for shrubsNot much of a demo..Version: 4.13.8
✓ App No Longer OpensI’ve only had this app for a little over a week and when I first bought it I loved it however for a few days now (I’m guessing since the update 6 days ago) it will open and stay on the loading screen indefinitely. I want to say that one time it did finally open but was still essentially unusable because the loading times in the app were just as bad. I bought this to work on proposals for work and with deadlines looming I’m starting to regret buying this because I can’t open it to work on my projects..Version: 4.13.9
✓ Nothing like the videoUnusable, fidgety, kindof just plain dumb app. You can't produce anything serious with this.Version: 4.18.0
✓ Dont botherOnly free thing is to upload your own picture. Cant move a muscle unless you pay..Version: 4.13.8
✓ Expensive AppIf you’re looking for ideas this may give you what you want, but it’s not cheap. You can’t view anything without paying..Version: 4.13.1
✓ Keeps crashingI only just downloaded the free version and I can't even get it to load a plant before it crashes. I love the idea and would have bought the paid version but I can't even get the free one to work..Version: 2.5.4
✓ Just simply the worst app I have ever downloadedEnough said really. Just terrible, couldn’t even edit a basic photo of my garden.Version: 4.13.8
✓ Performance issuesI really like the idea of this app but it’s very frustrating due to the performance. When trying to do things like free draw areas for grass it keeps getting a delay, even when trying to select items in the menu, it takes a while to catch up so you end up clicking to much or constantly waiting..Version: 3.3.9
✓ Rip offSeriously 39$ for one wk not likely.Version: 4.18.0
✓ Doesn’t workIt’s hangs and doesn’t work. Too expensive to buy..Version: 4.13.8
✓ $20/month or $200/year!I’m so disappointed, I had high hopes for this but as usual I watched the video & got sucked in. After going through the login process & giving my email, taking a few pictures of my backyard, I searched the free area to add (of course) the beautiful pictures I saw in the video. There is minimal “free” to choose from amongst 3 categories of trees, flowers, & furniture/arbors with about 6-10 pictures in each. If you want different flowers, more trees, different furniture, waterfalls, pools, edging, grass, stone etc... you’ll have to hand over $20 a month ($10 the first month) or ready for it.... $200 a year (or $100 the first year & $200 after that). For a furloughed pilot during COVID, we’d love to be able to design & buy a few plants here & there when money allows but for $100+ a year we could buy a lot of plants with that instead =(.Version: 4.13.1
✓ Poor from a landscape gardeners point of viewYou'll see why if you waste time downloading this..Version: 2.5.3
✓ Not for Pros as DescribedI think this could be a fun app if you own an iPad and want to play around with a project for your home, but it’s a waste of time if you’re a pro. I can’t believe no developer has seized the market for pros looking to do some light duty design on the iPad. If pro use wasn’t mentioned in the description (or it were free) I wouldn’t have given it a two star rating so if you’re a DIYer it may be a better experience for you then it was for me. Suggestions that would make this a much better experience drafting something up on the fly in front of a client in the field: allow markup within the app and the use of a finger or, even better, Apple Pencil. I would imagine that would be really easy to integrate into the app (but I’m not a developer). Secondly, give your paying clients an adequate plant database (without having to upload a bunch of photos, for approval, by myself) labeled by a common name and the botanical name with the search feature. The names are a mess. I searched for a Pieris japonica / andromeda as the first plant for my first ‘design’ with this app, and it wasn’t there. I think that’s a pretty darn common plant in high production in the majority of the US. If those changes are made I’d be happy to try a subscription again (I used the trial for a few days) and give an updated rating..Version: 4.3.3
✓ LOL $50 a month. You’ve got to be kidding me.LOL $50 a month. You’ve got to be kidding me. What an absolute joke..Version: 4.22.0
✓ Poor businessI bought the original version in Feb of 2017. The past few months it would not update. This morning I decided to look into it and figured out that I was screwed. I already felt ripped off when I bought the full version only to find that there was more to buy if you wanted everything. Now, I have nothing. One response to another review was that they offered a discount on the new app to previous owners (apparently we didn’t own anything). I could not find where I was ever given an offer for a discount. The proper thing would have been to grandfather in owners of the original app because they purchased the app before it was a subscription model. Very bad business in my opinion! Since my review the original app has been restored. I’m glad the developers made the decision to do the right thing..Version: 3.3.6
✓ Not as good as basic image editing softwareThis app is a bit of a joke. It has very basic image insertion with zero ability to manipulate the background image. There is minimal access to layers and the plant selections are scant. You can upload your own images but this is rudimentary as the background of uploads is not transparent so you have a square bush. It is also buggy and the undo stack gets corrupted often. I have signed up for an initial pro trial but I'm canceling the auto renew as soon as I finish this review. You are better off with a tablet version of Photoshop or even Linea sketch. Also, no 1 week trial for pro is lame. I can see why there is no trial as most people would probably never pay once they saw how little this app can do. Not worth the price at all..Version: 4.13.8
✓ Poor preview of appDownloaded the app to try, but could not get very far into the app before being asked to upgrade. Need to see more of the app before I buy. Only looking to do my own home, could be better value if you have more than one garden to do..Version: 4.7.0
✓ A total waste of time!!What’s the point of having a free app that doesn’t actually let you do anything unless you pay money?!! Honestly, just don’t waste your time people..Version: 4.13.1
