Plant care that stays yours

1.3.0
October 18, 2026
A wish list, and projects Foliar has always been about the plants you have. This release adds the ones you want, and the things you make with them. The wish list keeps a plant you have seen somewhere: a name, a species, a photo, where to buy it, roughly what it costs, how much you want it. All of that is optional except the name. When you finally get it, "I got it" moves it into your plants with its photos and its notes, and remembers how long it was on the list. Projects are for a terrarium, an arrangement, a painted pot, or anything else you are making. Materials to tick off, photos as it comes along, and the plants it uses, whether you already own them or they are still on the wish list. A project that uses a plant you later lose keeps that plant by name, so the record of what you made stays whole. Both live behind a switch at the top of the Plants tab. There is no new tab, nothing new on the home screen except one quiet button, and no reminders: a terrarium is not a plant with a watering can pointed at it. Notes on your photos The photo journal has held a notes field since the first version, and only the assistant could ever fill it. Now you can. Add a note when you take a photo, or write one on any photo later, and the thumbnails show the date and the first line so the journal reads at a glance. An answer from the assistant is a note like any other: correct it, rewrite it, or remove it. A diagnosis you can argue with Asking what looks wrong with a plant now uses the stronger model, answers in the language the app is set to, and knows that plant's recent care. A photograph alone cannot tell too much water from too little. If the answer is still wrong, tell it what you can see and it tries again with your note. One correction, not a conversation. The assistant remains entirely optional and runs on your own provider key. Also in this release 59 more species, bringing the catalogue to 179: more palms and ferns, the flowering plants people are given, a few carnivores, and the herbs that live on a kitchen windowsill. If you would rather not see the banners for a while, you can watch one video to hide them for a day. It is offered quietly, never as a pop-up, and nothing is bought.
