## What is Plant Buddha?

Plant Buddha keeps your houseplants happy without keeping a diary.

NEVER FORGET TO WATER
Every plant gets its own watering schedule. Plant Buddha stretches it as days get shorter, shortens it in a heat wave, and suggests a pace that fits how you really water. Tap "Not yet" when the soil is still damp, and it checks again in a couple of days. Get a reminder at the time you choose, one per task or a single daily summary, and switch on Away mode when you travel.

KNOW WHAT EACH PLANT NEEDS
Care plans cover light, humidity, fertilizer, misting, pruning, repotting, rotating and wiping leaves, plus your own tasks like "check for pests". Group plants by room, search and filter, and see at a glance what is thirsty today. A Home Screen widget lets you log a watering with one tap.

AN AI PLANT HELPER (PLANT BUDDHA PLUS)
- Identify a plant from a photo
- Check a leaf for problems and get treatment steps
- Write a care plan for almost any species
- Ask questions about a specific plant: it knows the schedule, recent care, the weather and its health history
AI answers are a helpful guess, not a guarantee. Always check the soil and look for pests before acting.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
No account. Your plants and photos stay on your device. A photo or plant details are sent for AI help only when you use an AI feature, and only after you say yes. No ads, no tracking.

MORE
- Back up and restore your plants
- Plant-sitter guide: a printable page for whoever waters while you are away
- Pet-safe filter
- Large text, VoiceOver and dark mode supported

## Version history (last 2 releases)

### 1.1 — 2026-11-11

Made for iPhone Duo. Open it like a book and Home becomes two pages: what is due on one, your plants on the other. Every plant opens in two panes (on iPad held sideways too). Stand the Duo on a desk and the plants stay up while what to do lies flat below, and "Ask about this plant" becomes a check-up.

For every iPhone: a plant you delete stays in Recently Deleted for 30 days, so you can bring it back. Ask Siri to "Water the monstera in Plant Buddha" or "What needs water in Plant Buddha". The buttons in the top bars are now icons, and a gentle tap confirms each task you log (you can turn that off in Settings).

### 1.0 — 2026-11-05
