GROW A PLANT. Your hydration lives as a plant. Every sip feeds it. As you drink through the day, Planty grows from an empty pot to a full bloom. Hit your daily goal and Planty celebrates — a halo, ripples, sparkles in your plant's own colors. Miss a day and Planty droops. Miss two and Planty wilts. The moment you log any water, Planty springs back to life. DESIGN YOUR PLANT Planty is yours. Pick a pot shape and color. Choose a stem — straight, curved, or winding vine. Add leaves in four shapes. Enable a flower and pick its petals. Name it. Rename it whenever you want. A LIVING WORLD AROUND YOUR PLANT Planty breathes and sways while you watch. Leaf colors shift with the real-world season — warm yellow in summer, amber in autumn, cool blue-grey in winter.

Only once a year. Only for you. Nothing you earn ever leaves. Your day-three butterfly is still orbiting at day 365, the day the monarch arrives.
