## What is Plant Identifier?

Plantmaxxer is your all-in-one pocket botanist. Snap a photo to identify plants, mushrooms, weeds and insects, diagnose plant problems, check pet safety, and keep every plant thriving with smart, personal care.

Whether you are a seasoned gardener, an indoor plant lover, or a brand-new plant parent, Plantmaxxer helps you understand what you find and know exactly what to do next.

IDENTIFY ANYTHING GREEN (AND MORE)

► PLANT IDENTIFIER — 390,000+ SPECIES
Identify plants, flowers, trees and succulents in seconds. Use up to 3 photos (leaf, flower, stem) for more accurate results, see confidence and similar matches, and tap "Not right?" to help us improve.

► MUSHROOM IDENTIFIER & LOOKALIKE GUIDE
Get a possible match with its key features, habitat and season fit, a risk status, and the dangerous lookalikes it can be confused with. Mushroom results are educational and may be inaccurate. Never eat a wild mushroom based on an app result.

► WEED, INSECT & PEST IDENTIFIER
Find out which weed is taking over and how to remove it, whether a bug is helpful or harmful in your garden, and which pest is damaging your plant.

► SAFETY FOR PEOPLE AND PETS
See whether a plant may be toxic to children, adults, cats or dogs, plus warnings about look-alike species.

KEEP YOUR PLANTS HEALTHY

► PLANT DOCTOR & TREATMENT PLANS
Scan yellowing, wilting or spotted leaves to spot possible diseases and pests. Turn the diagnosis into a step-by-step treatment plan with reminders, then re-scan a week later to compare before and after.

► SMART WATERING
Watering intervals adapt to your pot size and material, soil, light, season and your own feedback ("soil was still wet"), so you water at the right time, not on a guess.

► SMART CARE REMINDERS
Water, mist, fertilize, prune, repot, treat, or create your own tasks. Pick the time, snooze when life gets busy, and mark tasks done right from the notification or the home screen widget.

► WEATHER ALERTS FOR OUTDOOR PLANTS
Skip watering when rain is on the way and get frost and heat warnings for plants on your balcony or in your garden.

► CALIBRATED LIGHT METER
Measure light in lux and foot-candles with your camera and see whether a spot suits your plant.

ORGANIZE AND GROW

► MY GARDEN
Add plants with their room, pot, soil and light. Search, filter and group your collection by room.

► PLANT JOURNAL
Log photos, notes, height and leaf count, follow growth on a chart, and compare before-and-after photos.

► SEASON CALENDAR & VEGETABLE PLANNER
See what to sow, prune and harvest each month for your climate, and plan your vegetable beds square by square.

► FINDS MAP & NEARBY SPECIES
Save where you found something, see your finds on a map, and discover species recorded near you.

► WIDGETS & SIRI SHORTCUTS
See today's care on your home or lock screen and ask Siri to scan a plant, measure light or mark a plant as watered.

► LEARN & EARN BADGES
Short care guides, quick quizzes, care streaks and badges help you become a more confident plant parent.

► AI BOTANIST
Ask follow-up questions about your plants and get friendly, practical answers.
