No internet needed, even at remote dark sky sites. 【What You Can Do】 ▷ Observation Log Record object name, object type (planet, moon, star, nebula, cluster, comet, meteor & more), date/time, location, seeing (1–5), transparency (1–5), notes, and photos.

Your plants deserve a home. Give them a tiny pixel one. Leafy turns a photo of your plant into a pixel plant and a photo of your room into a pixel room. Put the plants wherever you like, drag them from room to room, and let Leafy remind you when it's time to water. TAKE A PHOTO, GET A PIXEL PLANT Point the camera at your monstera, your sad little cactus, the fern you keep forgetting. Leafy cuts the plant out of the photo and redraws it as pixel art, right on your device. No upload, no waiting. YOUR OWN ROOM, IN PIXELS Photograph a corner of your home and Leafy redraws it: wall, floor, window, your couch, your shelf, your lamp — in the colours of the photo. Then rearrange everything in the room editor until it feels right. A HOME THAT FOLLOWS THE DAY The window shows the real sky. Morning light, blue afternoon, dusk, and at night the lamps glow while the rest of the room falls asleep. Nothing to set up — it just follows your clock. WATERING, WITHOUT THE GUILT Set an interval per plant. Leafy sends one gentle reminder on the day, tips the watering can, and little hearts float up. Forget for too long and the plant droops — until you make it up to it. QUIET BY DESIGN No account. No cloud. No ads, no tracking, no analytics. Everything — your rooms, your plants, your photos — stays on your device and works offline. Photos are turned into pixels locally and never stored. ONE-TIME PURCHASE Try it with one room and three plants. Unlock everything once, for 5.99 €. No subscription, ever. Available in 14 languages.
