## What is Lawn & Grass Identifier?

Photograph a patch of lawn, answer a couple of questions, and find out what is actually wrong with it.

WHEN IT DOESN'T KNOW, IT SAYS SO

Most lawn apps name a cause every time you ask. That is easy to build and it is wrong often. Sward names a most likely cause only when the evidence genuinely favours one. When two or three stay close, it shows you the shortlist and the single physical check that separates them — tug a patch to see whether the roots have been cut through, or look at the edge of the damage instead of the middle.

Being told "not sure yet, and here is how to find out" is worth more than being told the wrong thing confidently.

A PHOTO IS NOT ENOUGH, SO IT ASKS

Fungus and drought damage look alike in a photograph. So do dog urine and fertilizer burn. Sward always asks at least two things a photo cannot answer — how often you water, what shape the damage is, how much sun that corner gets — and any one of your answers can argue the photo down.

It is also allowed to tell you nothing is wrong.

WHAT YOU GET

• A verdict with the confidence drawn, not a made-up percentage
• The grass species, when the blades genuinely show it
• A treatment plan written by people, never generated
• Weather-aware reminders — rain counts as watering, and a lawn dormant in the heat is never nagged to water
• Fertilizer and seed calculators, free
• A journal of what you did and what happened after

FREE, AND STAYING FREE

Three photo diagnoses a month. Reminders, logging, the journal, the health trend and both calculators are free and uncapped, with or without a subscription. A scan that fails costs you nothing.

Sward Premium adds unlimited diagnoses, the full treatment plan, chat with Rye and as many patches as you like. Seven days free.

NO ACCOUNT

There is nothing to sign up for. Your patches, photos and history stay on your phone.

## Version history (last 4 releases)

### 1.3 — 2026-09-23

Sward now speaks German, Spanish and French.

Every question Rye asks, every verdict he reaches and every treatment plan is in your language. So are his answers when you chat with him, and the notes he writes about what he could see in your photo.

Choose a language in Settings, or leave it to follow your phone.

### 1.2 — 2026-09-21

Line your next photo up with your last one.

The viewfinder can now fade in the last photo you took of
a patch, so you can stand where you stood and shoot the
same frame. Then "Then and now" shows what changed in the
grass instead of what changed about where you were
standing. Tap "Last photo" in the viewfinder — it stays
off until you ask for it.

Also in this version:

• Sward runs properly on iPad.
• The fertilizer and seed calculators no longer open with
  the keyboard covering the tab bar.
• Rye is easier to see on the diagnosis screen.
• A pass over every screen at the largest accessibility
  text sizes. Buttons, labels and questions that used to
  overlap or get cut off now hold their shape.

### 1.1 — 2026-09-11

iPad
Sward is laid out properly on iPad now. Cards and text sit in a readable column instead of stretching the full width of the screen.

Smaller things
• You can rate Sward from Settings.

### 1.0 — 2026-09-10

No release notes.
