Nurture: Plant Care & Watering

Less guessing. More growing.

Nurture reminds you when to water, fertilize and repot each houseplant, tells you what each one needs, and uses AI to identify a plant or find out what is wrong with it from a photo. Watering reminders need no account, no sign-up, no card, and arrive even with the app closed and no connection.

Nurture counts which features get used, anonymously and never with your account, so I can tell what is worth building next. You can turn that off in Settings.

Add a houseplant, choose what it needs and how often, and Nurture reminds you at your chosen time. Mark it done and the next reminder schedules itself.

WHAT YOU CAN DO

• Set reminders for watering, fertilizing, pruning, repotting, rotating, and cleaning leaves, or write your own
• Choose any interval, in days, weeks, or months, at whatever time of day suits you
• See everything due today on a single screen
• Care early when it suits you: water three days early and the next reminder moves with it
• Keep a photo of each houseplant
• Organize houseplants into spaces: living room, balcony, office, windowsill
• Look back at what you did and when, and fix anything you forgot to mark

KNOW WHAT YOUR HOUSEPLANT ACTUALLY NEEDS

Apps that tell you what a houseplant needs usually charge for it. This one does not.

Choose your houseplant's species when you add it and you get a written guide to it: how it behaves in a living room, what light and water it wants, and what to do about repotting, pruning and cleaning the leaves.

The advice comes with its conditions attached, because an interval on its own is wrong half the year. "Every seven days" means one thing on a south-facing sill in July and something else in a cold room in January. So the guide tells you what to actually look at: how far down the soil is dry, the weight of the pot, what the newest leaf is doing.

It covers the houseplants people actually keep: monstera, pothos, snake plant, peace lily, fiddle leaf fig, ZZ plant, calathea, string of pearls, jade plant, spider plant, rubber plant, hoya, alocasia, moth orchids, succulents and cacti. Even the ones that punish a sensible guess, like orchids that will not flower again without a cold autumn.

A guide page needs a connection the first time you open it, then it is kept on your device.

WHAT'S WRONG WITH MY HOUSEPLANT?

Photograph what looks wrong, and Nurture suggests the likely cause, weighed against how the houseplant has been looked after: when it was last watered, fed or moved. You get what to do now, and when the schedule is the cause, a new one in one tap. Ten days later it asks how it is doing. It says how sure it is, and when the photo cannot show enough, it says that too.

It never changes a schedule without asking.

IDENTIFY A HOUSEPLANT FROM A PHOTO

Not sure what you have? Take a photo, and Nurture suggests what the houseplant is and opens its page in the guide, so you can add it with the right care from the start. It says how sure it is, and when a look-alike cannot be ruled out, it shows you that one too.

AI identification and diagnosis need a free account, made with Apple or Google: 3 identifications and 1 diagnosis a month. Everything else works without one. Photos sent are not kept.

YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS

Save everything into one backup file, photos included, and restore it on a new phone.

PREMIUM, IF YOU WANT IT

Premium is optional, and everything above works without it. It adds diagnosis and identification with no monthly limit, backup and sync, so your houseplants follow you to any phone, and caretakers for when you are away. A Household plan lets up to five people care for the same houseplants and see who watered.

It needs an account. Your houseplants, notes and photos are kept on our servers only if you subscribe or join a household, and seen only by people you share them with. If a subscription ends, nothing is deleted.
