## What is Thrive?

Thrive tracks how your plants grow — especially cacti and caudex plants, the ones that change so slowly you can't tell by looking.

The problem isn't that people don't photograph their plants. It's that every shot is from a different angle. Six months later your camera roll is a pile of photos you can't compare.

That's what Thrive fixes.

THREE WAYS TO LINE UP THE SHOT

· Ghost overlay
Your last photo sits semi-transparent over the live viewfinder. Move the phone until the plant lines up with the ghost, then shoot — the two frames match.

· Angle guide
Thrive reads your phone's pitch and roll and compares them to the angle saved with your last photo. It tells you which way to tilt, and gives a light haptic tap when you're lined up, so your eyes never leave the viewfinder.

· Composition grid
A rule-of-thirds grid plus an optional reference box, so the pot lands in the same spot every time.

ONE TIMELINE

Growth photos and waterings sit together in one chronological list. Every entry can carry a note, and each one is tagged with how many days it's been since you got the plant. Tap any photo to pinch-zoom into the detail, or save it back to your own photo library. Notes stay editable afterwards.

WATERING, LOGGED SIMPLY

Tap once when you water. The card then reads "3 days ago." Snap a photo while you're at it, or don't. No schedules, no reminders — when a cactus needs water depends on the pot, the weather and the plant. That's your call, not an alarm's.

PRIVACY

No account, no server, no analytics. Your photos and records never leave your phone.
