Ezina and eight plant apps, side by side

We checked eight plant care, ID and garden apps against Ezina on the same 30 questions, in the apps themselves and their store listings. Here's the short version, with a full comparison for each app.

We make Ezina, so read this knowing that. Each app's full comparison says where we found every fact.

  • Has it
  • Partly
  • Not offered or not found
  • Not checked

The same 30 questions for every app: five per area, one dot each. Each app's paid plan is compared, and its full comparison says where we checked every row. Not checked means we could not confirm it either way, and it is not counted. Ezina's column is the same on every page but PlantIn's, where its Lower price row counts as partly.

§ 015 · The score

Why Ezina scores highest

  • It covers the whole garden

    Houseplants, beds and food in one app, and Dig maps your own yard: its sun, frost pockets and wet ground. None of the other eight maps your yard.

  • It shows its sources

    Every treatment step cites an extension service, a U.S. agency or the RHS, and native status comes from county records. Six of the eight publish no sources for their advice; we couldn't check the other two.

  • It keeps your data yours

    No tracking for ads, an export of everything from Settings, and a written promise never to sell your data. Five of the eight share data for advertising.

Where it scores lowest is price. Every other app here costs less or has a free plan, and Ezina works only in the contiguous U.S.