✓ CrapFree version is crap. I am not paying 200 for a year or even just 30 to use for a month! I just want it for my own personal use. Just for two or three landscape projects. Would be nice if you made a less expensive option for personal use. Even add a few ads to make it less expensive..Version: 4.12.2
✓ Another supriseWell this really IS a pile of rubbish. Deleted after 15 minutes. It locks. Freezes. My phone was red hot within 5 minutes while the app just sat thinking about stuff. And then of course it’s really Ltd until you pay for it..Version: 4.13.8
✓ Expensive SubscriptionI wanted it to design a basic garden plan but all items seem to be subscription with expensive subscription..Version: 4.13.3
✓ Garden appThis app doesn't give you access to anything other than green grass. You have to pay for everything else!.Version: 2.1
✓ Fun to useThis is a great program for beginners or for home landscape designs. I was disappointed that you could not free rotate items to fit the design you could only flip from left to right. Being able to rotate would be a great added feature..Version: 4.5.0
✓ Why I give it 2 starsFor one there is no free version besides the trial where you can use products you have to subscribe, which is horrible. Besides that the app is on the right track except it’s extremely expensive for what it is. Essentially, you could just download any vector app and import your own images and do the same thing that this app does for fraction of the cost. The editing in this app isn’t advanced at all, It’s very simple. The only benefit this has is there’s a lot of products you could add besides that the app is nowhere worth the cost as you could simply do the work on many other free apps, there is no AI features that detect, move or delete backgrounds or corners or objects that other apps have. You can’t even tilt the the products you’d like to put in the project, it’s essentially a super basic resize crop function. If you have just a few items placed down, it’s very hard to select through them. There’s a long list of improvements and feature is needed before I would even consider paying $30 a year for this. If this app costed $10 a year I might buy it definitely not worth the cost currently. It’s way to basic for a professional or even an amateur looking to do any sort of real design..Version: 4.25.0
✓ Doesn’t a really do anything for free£30 a month no thanks.Version: 4.13.6
✓ Used to be greatI work at a large landscape company and was sold in iScape for the past 3 years. It was awesome. They’ve made many updates and now it’s not good. In fact, I can’t even open it anymore. It opens, shows their logo, and goes back to iPad home screen. Since they’ve added this AR feature (not sure what it does since it’s not able to run on iPad) it’s been unusable. Freezes, loses designs, doesn’t save. I have hundreds of designs I can’t access now. Not worth a single penny at this point and I have spent hundreds of dollars on the app over the years. Please fix it, and take this garbage and restore it to the amazingly useful app it was. Do not buy until fixed..Version: 4.3.4
✓ Waste of time.This app is useless..Version: 4.1.2
✓ It not that goodI don’t like it because it so hard to start 👎🏻👎🏻.Version: 4.20.0
✓ Love it but..The app crashes, subscriptions is not the best for an app like this. I would happy pay $200 for an app like this if it didn’t crash or have to pay monthly. Great concept but needs work on the implementation..Version: 4.13.6
✓ GTFOHFor $39/month the developer better be sending his wife over couple times a month..Version: 4.24.2
✓ RubbishAbsolutely useless, wouldn't upload, kept trying to get me to play Candy Crush and Pet Rescue. If I wanted to play games I'd use the apps I already have! When I eventually got to the part where I upload my picture it froze and wouldn't do anything, not even let me use the example photo so I could see what I could do. I certainly wouldn't pay any money to get additional features..Version: 2.3.1
✓ False promisesThis is not a free app. It will only allow you to add grass, after which you need to make purchases to add other features. Look elsewhere..Version: 4.13.1
✓ Needs More WorkI was excited to use this app, but it kept crashing and glitching. I had to rebuild my project 5x before I finally got it to save before glitching and freezing up. Very frustrating and wasted a lot of time. Inventory list does not scroll down, so I had to re-search a plant every time I wanted to repeat it in the design. The augmented reality feature does not handle changing light conditions at all which is detrimental when using it for outdoor purposes. So now I can’t get my project to load at a different time of day from the same “starting point”. I really wanted this app to work as described because it is a great idea, but it’s just not ready with all the bugs. Please consider hiring more or better qualified developers, especially if you’re going to charge so much and say it’s for pros..Version: 4.7.0
✓ Needs some workI had hoped that in coming back to this app, some of the issues would be fixed, but it's still very glitchy. Several plants don't load properly. Hollyhock for example. If I try to implement hollyhock into a design, not only does it not load, but it also crashes the app so that other plants can't be selected. I then have to cancel out trying to add a plant and then try all over again with something else. Same issue with peony and I'm sure several others. Not only that, but the database is still fairly limited. It might be great for normal American landscapers who only use a handful of plants in their landscapes, but it's not as useful for those who like a little more interest and variety. But, there's not many other options out there. And the augmented reality is pretty neat. It definitely has some good qualities, but for the price, I still expect it to work correctly..Version: 4.16.2
✓ Trial too limitedThe idea of a trial is to determine whether or not an app will suit your needs. This apps trial is so limited I have not be able to determine if it will indeed suit my needs. After taking a photo of my yard, I was able to place 3 plants before being prompted to sign up for a subscription. I think I will go back to my school days and make a collage on paper!!!.Version: 4.10.4
