Move. Grow. Bloom. Shine. Turn your daily movement into a thriving garden. Track steps, standing time, and time in sunshine while watching beautiful plants grow with every healthy choice you make. Choose from more than 20 plants within the six biomes - Forest, Desert, Tropical, Arctic, Marine, and Mystical - and watch as your garden grows along with you. Each plant has 3 or 4 stages that you unlock with your movement. Watch in real time as you and your garden grow together. Active Grow focuses on building a healthy life into your every day, rather than having to work your whole life around your health. As you hit health and garden milestones within the app, you can collect more than 40 Achievement badges in your Field Guide. We believe that balance and health should be accessible to everyone. Active Grow has a one-time fee of $3.99 but NO monthly fees and NO advertising within the app. We believe that privacy is a part of wellness. Active Grow collects NO data. Your data stays on your phone and never goes anywhere. This does mean that if you delete your garden's growth, we cannot restore progress for you. Time in sunshine is based upon functionality built into the Apple Watch and requires iOS 17+ and watchOS 10+.
