# So alocasias and I don’t get along so I don’t buy them but somehow…

_Posted by Lisa\_starch\_bishop on 2026-08-12_

So alocasias and I don’t get along so I don’t buy them but somehow this one snuck in to my collection. My question is: what is it called? This app is all over the place. Thanks!

When the app acts up or I’m not too sure of the plant myself I always use Google lens, it helps figure out the hybrids or the plants this app doesn’t have yet. I’m not an avid alocasia person either but I have a couple that caught my eye and that I made sure I wouldn’t kill lol. Hope this helps ❤️

I have a Batik \& can confirm Google’s answer

Google wants me to download the app for some reason so I usually ask here or ask someone to use the lens feature. I don’t want anymore apps lol.

You don’t need to, if you go to google the photo icon is right on the search tab to the right, it’s a little camera looking icon you won’t miss it.

Yes when I click it, it prompts me to download the app. I can’t get past it.
