A listener just asked me to recommend a plant ID ap, paid or free, but I don't really use them.  Can someone recommend one that is reasonably accurate?

I did "Leafsnap" to be reasonably accurate, but I use the free version, so adverts are annoying.

a wee bit more...

I've used the free version of "Leafsnap" for 5 years or more.  Reasonably reliable, self-named lists can be stored, allows corrections,...

Adverts are cumbersome if using the free version.

I have had very good success with PictureThis. It is one of only 2 apps that I have ever spent money on. It gives what it thinks it is, but also lists multiple choices for possible plants. It gives additional information about the plant. I'd recommend it.
