## What is PlantCare?

PlantCare+ is always there for your plants!
With one photo, you'll learn how to identify a plant, how often to water it, and why that leaf turned brown — plus exactly what to do about it.

We've packed in the features every green thumb falls in love with:

► Plant Identifier

Point your camera at any plant and our AI identifies it in seconds — common name, scientific name, genus, and popular cultivars across 10,000+ species. Houseplants, succulents, flowers, veggies, garden plants: if it grows, we'll name it. Every identification comes with a complete care guide the moment it lands.

► Dr. PlantCare — Plant Doctor

Yellow leaves? Brown spots? Drooping stems? Snap a photo of the problem and Dr. PlantCare diagnoses the disease, tells you how serious it is, and writes you a step-by-step treatment plan — rake, prune, repot, recover. It even checks back in a few days to see how your patient is doing.

► Smart Care Plans

Plantkeeping becomes effortless with a personalized care plan for every plant you add: watering cadence, light needs, temperature, humidity, fertilizing, and pruning guidance. Our smart schedules adjust month by month with the seasons — so your watering routine is right in July and in January.

► Light Meter

Not sure if that corner is bright enough? Tap the Light Meter and point your camera — it reads the light in real time, shows where you are on the spectrum, and tells you whether your plant should move to a brighter or shadier spot.

► Care Reminders

Never miss a watering again. Gentle reminders keep every plant on schedule, and after a diagnosis we'll nudge you at just the right moment to check on the treatment.

► Pet & Child Safety

Cats, dogs, or little explorers at home? Every identification instantly flags whether a plant is toxic, so you know before it comes through the door.

► Your Garden, Your Sites

Organize plants by where they live — living room, balcony, patio, garden bed. Track health over time, log care, add notes and photos, and share a beautiful page of your garden with friends so they can meet your plants too.

PlantCare+ was made to give every plant a name, a doctor, and a plan — whether you're rescuing your first pothos or running a patio full of tomatoes. Let's grow something good together.
