Ceke started with an orchid and a kind neighbour. When she gifted me one for my birthday, I warned her honestly. I had killed every orchid I'd ever owned. Without missing a beat, she offered to come down and care for it herself. That moment stuck with me. What if an app could do what she did? Teach me how to care for my plants, and step in for a friend when I was away. That's Ceke. The plant care app that actually helps you keep your plants alive. Whether you're a beginner with one succulent or a collector with dozens of plants, Ceke makes it easy to know exactly what your plants need and when. IDENTIFY ANY PLANT (PREMIUM) Point your camera at a plant and Ceke tells you what it is, then builds a care schedule around that plant rather than a generic one. SMART CARE SCHEDULES Watering, light and fertilizing reminders shaped around each plant. Ceke keeps track of what's been done and what's coming up, so nothing quietly slips. AI PLANT ASSISTANT (PREMIUM) Chat with an AI that actually knows plants. Ask why the leaves are yellowing, which fertilizer to use, whether that spot gets too much sun, and get a real answer about your plant instead of a general one. WEATHER SMART CARE Ceke adjusts its care suggestions to the real weather where you are. Heatwave coming? You'll know before your plants do. FULL CARE HISTORY A complete log of every watering, feeding and light check, so you always know when you last looked after a plant. SHARE WITH A CAREGIVER Going away? Send a care link to a friend or plant sitter and they'll know exactly what to do. They don't need to download anything. TIMELY REMINDERS Never forget to water again. Ceke nudges you when a plant needs attention. WHAT'S FREE Up to 5 plants, with the full care schedule, reminders, care history, weather smart care and caregiver sharing.