✓ Just too expensiveSadly, this amazing app just became way too expensive..Version: 4.13.1
✓ Hard to useHard to use, difficult to change the size of plants. Only given a few options otherwise you have to buy packages. Not worth the time to download!!.Version: 2.5
✓ How much!!??Someone commented $14/m was too much a couple years ago.. they want $40CAD/m. FOURTY DOLLARS! That’s more than my water bill..Version: 4.26.2
✓ Ridiculous priceI have never been as offended by the price for a product as I have when this popped up asking for £30 A MONTH or £300 a year. Extortionate. There are triple A games costing hundreds of millions in development that provide hours of entertainment for £30 period. MS office is £7.99 a month! Annual subscription fees for software are an abomination and this is one of the most egregious examples of it. Get in the bin..Version: 4.25.0
✓ Not homeowner friendlyThis app was not created with the homeowner in mind. Started out great - took a nice photo of the area, plant options pop up but that’s where it ends. Have to pay for everything and was NOT offered a 1 week subscription to access all the plants. I only saw that after canceling my subscription, made less than an hour ago BTW. Worst $10 I ever spent. There are no filters or ways to easily search plants. For ex, go to any women’s clothing app/website and see the customer experience there and apply that here. Why can’t we filter by zone so only plants in my area show up? Or filter by width or height? Why not offer age progression - here’s what it will look like when they’re young, here’s 1 yr, here’s 2-3 yrs, here’s 5 yrs? Very basic app in my opinion with little functionality for the price..Version: 4.13.8
✓ Is it the worst app I’ve used?Terrible app. Completely unfit for purpose and the program itself is buggy as all heck. There are a plethora of reasons why it is rubbish, but I already feel upset I lost so much time, so I won’t waste mt breath.Version: 4.29.0
✓ Waste of an app!I downloaded this to see what are garden would look like if we were to change it. First of all its annoying and hard to use. Secondly it is free to download however it only gives you four different textures. Very disappointed!!! :-(.Version: 2.1
✓ Three major issuesI love design and have used several architectural apps for building houses, so when it came time to design my garden I tried iScape. The functionality took a bit to get used to, but was fairly user friendly for beginners. I noticed three major issues. One, no auto save. I found this out the hard way after spending about an hour totally rebuilding my garden and coming back after dinner to the last manually saved point. The other was plant sizes. There is no ruler or grid. You can make a plant appear to be a few inches tall or bigger than your house, even if the largest size that particular plant can ever grow is 24”. So I found myself going back and forth to Google checking all of the plant mature sizes over and over to make sure I was making them visually true to size. I also had some issues with the plant colors. If you want a red yarrow, but the database has yellow, you can try to manipulate the color, but it changes the entire plant color so you can end up with an alien looking plant. So this is fun for entertainment, but I’m canceling before the trial is up..Version: 4.16.2
✓ TerribleThis app is Sh!t it says place object on surface I put my phone on the floor and then it does nothing! Then it lags out and I never got to play it again DONT GET THIS APP.Version: 4.0.2
✓ LimitedUnless you want to pay £££ for a picture of gravel forget it. It's cheaper to buy the real stuff from a garden centre..Version: 2.3.1
✓ Go elsewhereDevelopers got greedy again and ruined a good idea by chaging money for every item you want to add to your design.Version: 4.4.3
✓ Free Option Not GreatI wanted to give this a try to help visualise the garden I’m hoping to get but there are very limited options to choose from in the basic app. Even some basic common trees are blocked from use. I can’t justify the £30 a month for something I’ll use a few times in a year..Version: 4.28.0
✓ Not what I was looking forAdvertised as “free” but everything in it is locked unless you pay to upgrade..Version: 4.13.8
✓ Good enough for trial onlyNeat concept but fell way short. I bought the three month subscription after doing the trial and it’s not much better. It actually got worse and glitchy. After saving a design, had to close app and reopen it to start a new design(bug does not see photos on iPad Pro photo folder either). A big pet peeve, is not being able to change the angle of view of any given asset. The only way to design from photos is to design from a straight ahead view and perspective not angled as the assets can’t be angled to adjust for the perspective. I have not tried the AR portion as it might be better but remains to be seen. If you buy, don’t buy any more than a month at a time..Version: 4.4.1
✓ Absolutely hopelessJust freezes on my new iPad all the tap. Won’t open and if it finally does I find I can’t do anything unless I sign up to a large subscription every month. Not even a free trial. If you don’t want to commit to a program that freezes constantly but costs loads then don’t waste your time..Version: 4.14.4
✓ Was so excited for thisI'm new to DIY landscaping, and was so excited to get my project started with this app. First trying to purchase pro was nearly impossible and took me about an hour to figure out a bug and a way around it. Then I soon realized that the app crashes. Often. Like every 5 minutes or less. Worse, it didn't recognize my email as having an account, so I kept losing project work because I wasn't signed in. Finally, while an amazing concept, it is frustrating to use. Glitchy, freeze prone, hard to even 'grab' objects.' Feels very 'beta' to me..Version: 4.25.0
✓ Just too expensiveLooks interesting but there’s no way I’m spending £300 in a year for that. I’m sure some people will but not for me..Version: 4.26.2
✓ Impossible to use before signing up to £25 per month.Downloaded the free version expecting to be able to create a basic design so that i could evaluate before committing but unfortunately this wasn’t the case. Disappointed but will try an alternative app.Version: 4.13.6
