Not as good as the first
I downloaded the first Plant Nanny which I loved so I was very excited when this popped up as an advert! After using it for a few days I am severely disappointed. You can only have one preset cup amount, whereas in the original you could save multiple cup sizes, and it is a pain to change over and over again. It makes the whole aspect much more tedious. I was also hoping for new flowers and pots etc, but so far they all seem the same as what I already had. I don’t see much reason to change from the original app and I personally will be going back to it.

Plant Nanny 2
I’ve been using the original Plant Nanny for years, and have many plants and quests in progress that I don’t want to give up- is there a way we can merge our original PN with this new app? I also agree with other reviewers- please bring back the ability to log multiple different cup volumes! I have my original PN set up so I can easily track glasses that I use regularly. I think this could be a great app with some tweaks, and I’m loving the new plant selection so far!

Falls short of the original Plant Nanny
I hope the creators will still be updating the original Plant Nanny, because this new version falls short on the following points, for me: (1) no more options for different glasses of water - a feature I thought distinguished the original app from other health tracking apps. We don’t drink the same quantity of water every time we go for a glass of fluid! In the new version, I have to go change the custom glass size in the settings for each drink - that’s pretty inconvenient. (2) This is a personal preference, but I think the new aesthetics are too cutesy, and focused on the character rather than the plant! I want a plant, not a tamagotchi. I also like the window sill and the options for backgrounds.. Sure, the graphics could use an update, but the concept was nice - I found comfort and familiarity with having a houseplant by the window. The new background is not as relatable. (3) User interface is, yes, not as primitive as the original, but that also makes it a tad less simple and friendly. (4) This is so minor, but I thought the golden clovers was popcorn. Hehe (5) Finally, the advent of a new version seems to signal to the fact that the original will no longer be updated, and will slowly get phased out via incompatibility with newer software updates (ie. we will lose all of our precious plants and an app that works better than its successor). PLEASE KEEP UPDATING THE ORIGINAL PLANT NANNY 🙏!
