Watering that fits into a Tuesday
Nine plants don’t need nine reminders. LeafRanger groups them by how thirsty they actually are, then tells you once — at the moment the group is genuinely due, adjusted for the weather you’re having.
every 4 days
every 9 days
every 3 weeks
The same plant needs water on different days
A fixed weekly reminder is a guess that never updates. Press a forecast and watch what happens to the plan.
Hot and dry means faster evaporation, so the whole group is pulled TWO DAYS EARLIER. You'll be told on Thursday, not Saturday.
One reminder, at the moment it’s useful
Not a daily 9am ping you learn to swipe away without reading. A reminder fires when a group is genuinely due — and if you’ve already watered, it doesn’t fire at all.
- Per group, not per plant. Nine plants can’t generate nine notifications.
- Quiet hours are respected — nothing buzzes at 2am because a schedule said so.
- Scheduled on your device, so reminders work even with no signal.
- Notifications off? You get one quiet card in the app explaining what you’re missing — with a “don’t remind me again” that we actually honour.

Nine plants, one week
A reminder per plant sounds thorough until you own nine of them. Same garden, same week — the difference is only how the reminders are batched.
You stop reading them by Wednesday, and mute the app by Friday.
Two trips to the tap. Both of them worth getting up for.
That’s arithmetic from the example garden above — nine plants across three groups — not a study. Your numbers depend on your plants, but the shape of it doesn’t change: batching is what keeps a reminder worth reading.
Ninety days you didn’t have to remember
Every watering, feed, repot and diagnosis lands on the plant’s timeline the moment it happens. Not a habit tracker you have to maintain — a record that’s just there when a question comes up.
- Watering
- Feeding
- Repotting
- Diagnosis
This is the memory Herb reads when you ask why the leaves are yellowing — and the reason he can tell overwatering from thirst instead of guessing between them.
No plant is thirsty enough to wake you
Set the window you don’t want to hear from us and nothing crosses it. A reminder that would have landed at 3am simply waits until the morning — it doesn’t vanish, and it doesn’t buzz.

In-app only
Every category is separately switchable — watering, health and weather, community, orders. Turn off what you don’t want without losing what you do.
Miss a day and nothing turns red
Most care apps punish a gap — a broken streak, a scolding badge, a plant that “needs attention” forever. Yours just re-times itself.
Everything on track. Press “I forgot” to see what a missed day does to the plan.
Nothing here shames you for a fortnight away, and the schedule never treats a gap as a failure. Overdue groups simply show up on Today when you next open the app.

Reminders work · server alerts pending
Your watering reminders fire on iOS exactly as they do on Android — they're scheduled on the device itself. What's still coming is server-sent alerts, which need an Apple developer account we'll open at launch.
Everything people ask about reminders
How does it know when my plant needs water?
It starts from the species' own watering need in our catalogue, then adjusts for the live weather where you are and what's actually happened to that plant. A hot dry week pulls the date earlier; a cool damp one pushes it back.
Will it nag me all day?
No. Reminders fire per watering group rather than per plant, and only when a group is genuinely due — nine plants across three groups means two or three reminders a week, not twenty-three.
Do reminders work without internet?
Yes. They're scheduled on your device, so they fire whether or not you have signal. Your phone doesn't need to reach us to tell you a plant is thirsty.
What if I water early, or forget entirely?
Log it and the schedule re-times from when you actually watered. Miss a day and nothing turns red — the next reminder simply moves, and overdue groups show up on the Today screen when you next open the app.
Can I stop notifications at night?
Yes — set quiet hours and nothing crosses that window. You can also switch categories independently: watering, health and weather, community, and orders are all separate.
Does this work on iPhone?
Watering reminders do, yes — they're scheduled on the device itself, so iOS and Android behave the same way. Server-sent alerts are Android-only for now; they need an Apple developer account we'll open at launch.
What if I say no to notifications?
The app still works — you'll just see what's due when you open it. You'll get one quiet card explaining what you're missing, with a “don't remind me again” we genuinely honour, and Settings always shows the current status if you change your mind.