✓ Free version is disappointingly basicGreat app, but you have to pay to get any decent abilities.Version: 4.12.2
✓ Not enough!Is looks great when you first get it, but then you start and the you see that you have to pay for all extras. Extras are what you really need..Version: 2.3.1
✓ Overpriced toyThis app is easy to use, unlike some other garden apps I test drove, but the trade off is that it is really just a toy. You can’t do much with the free version (unless your garden has fewer than 10 plants in it, in which case you probably don’t need an app to keep track of them), so I sprang for one month of the pay version to play around with. This provided some mild entertainment for a couple of hours, particularly because of the cool feature that lets you take a photo of your existing landscape and add plants to it. But, ultimately, it is just not a useful tool. The in-app plant catalog is so limited that I had to identify surrogates for virtually everything I wanted, and the lack of any sizing function meant it took a lot of fiddling around to make similarly tall plants appear about the same height. Even this step involved referencing other sources, as the in-app plant descriptions tended toward the sparse side. The only reason I think anyone would want to keep an ongoing subscription to this is because they forgot to tell the App Store to discontinue it (which is, unsurprisingly, not as straightforward a process as it should be)..Version: 4.1.0
✓ DisappointingYou get a few bushes for free but less that 10 items and it won’t let you change the actual flooring. My back yard is paved and I’d like to see it with grass but that’s not possible with this app sadly.Version: 4.13.1
✓ A marginal improvement from MS PaintSoftware is pretty poor. The interface is unwieldy. Add more than a few items and selection and moving them around doesn’t work well. Want to place a design element? Say for example you want to put a small boulder field in as a landscaping element. You. Have. To. Do. It. One. Boulder. At. A. Time. Not only is that inefficient, but the imagery is ugly and uniform. The only thing that is easy to do quickly is to draw a boundary and fill it with a texture. Unfortunately the textures don’t scale worth a darn and you can’t really get them to be scaled to match your background. It might be worth a few dollars in a year, but absolutely not worth the amount they are asking..Version: 4.14.1
✓ AwfulTake a picture of your garden and then pay more money to overlay pictures of grass, paving etc. Rubbish. Uninstalled..Version: 2.3.1
✓ Won’t Do Anything Except OpenI downloaded this because it was well reviewed, but after downloading it and pulling it open I can’t get it to do anything. I tried both the 2D design and AR options, it takes a while for the screen to switch and once it does and you should be able to start to create it’s just a black screen with either the camera options around it, or some green indicator lines and nothing else. The camera image never actually loads, and no other options ever appear on your screen. You also can’t go back and so have to close out the whole app in order to try again, which is futile because it’s the same problems over and over. As time consuming and slightly frustrating as sketching everything out to scale by hand is, it’s honestly preferable if you’re just looking to do something for your yard..Version: 4.13.1
✓ Good but lacks somethingReally really good app just needs an update to be able to rotate structures to be able to fit items properly.Version: 3.2.1
✓ Buy now try laterLooks like it could be good but can’t even try anything other than adding a few trees before you’re asked to subscribe, could consider buying it if I’d managed to have a trial to see if it would be worth doing so , app also crashed on me and have now deleted it.Version: 4.16.1
✓ No pebble optionNo option to create a pebbled area, only pavers etc so not much use to me.Version: 4.30.0
✓ Waste of timeThis app is horrible it's not user friendly and extremely limited I am glad I tried the free version as I would kick myself for paying for this!!!!.Version: 1.3.1
✓ Limitations right out of the gateThis tool appears to have great potential. I’m even fine with the premium content subscription. My issue upon first use is that I have to actively be working on a project to start zeroing on design themes and plants as well as climate. It would make much more sense to have an option to establish all of this (growing zone, style such as “English Garden”, shade or sun and then finally plants) in a profile or preliminary project file. We cannot browse the pictures, plants and objects unless we begin a project... This is especially key if you plan to use the AR function which had us standing in the sun sweating through our clothes as we tried to search for and select simple items. We finally abandoned our efforts and moved back to scrubbing the web for ideas on Houzz..Version: 4.13.1
✓ Not worth the priceIt’s easier to download a free image editor and paste images of flowers and pavers than use this slow loading tool (even on iPad pro) with very limited editing features. Paver images are not great and do not fit well to scale even after manipulation. There are better options..Version: 4.13.8
✓ Waste of time downloadingCheap options that aren’t worth it. Don’t waste your time downloading this app..Version: 4.13.8
✓ Awful absolutely awfulWorst app ever 😫.Version: 4.13.1
✓ I'm no Annie Leibovitz, but that doesn't mean you can have my photos for free!I just completed a stone retaining wall around a new flower bed and decided I would try out the full version of the app (I had tried the demo before - original review is below) - I was enjoying myself as well. I had known the app's plant image library was limited but the user is able to insert their own photos in the upgraded version of the app, which was acceptable. The app does not allow you to insert your own photo directly into your project, it must be uploaded to iScape's server first - and to do that you must first agree to give up all rights to your photos to the vendor, to use, sell, distribute, or just plaster all over their office as some corporate stalkeresque wallpaper. This is insane. I know my pictures aren't going to be hanging in any gallery, but they are *mine* and i'm not going to give them away to a peddler of overpriced software. What it actually is is a demo for yet another app that wants a monthly subscription to access any meaningful features. The 'free' (demo) version gives you access to 16 trees, 7 shrubs, and no constructed elements (paths, gazebos, boarders, etc.) Which makes is almost completely unusable. The app itself seems perfectly fine, just unusable without a subscription..Version: 4.13.8
