Read full description

A serious management app for caudex plants, agaves, and staghorn ferns. When did I last water that one? Once you're growing dozens of plants, it's easy to lose track of watering. BotaCodex is a management tool for caudex and succulent enthusiasts, where AI suggests the right watering based on each species and your own records. ■ Key Features ▼ AI Watering Suggestions From species, season, growing environment, and your past records, AI suggests watering tailored to each of your plants — accounting for seasonal phases like dormancy and active growth. ▼ Family Tree & Lineage Link plants grown from division, seed, or cuttings to their parent plants. Trace lineage across generations with a family tree that also handles crosses with multiple parents and backcrosses. Viewing the family tree is free; linking to a parent is a Pro feature. ▼ AI Photo Consultation (Pro) Share a photo with symptoms like "looking weak lately" or "leaves dropping" and consult AI about your plant. ▼ QR Tag Generation (Pro) / Scan (Free) Generate and print a QR code for each plant. Stick it on the pot and scan to open that plant's details instantly (scanning is free). And when you pass a plant on to someone, they just scan the QR to inherit it — watering, growth, and photo records included. The time you've invested carries over (transfer). ▼ Memorial & AI Loss Analysis (Pro) Record plants you've sadly lost. AI analyzes the cause and keeps it as a lesson so you don't repeat the same mistake (AI analysis is Pro). ■ A Professional Management Experience, In Your Hand A calm, dark-mode-unified interface. Designed for observing, recording, and analyzing your plants — a serious management experience. Its spacious, refined layout keeps managing dozens of plants comfortable. ■ Plans ▼ Free Unlimited plant registration Watering alerts for up to 5 plants 3 AI consultations per month Family tree viewing In-app notifications ▼ Pro ¥500/month or ¥5,000/year (2 months free) Unlimited watering alerts Push notifications 30 AI consultations per month AI photo consultation AI loss analysis QR tag generation & transfer Family tree lineage linking Bulk watering & snooze ■ Requirements iPhone & iPad iOS 13.0 or later ■ Contact support@botacodex.jp Privacy Policy: https://botacodex.jp/privacy-policy Terms of Service: https://botacodex.jp/terms-of-service
