An iPhone app that puts a small living scene on your home screen. Your step count moves it along. A seed sprouts, buds form, and the flower opens — one stage at a time, from walking alone. Keep the day itself too: where you went and what the weather was. Every plant is modelled in 3D. Turn one with a finger and look at it from the side or the back. The pot follows the real world, and the light shifts in direction and colour as the hours pass. ■ What you can do • A plant on your home screen: the time, the date, your steps, and the plant as it stands today • A walking diary: keep a day, with the place and the weather beside it • 21 plants from around the world: Violet, Shepherd's Purse, Rose, Tulip, Daisy, Lavender, Sunflower, Poppy, Columnar Cactus, Lily of the Valley, Baby Blue Eyes, Japanese Morning Glory, Money Tree, Japanese Maple, Cherry Blossom, Baobab, Ginkgo, Hydrangea, Cosmos, Narcissus, Pansy • Six stages from sprout to full bloom, moved only by your steps • A collection shelf, in 3D, where finished plants stand side by side • Where each one comes from, and what ten of the flowers have traditionally meant • Choose the pot: unglazed terracotta or white porcelain • Choose the typeface from four • Light through the day: morning to evening, and a lamp after dark • Weather in the scene: clear, cloudy, and rain each look different • Automatic step counting through Apple Health ■ Who it's for • Anyone who would like something quiet to show for the walking • Anyone tired of a step counter that is only a number • Anyone who wants their home screen to look like their own • Anyone drawn to plants and trees from around the world • Anyone worn out by pushy notifications and ads • Anyone looking for a collection app that stays calm ■ How one pot goes 1. Connect Apple Health and your steps are counted automatically 2. Keep the day in the diary, with its place and weather 3. Six stages, from first sprout to full bloom, moved only by walking 4. The finished plant joins the shelf 5. Plant the next one and keep collecting ■ Privacy Step data is read from Apple Health and processed on your device. ■ Support Terms of Use: https://northern-mouse-e7d.notion.site/3303cdf5c4fe80e29a70e94a9beb650f?source=copy_link Privacy Policy: https://northern-mouse-e7d.notion.site/32e3cdf5c4fe8057932aed235b5c9d38?source=copy_link Every day's walking changes what's on your screen.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: 旅 at none against Ayumigusa's 4. 旅 also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 26.2). Ayumigusa's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 3 weeks). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