✓ Potential is there but very buggy!I have the iPhone 12 Pro Max with 256GB memory, latest iOS version and I haven’t been able to use this App. The app offers two ways to work: AR and 2D image. 2D image is harder to use because you must create your own perspective and size everything accordingly. AR should be the way to go. But the AR super slow to start up and get a bearing on the topography. Then it’s slow to add items, and crashes constantly. Recovering from a crash is slow and rarely works for me. I’m very disappointed as I was planning on using this to work out some improvements to our home. Fix this!.Version: 4.13.6
✓ Save your timeThis might be an excellent app but the demo version does not allow you to do anything except place a couple of layers on a photo from library. If they want to sell the app they need to unlock all the capabilities to enable purchasers to see what the app can do otherwise don’t bother....Version: 4.2.3
✓ MisleadingI'm all for paying for an app but don't advertise it as "in app purchases" when you literally can't do anything without purchasing a subscription. I would have paid for it - just be upfront about it. Annoying..Version: 3.3.1
✓ LimitedI could barely do anything without buying. So sucky☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️.Version: 4.13.9
✓ Free trial waste of timeOnly got to add two items in free trial.Version: 4.8.2
✓ Bought on phone won’t work on iPadI purchased the subscription on my phone. I tried using it on my iPad for easier use. It showed the plants were locked and when I clicked it says to upgrade to pro (which I’ve already done- same iCloud, different device). When I try to purchase subscription on my iPad it says I’ve already purchased then a menu comes up to manage subscription or continue. When I click continue it just freezes loading every time. I’ve tried everything from closing and opening, logging out of phone, deleting and redownloading app. Seems like it won’t work at all unless I use a completely different account. I guess I’ll have to cancel and retry after the month to re purchase on just my iPad..Version: 4.23.2
✓ Poor all the features have to be purchasedWhat's the point of this? Take a picture of your garden and then pay 69p for each feature you want to add! Just look out the window and use your minds eye, it's better and cheaper. Poor app. Could have been fantastic..Version: 2.3.1
✓ Load of RubbishYet again, another app that wants you to buy the full package. What ever happened to a free trial of the FULL version before you buy. Just greediness gone mad !!.Version: 2.4.1
✓ Don't botherCan't get items to scale of photos, you need to make your photo perfect to the scale of the items. It's like a kids sticker book..Version: 2.5.3
✓ UselessOnly 1 grass and 1 bark.... colouring in textas would be more useful!.Version: 2.3.1
✓ Must Pay to UseDon’t bother. It is useless unless you pay for a subscription..Version: 4.13.8
✓ Good AppI’m just starting on this app and It’s pretty good so far. I wish that you could manipulate the items better like 360 degree motion as well as scaling the edges (doted lines) when selecting an being able to do the same with the items. You can only manipulate the items up to a certain degree and it makes it very hard to fit the items the right way. Especially when creating hard landscapes and stairs. For this price, you would think that they would have those options. It would be amazing if I could use my 360 camera with this app. I did not try. Can someone tell me if I could use a 360 imagery instead of a flat photo?.Version: 4.16.2
✓ Buggy and keeps crashingLike the idea of this app but keeps crashing on iPad and iPhone..Version: 4.13.6
✓ ILandscapeGreat concept but a little painful to use. Images are very restricted, to bad if you live on a hill and want to add a fence to your picture unless you want your palings perpendicular to slope. I hope they upgrade this otherwise I've wasted my money..Version: 1.3.4
✓ Good but hate Subscription optionsPlease have a purchase outright option, I refuse to play for Subscription to something I can never own..Version: 4.5.0
✓ Horrible communication! This app is a scam!DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS!! They keep charging you even after you cancel. Almost impossible to communicate with them. I only wanted to use to design my own back yard for a few days. BUYER BEWARE!!.Version: 4.13.1
✓ Super frustrating waste of timeLooks like a great app until you try to use it. Even the most simple project is next to impossible to design because everything useful is locked. A misleading and horrible money grab..Version: 4.18.0
✓ Crashes as soon as you do anything in ARThis looks like it could be a great product. Unfortunately it fails as soon as you try an AR project as it crashes as soon as you try to add anything..Version: 4.13.6
✓ Don’t bother to download unless you’re going to payI realize that a pro version should have more bells and whistles, but when I can’t even add a fruit tree to the free version? It was a waste of my time and should be explained that the free version enables you to take a picture of your yard and then put grass on it. Not in any useful fashion, but as a tiled square. I can do better just with my marked up photo..Version: 4.13.0
✓ DeceivingYou need to buy the paid app, not worth it,already deleted the app lucky it was free.Version: 2.0
✓ Don’t botherPlaced 3 items and was prompted to create an account. Have no idea how good the app is from 3 interactions. Very poor user exp.Version: 4.11.0
✓ RubbishDon't bother wasting £10 on this app. Very restricted in what you can do and you are encouraged to spend even more money on extra features / top ups. You would be better just buying a pencil, ruler and a rubber. Very disappointed..Version: 2.6.2
