## Plant Light Meter Description
After excessive watering, lack of light is the second most common cause of death of indoor plants. 
Better light conditions will keep your plants healthy.
Measure your plants’ ideal light levels for the price of a cup of coffee!
  

How to use:
- Launch the application
- Point the camera toward the plant’s leaves
- Press the “Measure” button

How to interpret the measurement:
- Very low light: Difficult conditions for plants to survive.
- Low light: For plants that can tolerate low levels of light, such as the aglaonema, parlor palm, and philodendron. 
- Medium light: For the majority of indoor plants, such as the Dracaena, Pothos, and spider plant.
- High light: For plants that love light, such as the zebra plant, areca palm, and croton.

Features:
- Detection of natural light & artificial lights
- Compatible with rear camera only

Notes: 
This application allows you to measure the light levels of indoor plants. However, if you need very precise measurements, the use of professional equipment is recommended.

## Plant Light Meter Reviews in United States

### **--- "Not accurate"
I tried to find my carnivorous plants on the list and they weren’t there, with grow lights turned off told me there was sufficient light but when I turned on my 40 watt grow lights it said insufficient light. Waste of money.
-- Mygraciecat, 2025-03-07

### *---- "Beware"
Bought it and it doesn’t tell exact numbers, way off from normal meters you regularly buy
-- Bob22777(5, 2023-12-02

### ***-- "Wish I hadn’t paid before trying"
It’s a cool concept, but it’s got a limited list of plants to check from and half of mine aren’t on it. This was recommended online as a free app, I wish I’d have tried it before paying.
-- Vaevin, 2023-02-20

### ***** "Pretty awesome!"
I usually randomly test plants to make sure they’re getting enough light. I live in a basement apartment and they only rely on grow lights. This is pretty accurate and so helpful. My plants are thriving in my conditions. People complain that there’s some plants missing but all you have to do is use the all plants feature and see how many fc there is and look up how much your plants need.
-- Dorko525, 2022-11-18

### ***-- "Missing common plant!"
Cannabis plant is not one of the available options. 😕
-- Rich Duderino, 2022-10-01

### ***** "Skeptical at first but life saver for newbies"
My house only has north and south facing windows with trees or house structures blocking window light. I found it a struggle finding the best place to put plants but this app helps a ton. All my plants have been doing well and I credit this app in helping me along my plant hobby journey.
-- Yackyackies, 2022-07-25

### ***** "so helpful"
now I know why!
-- SD Zen, 2022-03-11

### ***** "Amazing FREE Plant Light App!!"
I’m always on the search for a truly FREE plant app. This one is awesome and I’d say pretty accurate for lighting. Wish it had a few more options for indoor plants. Like orchids.
-- meglanquin, 2022-02-21

### ***** "App works great"
Even without putting it on leaves, it works great. Worth the money
-- Jtsify, 2022-02-08

### ***** "Happy to be Wrong!"
Thought I wasn’t going to like this app, but I was wrong. No more guessing, no more trying to figure out lumens, lux, candle 😝 Takes all the guesswork out!

Only complaint, not enough plants!! PLEASE add more. Even if it’s as a paid add on, it would be worth it!!
