Gotta be the best planty app!
I loved this app when it was the succulent tracker app and the Cheerful Plants upgrade has so many useful features added. The team behind the app is amazing and super responsive. Definitely recommend!

Thank you so much! I'm glad it's been so helpful for you!
Updates make a good app even better.
I’ve used this app since the beginning. Love it for my succulents as well as my houseplants. Whenever I have a problem the developer is quick to initiate a fix, whether it’s from the app or something I was doing wrong. It is so easy to know when you need to water, fertilize, etc. This would be a wonderful app for a newbie to get started with.

Horrible update
The last update is horrible. Before when you opened the app, the plants that needed to be watered were listed by location. Now when the app is opened, the are all listed whether they need to be watered. Plus they are not listed by location but name. To find out what plants need to be watered, you need to open another tab & again listed by name not location. I can change the category list to location but that is another step I have to take. It id harder to find what plants need to be watered with this upgrade. And the light background (as opposed to the previous black) make reading the plant names more difficult. I’ve had this app since its inception & have a yearly subscription (which just renewed). I’ll be looking for another app for my 100+ plants if this upgrade is not corrected. Most users do not like a whole new look/system to apps they’ve enjoyed in the past. Please fix this horrible update

Unable to load photos
I wanted to try this and started to add my first plant. After giving the app permission to use selected photos off my phone through settings, I was unable to load them. The app button “My Photos” does nothing. My only option would be to take new photos. The app does nothing function as it is supposed to.

Thank you for letting us know! We've made significant updates to the app that should improve this function. Please reach out if you'd like to try using the app again.
Love this app!
I Love that this app doesn’t need to store the photos on my phone. My only wish is that longer watering intervals are available. I have a cactus that only gets water twice a year, and the longest watering interval is Much shorter than that.
Response from developer
Thank you for the feedback! We have updated the available watering intervals so you can now do up to 999 days. Please feel free to contact us if you have any suggestions as we love implementing changes requested by users.
Good app but requires subscription for 5 plants
I don’t know why people don’t offer lifetime purchases anymore in stead of subscription. I’m always more willing to purchase a lifetime then a yearly subscription
Response from developer
I completely understand not wanting to have a subscription. On our end, it takes consistent development and storage fees to maintain the app so a one-time purchase wouldn't cover those updates.
Nice app
Great app! Would be nice to expand the data base for plants, can’t find info for most of my succulents.
I love it
This is my favorite plant app! I love that its a tracker so you can take notes and track how often you water or treat for pests or repot. Its just nice to have that info to look on. I also love that you can track their growth by taking pictures. Its so cool to look back on when you first got the plant and see how much its changed over time. I even note my soil mix ingredients so that if its not working out for a certain plant I can tweak it. Great app

Helpful app
I’m rather new to maintaining succulents, and this app has been a great help to me so far. Being reminded when to water them helps me both not under water or over water the succulents and cacti I’ve been keeping, which my friend tends to do. Would recommend to new and current succulent caretakers. My only complaint is that I cannot find the plant known as a desert rose in their database, which I would’ve liked if for nothing else to have another opinion on how often to water it. Otherwise, great app!

Thank you for your review! We are trying to expand our database to include more plants. If you ever have plant specific questions, you can alsways email us for input.
Must Have App
My favorite App, I use it everyday. Any issues I experienced were because of me (Operator Error) Customer service was excellent. Well worth the subscription fee. (You can also use it for free with a couple plants) The more I learn what all the app can do the more I love it.
Attractive, but lacks tools
Attractive, but lacks tools you would expect from a plant identification and care app. I was expecting a “succulent” app to be dedicated to identification and care of succulents, but it lacks those features. I f you do not already know why your plant is, and how to care for it, this will not help because it is little more than a database and reminder. There is a buried plant database, but it is manual l. It has filters, but you need to know you have a Crassula to narrow down to anything similar and it does not seem to load all of the photos, so you have to tap to see what each Crassula is.
It is a little odd that you cannot enter the last time a plant was watered if it was watered before you added it. It is not clear to me what the $30/yr subscription gets you.

Love this App!!
I started my succulent obsession in February 2023 and now have 80+ plants and my collection continues to grow. All of my succulents are indoors and I needed a way to keep organized for their care. This App is wonderful and very user friendly. This App also lets you keep a photo journal of my succulents’ progress which I love. Yes, there is a fee if you have more than 5 plants, but it is minimal and so very worth it. I would be lost without this App. And, if you have plants indoors and outdoors, you can designate the plants location.

Thank you! We're so glad you've joined the obsession of growing succulents and that the app has been helpful 🥰
Very Helpful
Without this app. , I would not be able to remember when I watered my plants last.
Response from developer
We're so glad the app is helpful to you!
Great but
Great app, but I would really appreciate an ability to one time buy instead of the monthly subscription model.
Exactly what I wanted.
I started taking care of succulents a couple of years ago and somehow ended up with over 30 plants (counting props). Lol. My poor ADHD brain has had a slightly difficult time keeping track of the minutiae for every plant. A few months ago, I dreamed up an app that would help.
THIS is the app! I found it! And it’s almost perfect.
**NOTE: This isn’t an ID or Diagnostic app!**
It’s a Helper app: To help keep track of your succulents.
I’ve tried a few other apps that try to “do it all,” but they all fell short for me. I think this one is the best. There’s no AI feature for diagnosing problems or identifying unknown succulents, but what it DOES do, it does really WELL!
It took a little while to get comfortable with it, but getting started was pretty simple and easy. I had plants put in, named (genus, species & variety, and cultivar), nicknamed, tagged, photographed, and organized really quickly.
When I’ve wanted a feature, I’ve quickly realized that the feature already existed, I just hadn’t discovered it yet. For instance, I have different species of succulent props together in one dish: I can enter them each individually, and when I water the whole dish, I can bring up their tag (propdish) and log “water” for all of them as a group, instead having to log it for each one, separately.
I’m really pleased with this app overall. Pretty much everything I need is easy to see and keep track of. No more losing track of when something was watered or repotted last.
Highly recommend!

NOT HELPFUL
IMO this app is basically useless. It does not identify succulents. It does not offer any suggestions or helpful info about the plants. I guess it could be useful to someone that knows everything about every succulent but I'm not that person. The user has to enter all details about the plant & set all the reminders. I thought it would help me learn about my succulents but this is not the case. I'll be canceling my subscription. I've had other apps that offer these features, I'll return to those.

Basic
Simple and feature limited. Slightly more convenient than using my spreadsheet to keep track of my collection. Not enough functionality or value to ask for $2.99 per month.

Thank you for the feedback! We'd love to hear what features would make the app more worthwhile for you. Feel free to email us at support@succulenttracker.com
Plants are healthier
My plants are healthier. It helps me to know the date I fertilized and watered my plants and reminds me who needs water and fertilizer.
This app made me a better plant mom!
I had the worst luck with plants! They would die anytime I tried to keep them alive. They would just shrivel up. And. Die. This made me very very sad. So I decided to take action and change my life forever! This app has saved me!!! I love you succulent tracker!!! You are my best friend!!
Response from developer
I love this! Way to go taking action. Glad we could help make things easier 😊
Have to subscribe if more than 5 plants
The description said “in app purchases” but I didn’t read anything that said if you have more than 5 plants, you have to subscribe for a monthly or yearly fee to add them. What really ticked me off was that you’re not informed of this until you’ve already given them your email and mobile phone number. 😡
