PlantIn App is a scam!

DO NOT subscribe to PlantIn. They charge you weekly, and even after completing the cancellation process, they continue charging!!! Apple needs to remove this app from the Apple Store.

iPhone 15 Pro, iOS 18

Did you subscribe on their website? They also have website subscriptions that are not managed by Apple and you would be charged directly from them whether you had the app or not. Many Social Media posts or website advertisements will direct you to a website for a subscription so they have control over billing you and also get money for the referral.


When subscribing through an app, the subscription can be viewed and managed in the link below. For a subscription that is managed by Apple, that is where you would want to cancel the subscription to avoid further charges and not through any cancellation process by the app/website.

I agree with Carol B. to report the app, but that will not stop the website subscriptions from continuing to bill users that were directed to their website.
