The world's first iOS app built for carnivorous plant collectors. Track your Nepenthes, Venus flytraps, Sarracenia, Drosera, Heliamphora, Cephalotus and more — with fields designed specifically for carnivores: pitcher size, feeding response, water type, and humidity. Replace your spreadsheet grow list with something that fits in your pocket. 【What You Can Do】 ▷ Plant Collection Register each plant with genus, species, clone name, source, acquisition date, price, and cover photo. Every entry in your grow list, organized as a proper ledger. ▷ Photo Timeline Add unlimited photos per plant from camera or library. Watch the growth of each pitcher, leaf, or trap unfold over time. ▷ Feeding Log Record prey type (fruit fly, mealworm, cricket, bloodworm, liquid fertilizer, other), size, trap used, whether it responded, and response time. Know which plants are catching well — and which need attention. ▷ Care Environment (per plant) Log setup type (terrarium, greenhouse, windowsill, outdoor), light source (LED, fluorescent, sunlight), and water type (distilled, rainwater, RO). Designed for carnivores — fertilizer is not on the list. ▷ Environment Log (Pro) Daily records of temperature high/low, humidity percentage, and light hours. Track the seasonal conditions that matter for highland Nepenthes and Heliamphora. ▷ Growth Chart (Pro) Pitcher size over time, plotted as a line chart per plant. See the trend from the day you acquired it. ▷ Share Card Generate a card with your plant's photo, species, clone name, pitcher size, growing status, and days tracked — and share it directly to Reddit, Instagram, or X. Free users get a "Tracked with TrapNote" watermark; Pro removes it. ▷ Wishlist Keep your must-have species list. Add source, target price, and notes. Never lose track of a species you're hunting. ▷ Trade Flags (Pro) Mark plants as available for trade and add a note on what you're looking for in exchange. Useful when posting to r/SavageGarden or TerraForums trade threads. ▷ CSV / ZIP Export & Import Export your full collection as CSV, or as a ZIP with photos. Import CSV or ZIP to restore data. Available on the free plan. 【Who It's For】 · Nepenthes collectors with highland setups or terrariums · Venus flytrap and Sarracenia growers tracking pitcher size season by season · Anyone maintaining a grow list in a spreadsheet or Notion · Community members who post their collection to r/carnivorousplants, Instagram, or X 【Your Data Stays on Your Device】 All data is saved locally on your iPhone. Nothing is sent to external servers. No account required. No subscription. No risk if a service shuts down. 【Pricing】 · Free: Up to 10 plants. Photo timeline, feeding logs, wishlist, share cards (with watermark), and CSV/ZIP export & import are all free. · TrapNote Pro (one-time purchase): $6.99. Unlimited plants + environment logs + growth charts + trade flags + watermark-free share cards. Pay once, yours forever. ---------------------- Developer: Kore Apps Contact: support@kore-apps.com ----------------------

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Bridestory at none against TrapNote's 1. Bridestory also leads on ratings volume (51 vs 2) and iOS requirement (10.3 vs 15.0). TrapNote's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.6). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. TrapNote sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Bridestory asks for nothing beyond the download.
TrapNote holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Bridestory has 51 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.
Bridestory ships an update fortnightly, TrapNote every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 6, 2026 and October 15, 2026 respectively.