✓ Freezes up too muchI don’t know if it’s the new updates it won’t keep up with or not, but I loved this app, then all of a sudden, it would freeze up and not load the flower or trees or any items to decorate with. I would restart the app, restart my phone, but the same thing over and over again. I even tried removing the app and adding it again. Cancelled the subscription because of this, so they lost a customer. Darn, because it really is a cool app when it worked. If they fix this part, you’ll really like it in my opinion..Version: 4.13.2
✓ IScapeNot worth spending any money.Version: 4.13.2
✓ Don’t waste your timeThe free version of this app is useless. Can’t believe they have the nerve to charge 13 and change a month for the consumer upgrade. Falsely advertised..Version: 4.13.1
✓ Complete rip offAfter you have spent £10 they ask you for money for basics in landscaping like flower beds. And you can't save your designs without spending more money. The software is clunky and the idea is badly implemented. It's a good idea done badly. Don't waste your money..Version: 2.6.2
✓ Don't waste your time downloadingAll you can do is take a photo and add some grass - everything else is an in-app purchase. They also don't understand how to apply exchange rates as the UK conversion to GBP offers the packs at twice the US price. The concept of this app is good, just a shame the developers are on a get rich quick trip - Don't waste your time downloading it !!!.Version: 2.1
✓ Free version pointlessWhilst I can see the value, the free version stops after only one feature. Forcing you to purchase a license. Not happy.Version: 4.10.4
✓ TerribleDon’t bother downloading this if you are looking for a demo or you want to try it out. Everything is locked till you pay for it..Version: 4.13.8
✓ Australian gardenNice app to use but wish the plant choices were more extensive to particular regions. There are no Australian Natives in the plant catalogue provided. I also couldn't find a hybiscus anywhere..Version: 2.3.1
✓ Needs cheaper optionsThere needs to be a mid-tier price range. I'm thinking about getting into a design career, whether it be indoor or outdoor design... I'm not sure yet. I got extremely excited when I found this app, especially for the AR mode. I felt I'd finally be able to test my skills and see how I feel redesigning my yard (a former Japanese Garden that's seen better days...). I was blown away when I saw the ONLY asking price was $30 a month or $300 a year... Now I do feel the app is worth it to the right person, it definitely holds its value it's very top notch... But my issue is at just how little you get access to with the free option. There are only 29 objects TOTAL. That includes furniture, trees, and bushes. That's not possible to work with. I don't actually work in this line of work and want to use this for personal use/entertainment. The price just simply does not work for me. Not at all. And it really is unfortunate because I don't think there's another app on the store anywhere like it. Look up a game called "house flipper" on PC. I've dumped MANY hours into that game. This could very easily take influence and benefit from that game, especially with a one time payment of some sort..Version: 4.13.6
✓ Disgusting prices.I was under the presumption that you could actually use this app without having to remortgage your house for. There is literally no features you can use without having to pay £30 a month or £300 a year… considering it’s just an app that is outrageous prices. Deleted it within 5 mins..Version: 4.25.0
✓ Don’t understand the point of free trial?Free trial activated but don’t get access to anything at all? Funny. Removed subscription, waste of time..Version: 4.26.2
✓ I really want it to workThis app is such a useful concept for those of us who want to design our own landscape, but it's 100% unusable. Even the sign up flow is largely broken. Once I was able to create an account, I went into the AR screen and sometimes the tracking simply fails to initialize, when it doesn't fail, the 3d models never load, it just freezes in the loading state. And it doesn't ever cache the objects, like ever. So if your switch away from the app and come back to it, it attempts to reload this 3d models all over again even if you did manage to load them. But boy, for that .1% of the time when you get the app to fully function, it sure is cool.Version: 4.12.0
✓ UnsubscribeThis doesn’t do what I need it to do, I’ve been looking everywhere for how to ensure I don’t pay, I’ve uninstalled is that it?.Version: 3.3.9
✓ HopelessYou can’t do anything unless you buy the upgrade.Version: 4.12.2
✓ Not at all accessibleI was looking for something the map out plan a garden. Could not find a way to do this as it works on photos only and I can not get an Ariel photo of my garden (like most people). Also so few features available without paying the fee I have no way of knowing weather it will be useful…but first impressions not. I also prefer not to commit to any charges (even with a free trial) until I know what I am committing to. So will delete the app 24 hours after downloading it..Version: 4.21.1
✓ Total deceptionThe only option you have is to upload a photo and add grass! Any and all other features are not free! Deleted..Version: 2.0
✓ Free version is horribleWhat is the point of the app if I can’t even place one plant on my image? All plants/flowers are locked!.Version: 4.12.2
✓ Too expensiveFree version is way too restrictive and as a home gardener I can't afford 50$ pm.Version: 4.29.0
✓ So unfairYou get access to all the crappiest features unless you pay 13$ and a monthly subscription. Could’ve been a good app but you guys had to ruin it by not only charging, but charging way too much. Wouldn’t recommend..Version: 4.17.0
✓ Looks good until....App looks great until you download a picture and try and do anything. They want you to pay for everything you want to do or add to your landscape!! Come on, just be up front in the first pace and charge a set price for the app!!!.Version: 2.3.1
