### 5/5 — Great simple app

*2026-07-04, version 2.8.2*

Works well, best I could find. Highly Recommend.

### 5/5 — A god send

*2026-05-11, version 2.8.2*

Thank you so much for making this app and sharing it with everyone. I have a hard time keeping track of all my plants and remembering when I last watered them. This app is so helpful and is much needed for someone with ADHD like me.

### 5/5 — Great find

*2026-02-10, version 2.8.2*

This app is the best FREE app for keeping track with the UX well polished. Only realised there were paid extra by digging around in the app but they aren’t required for the basic reminders. Get this app and no other, it’s also cheaper if you do decide to financially support the generous designer.

### 5/5 — Needed this!

*2025-12-27, version 2.8.2*

Great FREE app to remind me to  water my plants

### 5/5 — Massive help

*2025-10-30, version 2.8.2*

I have ADHD and sometimes it’s hard to remember to do things. This app has been a massive help and although my garden isn’t massive yet it has a white grape vine, pumpkin vine, pineapple plant and two aloe Vera’s that are strong, deep rooted and beautiful thanks to this app telling me when to water, fertilize and check for pruning. Thank you so much WaterMe!!!!!!!!!

### 5/5 — Brilliant

*2025-10-18, version 2.8.2*

Great idea and very simple looking and intuitive app :)

### 5/5 — Simple and Solid

*2025-08-17, version 2.8.2*

It doesn’t do a lot.   You take a picture of your plant, you set a schedule to water and you will get reminders.    But if that’s all you need, then it works well and is easy to use.

### 5/5 — Wonderful free app

*2025-05-16, version 2.8.2*

This app is fantastic and free. Can’t ask a lot of a free app but if I did, it could use the ability to change the date of when you completed the task (in case you forgot day of) and also if you could do “XX times a week” it would take it from a great app to an amazing app.

### 5/5 — Love

*2025-03-13, version 2.8.2*

I love this app. I’ve used it for many many years helping me keep track of my plants. It’s a beautifully simple UI and such a pleasure to use. I owed this app a review a long time ago!

### 5/5 — Easy schedule with reminders!!!

*2024-12-17, version 2.8.2*

I was looking for a simple and free watering schedule for my plants (that offered more than 3 plants) and this app has exceeded my expectations. I’m able to take a picture of all my plants, name them, and have them all on different water schedules. I look forward to continuing using the app to care for my plants.
