## What is Garden Sage?

Identify a plant from a photo, understand visible changes and keep its care in one place. Your first plant identification is free. Care guidance and further plant checks require a subscription. Eligible new subscribers can start a free 3-day trial through the App Store.

Take or choose a photo. Garden Sage may show a visual prediction, a supported match or a broader plant type. When the evidence permits it, the result adds confidence, care context and a practical next step. If the image does not support a useful answer, it asks for a different view instead of pretending certainty.

Ask about leaf spots, yellowing, wilting, pests or care. Garden Sage uses what is visible, what you tell it and optional Local Conditions to explain what to check first. Its guidance is informational, not a professional diagnosis.

Save plants to My Garden so photos, health checks, care notes and reminders stay together. Log watering and feeding, then return to compare what changed.

Garden Sage Premium includes up to 50 plant checks per day and removes the two-plant save limit. Prices, renewal periods and trial eligibility come from the App Store. A trial renews to the selected subscription unless cancelled in Apple subscription settings.

Garden Sage uses visual and contextual signals, but identification and care guidance can be uncertain. Do not use it for toxicity, medical, veterinary or emergency decisions.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.3.3 — 2026-09-08

Identify your first plant before choosing a subscription. Your first plant identification is free; care guidance requires a subscription. Eligible new subscribers can start a free 3-day trial. Your identified plant is ready to continue after you subscribe, and unclear photos guide you to try again.

### 1.3.2 — 2026-09-05

The onboarding experience now makes the subscription choice and next step clearer before your first plant check. Plan details and Restore Purchases are easier to find, while predictions, supported matches and uncertainty remain clearly labelled.

### 1.3.1 — 2026-08-30

Plant identification is now prediction-first, with fewer target-selection prompts and clearer predicted matches. This update also improves busy garden scenes and weak matches while keeping plant-specific care behind confirmation.

### 1.3 — 2026-08-29

Onboarding now keeps the full garden questionnaire so guidance can reflect your experience, growing space and plants. For photos with dense or overlapping foliage, a new sticker selector helps you choose the plant that matters, with the subject front and centre preferred by default. Sticker selections are isolated on a neutral background within a bounded crop; the crop frame sends the selected rectangular area. Analysis no longer sends you through a repeated crop loop, and this update also improves honest uncertainty and reliability.

### 1.2 — 2026-08-24

Plant identification now gets you to care with fewer retakes. When Garden Sage can recognise a broader plant type and lets you save it to keep monitoring. Saved plants now open into practical local care, with a clear next step and what to watch for. Plus some bug fixes!
