v1.2
Proof your care is working.
A smarter AI, more consistent health scores, and a brand-new AI Care Plan for the plants that need extra help. Below is a preview of what's coming.
Preview, not yet shipped. Features below are in active development and subject to change before release.
A smarter, faster AI.
A newer model, smaller payloads, and analysis that returns in seconds instead of the long pause you sometimes see today.
Image compression for quicker results
Photos are resized before the AI looks at them, so analysis comes back in seconds rather than waiting around for a multi-second spinner.
Consistent, explainable health scores.
The score is the y-axis of your plant's story. We're making it stable enough to actually trust over time.
Same photo, same score
Today, re-opening the app can occasionally produce a slightly different score for a photo you've already taken. v1.2 locks the score in: the same photo always returns the same number, every time.
One-line explanations
Every score now comes with a short, plain-language note about what the AI saw, like “84 · leaves firm, slight tip-browning.” So you know not just the number, but why.
AI Care Plan.
A brand-new feature for plants that need extra help. When a plant's score drops, PlantAI can build it a personalised recovery plan.
Get a Care Plan
When a plant's health drops below 75 percent, a Get Care Plan button appears on its Plant Profile. Tap it and PlantAI builds a recovery plan tuned to what it's seeing.
A diagnosis you can read
Every care plan opens with a short, plain-language diagnosis of what's likely going wrong, so you understand the situation before you treat it.
Weekly recovery actions
A clear, two-week plan: immediate actions, a weekly schedule, recommended treatments or supplements, what to monitor, and an estimate of how long recovery should take.
Persistent and adaptive
Your care plan stays with the plant until it recovers above 75 percent. If health drops again later, a new plan picks up where the last one left off.
Recovery celebration
When your plant climbs back above 75 percent, you get a small, well-earned notification: “Your plant is thriving again.” The kind of moment a tracker should mark.
Weekly streaks, gentle rewards.
A new check-in cadence that rewards consistency without nagging. Five seconds a week is the whole ask.
Weekly check-in streak
A streak that grows each week you check in on your plants, with small unlocks along the way (badges, extra Care Plan insights, and other quiet rewards).
The five-second weekly promise
Onboarding spells it out: ongoing tracking takes about five seconds a week. Snap one photo, log it, done. The streak does the rest.
Smart check-in reminders.
Context-aware nudges that show up only when there's something useful to do.
Post-watering photo prompt
After you log a watering on a struggling plant, PlantAI prompts you to take a quick health photo so the recovery can be tracked from that moment forward.
Calmer cadence for healthy plants
Plants that are thriving only get the gentle weekly check-in. No extra prompts after each watering, so the app stays out of your way when there's nothing to fix.
Reliability & polish.
The small things that quietly make the app feel more solid every time you open it.
Persistent plant photos
A fix for a reported issue where plant photos could disappear over time. Photos are now reliably saved and loaded from local storage, so what you capture stays put.
Liquid Glass tab bar
The floating tab bar adopts Apple's iOS 26 Liquid Glass material for a translucent, light-bending finish that matches the rest of the system.
Smarter review prompts
The in-app review request now fires at one well-chosen moment — your first genuinely satisfying scan — instead of after a fixed count.
Quality-of-life improvements
Plus the usual sweep of small bug fixes, copy tweaks, and stability work across the app.
