Scan Plant uses a plant photo to suggest possible matches. Scan Label reads the printed name on a nursery label. You can review either result before using it.
No. Identification is an AI suggestion, so compare the possible match with your plant. You can choose another match, try a clearer photo, or enter the names manually.
A Human name is an optional friendly name for your plant. Type your own or use Pick a name for a suggestion.
Yes. Open My Plants, find the plant, and tap Edit. You can update its photo, names, location, care schedule, and other details.
After you confirm a plant identity, CactusTracker may suggest watering, feeding, and light needs. Review the suggestions before using them, or choose Set my own.
Some identified plants include separate growing-season and dormant-season care suggestions. CactusTracker asks before applying a seasonal change to a saved schedule.
No. You can save a plant without a care schedule and add one later. Recommended care starts its countdown when the plant is added; a manual schedule starts after you add a care date and interval.
When notifications are enabled, CactusTracker combines due watering and feeding tasks into one notification at your reminder time. Tap it to open Tasks Due. Recording care updates the summary. Reminders are prepared 60 days ahead from the next day with care due and refreshed whenever you open the app.
CactusTracker records today's date, calculates the next due date, and updates your care summary when notifications are enabled.
Tap Remind me later on an overdue water check, then choose how many days to wait. CactusTracker keeps the last-watered date, moves the reminder, and switches that plant to a manual watering interval based on the total observed number of days. Its automatic care profile stays available if you switch back.
Gardens organize plants by location, such as a windowsill, patio, or greenhouse. You can also mark all scheduled plants in one location as watered.
The Archive keeps retired or lost plants out of your active collection without immediately deleting their history. A plant can be restored or permanently deleted later.
Tap Journal on a plant card to keep dated notes and progress photos together. The Journal compares the earliest and latest progress photos and returns you to the same plant when you go back.
It can answer practical questions using the plant's saved photo and care details. Treat its response as guidance, especially when diagnosing pests, disease, or safety concerns.
Your collection is saved to your signed-in account and can sync across devices. An internet connection is needed for account syncing and AI features.