✓ Terrible!!Paid for the pro version as I couldnt do anything with the free. That was a mistake! The app is constantly crashing, then it won't load the content, it does not save your work as you go. I have lost the same thing 3 times. I'm trying to get a refund from Apple and their automatic system is refusing. As if all the bugs were not enough, this app might let you see how it could, look but it sucks for actual planning. You can't see the space from above making everything 2 dimensions..Version: 4.13.1
✓ Not for the casual userFreaking too expensive for a casual user/avg homeowner. It’s a bit hokey with results like being a first time photoshop user. The premise is great. The execution is mostly good. You will not be able to make everything look realistic in the current iteration and object catalog. Soooo many variables with light, texture, distance, etc. Because it’s $20 a month, it’s not worth a homeowner unless you are willing to pay the price and/or doing multiple projects within a time frame where $20 a month is saving you money. For a pro, this is a no brainer. Perfect because you can roll the expense into your overhead. If I were a pro this app wouldn’t even be questioned. Of they have a single price or take out the AR, I’ll be back. But for now, the cost can not justify the time used..Version: 4.13.1
✓ Needs moreThis is great for seeing what the garden will look like but you still need to do research on what will grow in the conditions of your garden ie. zones, soil type, sun, shade, etc. I haven't found this on the app yet but don't think it's available. Presents many types of plants to give ideas. Easy to place in garden and looks real..Version: 4.4.2
✓ You have to buy everythingSorry - $399.99 is not worth it to have a photoshop app for your back yard. Too bad that the price holds it back from reaching the mases and actually being useful..Version: 4.30.1
✓ DeletedNeed to let you use it a little before asking for money to subscribe. Deleted.Version: 4.14.1
✓ Utter Garbage Mining for PurchasesThis is just trash. I’m running a fully up to date iPhone 11 Pro in full daylight and not only does this thing require an incredibly expensive subscription to unlock basic landscaping materials, it cannot find my marker pin, almost always fails to initialize the AR, only saves about 10% of the items I place and crashes during basic actions like item placement or saving. In addition, it doesn’t allow fundamental things like the resizing of objects (you realize trees come in more than one size, right?). Maybe you can, but none of the dial selections seem to allow resize and it crashes if I try them, anyway. I’ve tried this three or four times over a few years hoping it would improve, but it doesn’t. Worthless app not getting a dime from me..Version: 4.13.8
✓ No useful manual or instructionsGreat that some people find it intuitive, but what on earth are we supposed to do if we don't? There are no useful instructions or manual, and I couldn't work out how to do anything, so it was completely useless..Version: 4.13.6
✓ Poor and annoyingNot happy with this app. It works OK but there are so many in app purchases required to make anything like useful. The mist annoying thing though is the constant reminder ever minute to either write a review or upgrade the app. Not the way to operate and I will not bother with the app any more..Version: 2.3.1
✓ This is not free.You start with ground cover and then have to pay to unlock anything you add. Too expensive for choice of plants..Version: 4.13.8
✓ Awful appI was really excited to use this so I could mess around with some ideas for my garden but nope, You have to pay for everything and the app is NOT cheap. Around £30 a week or £289 for the year. It says 7 day trial but won’t even go through so I’m assuming they take money from you right away. I would not pay for this app as there not much and isn’t life like enough to see what you can do. Although didn’t see much with everything being locked. Think it needs updating and heavily reducing if it wants to continue lying and charging people..Version: 4.16.2
✓ MrThey say free but what's free isn't worth it. Not a good app at all..Version: 2.5.2
✓ JokeWhy would I pay $13.49 for a month just to design one space? Ridiculous. Everything is locked and needs to be purchased..Version: 4.13.1
✓ $10 to try basic functionality feels wrongIt should be possible to use some basic functionality to find out if the app is what you want. It allows you to try a few things out and decide if you like it. An app that is nominally free but can’t be used without paying $10 feel like a bait and switch. Just charge this upfront and list it as the price. It wastes peoples time when you get them to think they are going to be able to try something out for free before deciding they like it or not. Only to find out after installing it that they can’t. Feels unethical. A review on techradar said the app is free unless you want to by the pro version. It isn’t..Version: 4.13.8
✓ Why Pay for app if it won’t work?!!!Good app in general. The cost to upgrade is too much but I did go ahead and pay for one month in order to be able to add more than 5 items....only to then have the app keep crashing EVEN THOUGH I DID THE UPDATE that supposedly fixed that but obviously did not. So basically a waste of money. Not very happy..Version: 4.3.3
✓ Stole my moneyI upgraded to the pro account it took my money but now won’t let me log into the account. Basically my money has been stolen. Be aware.Version: 4.25.0
✓ Downloaded or not!!!I have downloaded the app, registered etc etc but appears to suggest it’s not downloaded 😡.Version: 4.18.0
✓ Crashes constantlyHi, I tried to use this to map out my backyard but find the app crashes constantly after mapping out one or two ground cover areas. Have updated app and tried on iPhone and iPad to no avail. A shame as I did pay up thinking this looked great..Version: 4.14.4
✓ Great ConceptI really like this idea. It would be even better if we had the option of placing items in front or behind, but this may be available on the paid version. It's also a bit difficult to resize items. Other than that; FABULOUS!.Version: 1.0
✓ Good App but...BEWARE. I was enjoying this app and was paying a monthly subscription for all the features. Unexpectedly, I just received a bill for a yearly subscription. I do not want a yearly subscription (over $300) and now find that I cannot get a refund through Apple. I feel that I have been tricked into clicking on the wrong button..Version: 4.11.4
