Succulent Tracker

I typed in my phone number but there is nothing else on the page to click after that.

Tried to add a photo from the phone,nothing happened. Took a photo with the camera, still couldn’t get a plant added. Absolute waste of time. Update: The developer responded promptly enough so I took a second look at the app. Once you give the app full permission to your photos, then adding plants sort of works. The app seems to be unresponsive seconds just to add a new plant. The design of the app is well thought out for the most part. So whoever designed it sure put in a lot more effort than whoever coded it. I’m changing my rating to three stars for now.

Attractive, but lacks tools you would expect from a plant identification and care app. I was expecting a “succulent” app to be dedicated to identification and care of succulents, but it lacks those features. I f you do not already know why your plant is, and how to care for it, this will not help because it is little more than a database and reminder. There is a buried plant database, but it is manual l. It has filters, but you need to know you have a Crassula to narrow down to anything similar and it does not seem to load all of the photos, so you have to tap to see what each Crassula is. It is a little odd that you cannot enter the last time a plant was watered if it was watered before you added it. It is not clear to me what the $30/yr subscription gets you.

I started my succulent obsession in February 2023 and now have 80+ plants and my collection continues to grow. All of my succulents are indoors and I needed a way to keep organized for their care. This App is wonderful and very user friendly. This App also lets you keep a photo journal of my succulents’ progress which I love. Yes, there is a fee if you have more than 5 plants, but it is minimal and so very worth it. I would be lost without this App. And, if you have plants indoors and outdoors, you can designate the plants location.

Without this app. , I would not be able to remember when I watered my plants last.

Great app, but I would really appreciate an ability to one time buy instead of the monthly subscription model.

I started taking care of succulents a couple of years ago and somehow ended up with over 30 plants (counting props). Lol. My poor ADHD brain has had a slightly difficult time keeping track of the minutiae for every plant. A few months ago, I dreamed up an app that would help. THIS is the app! I found it! And it’s almost perfect. **NOTE: This isn’t an ID or Diagnostic app!** It’s a Helper app: To help keep track of your succulents. I’ve tried a few other apps that try to “do it all,” but they all fell short for me. I think this one is the best. There’s no AI feature for diagnosing problems or identifying unknown succulents, but what it DOES do, it does really WELL! It took a little while to get comfortable with it, but getting started was pretty simple and easy. I had plants put in, named (genus, species & variety, and cultivar), nicknamed, tagged, photographed, and organized really quickly. When I’ve wanted a feature, I’ve quickly realized that the feature already existed, I just hadn’t discovered it yet. For instance, I have different species of succulent props together in one dish: I can enter them each individually, and when I water the whole dish, I can bring up their tag (propdish) and log “water” for all of them as a group, instead having to log it for each one, separately. I’m really pleased with this app overall. Pretty much everything I need is easy to see and keep track of. No more losing track of when something was watered or repotted last. Highly recommend!

IMO this app is basically useless. It does not identify succulents. It does not offer any suggestions or helpful info about the plants. I guess it could be useful to someone that knows everything about every succulent but I'm not that person. The user has to enter all details about the plant & set all the reminders. I thought it would help me learn about my succulents but this is not the case. I'll be canceling my subscription. I've had other apps that offer these features, I'll return to those.

Simple and feature limited. Slightly more convenient than using my spreadsheet to keep track of my collection. Not enough functionality or value to ask for $2.99 per month.

My plants are healthier. It helps me to know the date I fertilized and watered my plants and reminds me who needs water and fertilizer.
