What the research shows
A concise read of store listings, Reddit discussions, editorial reviews, and accuracy studies for this app.
Reviewed: 2026-05-27
App Store / Google Play
- App Store France shows 4.4/5 from 85 ratings, AIBY as developer, FR + 6 languages, weekly/monthly/yearly offers, diagnosis, reminders, water calculator, light meter, pet safety filter, and lunar calendar.
Reddit and user feedback
- Very low Reddit footprint; store reviews include complaints about wrong IDs and diagnosis mistakes, so it should be framed as newer and less proven.
Web articles and studies
- Best compared as AIBY's newer care-utility sibling to Plantum, not as a market-leading ID database.
Caveats
- Small rating sample, iPhone-only listing, tracking labels, and wide subscription price spread are the main caveats.
