GrowWise vs SoundSentry

GrowWise turns your real garden into a living plan: beds to the square foot, a seed box you actually use, and companion planting you can see. Tap a plant. See what belongs beside it. New Companion Mode lets you compare several plants at once and find seeds that work with all of them. PLAN BEDS LIKE THE REAL THING Create raised beds by width and length in feet. Plant vegetables and herbs on a 1-foot grid, undo freely, and keep multiple gardens for different yards or seasons. PLANT WHAT GROWS WELL TOGETHER Green rings mark companions. Red rings mark plants to keep apart. Filter the Seed Box to companions of a plant in the bed—or use Companion Mode to find seeds compatible with a whole grouping. PLANT ON TIME FOR YOUR ZONE Set your location to load USDA growing zone plus last and first frost dates. The planting calendar shows when to start indoors, direct sow, and transplant. Filter seeds by Start now, Sow now, or Transplant now. KEEP A GARDEN YOU CAN TAKE OUTSIDE Open inventory for a seed list, growing notes, and symbol key you can print. Track plantings from seed to harvest, and save seed for next year. GrowWise is built for home vegetable gardeners who want a plan that matches the soil they actually have. Free includes one garden bed (up to 10×10 ft) and the full seed catalog. GrowWise Premium unlocks unlimited beds, larger beds, and custom seeds.

Stay focused. Let important sounds come to you. SoundSentry listens in the background (microphone permission required) and uses iOS Sound Analysis to recognize common household sounds. When a selected sound is detected—like a baby crying, a dog barking, or a knock at the door—SoundSentry immediately sends a local notification so you can respond without taking off your headphones. Great for Working/studying at home with ANC headphones Baby care: crying alerts and other cues Pet care: barking or unusual activity Home awareness: knocks and other events Key Features Choose what to detect: baby cry, dog bark, knocking, and more (availability depends on iOS support) Instant local notifications: get alerted the moment a target sound is detected Privacy-first design: analysis is intended to run on-device (no model training needed) Permissions Microphone: to listen and analyze sounds Notifications: to alert you when a target sound is detected No account required. Disclaimer: Detection accuracy depends on distance, noise level, and device placement. For best results, place the device near the monitored area.
