## What is PlantNotes?

PlantNotes is a native plant journal and care-schedule manager built for plant lovers, succulent collectors, and home gardeners. No social noise, no sign-up — just a clean, intuitive way to care for every plant and capture the moments of new leaves and blooms.

[My Garden · Plant Profiles]
• Detailed records: log each plant's name, custom code (like LL01, DR01), variety, growing method (soil, water, semi-hydroponics and more) and spot (balcony, bookshelf, counter and more).
• Full life cycle: archive plants as Growing, Dormant, Gifted, Sold or Lost with one-tap filters, keeping the whole journey from purchase to companionship.
• Flexible views & search: switch between an HD photo grid and a compact list, find plants by name, variety or growing method, and see today's watering badge right on the card.
• A personal home: customize your home title and app icon to build a pocket botanical garden of your own.

[Care Tasks · Smart Reminders]
• Independent schedules: set watering and photo intervals for each plant based on its habits.
• Today's to-dos: daily watering and photo tasks are gathered automatically — no more forgetting or watering by guesswork.
• Check in & snooze: one tap logs the care, writes the journal and rolls the next reminder; rainy day or still-wet soil? Snooze the task in one tap.

[Stats & Ledger · Know Your Spending]
• Garden overview: live counts of growing, dormant, gifted and sold plants.
• Expense ledger: tap "+ Add" to record seedlings, pots, soil and fertilizer costs or sales income, with running totals and a clear transaction list.
• Care frequency chart: a 6-month bar chart of care activity to look back on your diligent months.

[AI Assistant · Plant ID & Care Advisor]
• Friendly Q&A: connect your AI assistant to ask about plant species, yellow leaves, root rot and seasonal watering and feeding.

[Offline First · Private & Secure]
• 100% local storage: photos, care records and ledger stay on your device — no cloud, works fully offline.
• Backup & migrate: export an encrypted backup (photos, records, home title and AI settings included) and restore it on a new phone with ease.
