## What is Spruit?

Keep your plants alive, for once.

Spruit is the plant-care companion that tells you exactly when each plant is thirsty, what's wrong when a leaf turns, and how to keep everything thriving through every season.

POINT, SHOOT, IDENTIFY
Point your camera at any plant and Spruit ranks the top three species matches with confidence scores, then auto-fills a complete care profile: watering rhythm, feeding schedule, light needs and pot guidance.

A PLAN THAT FITS EACH PLANT
Every plant gets its own watering and feeding cadence, tuned per season, not a one-size-fits-all alarm. Just a gentle nudge the moment a plant is actually thirsty, never a day too early.

CLIMATE-AWARE SCHEDULING
Spruit watches your local weather and season for you. Watering shifts automatically when rain rolls in or a heatwave settles, so the plan always matches the real world outside your window.

PLANT DOCTOR
Yellow leaves? Spots? Drooping? Snap the symptom and Spruit suggests the most likely cause, and the simplest fix to try first.

ONE LIST, SORTED BY WHO NEEDS WATER NEXT
All your plants in one scrollable list, ordered by who needs water next. Tick off care with a tap and watch your streaks build.

SHARED GARDENS
Invite anyone with a link. Roommates, family, your whole household — everyone sees the same plants, history and schedule, so a plant never gets watered twice or forgotten.

EARN AS YOU CARE
Care for your plants, level up and earn cosmetic packs to dress up your collection. Earned through care, never a checkout.

Made with care in the Netherlands.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.7.2 — 2026-08-23

Fixes:
• The "all of today's care is done" notification to your household sometimes didn't send — especially after rain had taken care of some plants overnight. Fixed.
• The notification now also works without restarting the app the next day.

### 1.7.1 — 2026-08-21

New:
• When someone finishes all of today's plant care, the rest of the household gets a push — done is done for everyone.
• After your first plant, a quick tip shows how shared gardens work.

Recent updates:
• Quick mode: tick plants off and log them in one go.
• Tap the clock to delay a task — the schedule moves with it.
• New Care timeline: what's coming up, and what's done.
• The plant doctor gives one clear fix.
• Rain that falls today counts — no watering reminders in the rain.

### 1.5.0 — 2026-07-21

We've made the free plan clearer and adding plants smoother, with a few thoughtful touches along the way. Thanks for growing with us!

### 1.4.5 — 2026-07-09

Fixed a sync issue where watering several plants at once and then quickly closing the app could lose some of those logs. Plants you just watered no longer reappear as overdue the next day.

### 1.4.4 — 2026-06-27

Watering reminders now move up sooner during hot spells, so your plants don't dry out in a heatwave.