✓ No goodI know it's free but it just doesn't work. Can't select textures etc with single tap or double tap. Can't do anything so don't waste anytime trying it out..Version: 2.5.4
✓ No plants/flowers on free version…why even bother with a free version if there’s literally nothing available to it? I looked around and tried to add some basic plants, but every single one I looked up was locked. Also, an app like this is simply not worth $29/mo to me..Version: 4.25.0
✓ BasicVery basic access to anything unless you pay.Version: 4.13.6
✓ Crappy AppWhy bother offering a free App that only works when you have to pay for every part of it to actually work! This App would become a very expensive App if you decided to go ahead to pay for everything. DO NOT BOTHER INSTALLING!!.Version: 2.3.1
✓ Heck NoThe app itself seems pretty good but the price is atrocious. The paid version cost $30 wait, I’m not done, $30 PER MONTH! And without that, you get just a few samples to play with and that’s it. So I paid $5 one time for DreamzAR which is easier to use IMO but unfortunately doesn’t have any big trees. But it does have fences, benches and other things that iScape doesn’t have, so why would I shell out that much for an app when I can literally just look at a landscape and figure out what would look good? Maybe pro’s can use the app to sell their plan to homeowners but for the DIY landscaper, this app is not even worth the time it takes to download..Version: 4.16.2
✓ GarbageGarbage.Version: 4.13.8
✓ Free version is ridiculously limitedThey’ve further limited the selection of plants for the free version. What am I going to do with 14 trees, 8 flowers, and some fruit gardens? Can’t even place a single bush. The app is useless unless you pay $13.50-$27 a month. You could do better in MS paint..Version: 4.12.2
✓ ABSOLUTELY USELESSIf I could give zero stars I would. Do not even think about wasting your time downloading this. I managed to take two photos on it and all it does now is spend an age loading the photos and then gets stuck. If I try to start a design on any of the three options it won’t let me proceed until I have purchased a subscription..Version: 4.13.1
✓ Don’t botherThe free version has nothing really to offer, just a few plants. The subscription is then $50. Not worth playing with at home. Also, you can’t just draw up walls and patios, you need to work from a photo, so no good if you are really changing things up..Version: 4.28.0
✓ Usual Apple app money grabbingIs it free? NO of course not. You only get free access to one item in each of the categories. Just the same as all other “free” planning/drawing tools. Don’t waste your time. Choose a paid app that’s honest about what it offers..Version: 4.13.1
✓ Simply doesn’t workDownloaded the app on my M1 iPad. Subscribed to the highest level of subscription (Trial for 1 week, renewal per month) and went outside. The app immediately started showing bugs. Lines in AR randomly appeared, moved randomly, added ‘points’ I didn’t add myself or the function of drawing lines simply got stuck. Tried it for about 30 min, walking around, redrawing lines for pavers over and over again but never got it to work. This app needs a lot of work before it is bug free and user friendly. Unsubscribed from the renewal and will try another app. If basic functions won’t work I’m in no mood to speak with the developer about how to improve matters. My business time is too expensive..Version: 4.18.0
✓ Not For Beginning EntrepreneursI do landscaping on the side and wanted an option to do my designs so I can give the clients a nice mock up to help them visualize the end goal. However, I didn’t realize that the free option was as limited as it is. I don’t do enough large scale projects to make it worth the $30 a month. I predominantly do small installs, trimming/clean ups, replacement and treatments. The app also regularly crashes, freezes and becomes unresponsive on my iPhone 8. It may work a little more seamlessly on a newer iPhone or iPad. This would be worth it for someone actively doing larger installs, but not someone like me who only does 2-3 large projects a year. Kind of a bummer because it could really be useful to help me get more work. But until then, I’m going to have to pass..Version: 4.13.8
✓ Waste of moneyEven after spending the $13 for the app, main features aren't available. You can't save in the program, etc. There is an additional $21 fee to unlock all other features, really? Also it crashes when ever I try to use certain textures. App is far from being able to charge those prices..Version: 2.6.2
✓ Cost is big jump.The jump from new user to subscriber isn’t too bad, subscriber needs to be able to save more projects than 2. The jump to pro user is way to much and I don’t need half of the stuff in pro..Version: 3.3.1
✓ MissWHAT A RIPOFF! I just purchased a $12 app that doesn't work unless I make further in-app downloads which are a further cost. I now have an expensive app I can't use- what a waste! VERY UNHAPPY,.Version: 2.3.1
✓ This app does nothing, expect take a picture.I can’t get past any point in this app to do anything. It’s taken all my personal information, down to marking your GPS coordinations and nothing. Frustrating.Version: 4.0.2
✓ Difficult to useYou have to agree to waive all rights to photos, even if they are your own. Then you hope to use the items they have in the app, but they don’t have regular back yard stuff like sheds. I will have to go to a store that sells sheds, take a picture and load it I guess. All of this for one project. They should have a homeowner version where you can pay by project, not monthly..Version: 4.13.6
✓ Really nice programIt’s a nice program, but I wish they had a subscription for us DIY people. The current subscription rates are too much for the limited use we would need..Version: 4.18.0
✓ Unable to useI couldn’t even open the first project I wanted to do. Just a black blank screen with a touquise shape. Unable to edit or alter. Had to delete the app as could not delete and start again..Version: 4.13.6
✓ Flicks offDecent app but flick offs..Version: 4.18.0
✓ Pricey400.00 a year. Are you mad? Not worth it..Version: 4.27.0
✓ Wouldn’t workApp kept freezing..Version: 4.13.8
