Groundskeeper
Read full descriptionHide full description
Groundskeeper is the care-first way to keep your whole yard thriving: raised beds, vegetables, houseplants, lawn, trees, and shrubs, all in one place. Instead of another static garden diagram, Groundskeeper is built around a simple daily question: what needs doing today? Your home screen is a Today checklist that surfaces every watering, feeding, mowing, and inspection the moment it's due, so nothing slips. WHAT YOU CAN DO Today checklist. See what's due and overdue at a glance, check it off, or push it a day. Rain likely tomorrow? Groundskeeper flags it so you can skip the watering. Snap to identify. Point your camera at a plant to identify it, check a mystery bug, or diagnose a sick leaf. Groundskeeper turns the answer into a real care plan with scheduled tasks. Care plans that remember for you. Every plant, crop, and yard feature gets a recurring care schedule. Water every 2 days, mow every 5, inspect for pests every 2 weeks, and it all lands on your Today list automatically. Map your beds. Lay out raised beds and what's planted in each zone, with an optional satellite view of your actual property. Track soil pH. Log readings per bed or yard feature and watch them trend over time. Local weather, built in. Set your location once and get local highs, rain outlooks, and watering guidance. Reminders. Optional notifications so due tasks find you. Groundskeeper is free, has no ads, and never sells your data.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Groundskeeper at Free against HOGSCAN's $0.99. Groundskeeper also leads on update cadence (every 4 days vs every 5 months). HOGSCAN's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and chart position (#124 vs unranked). On ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
