Frequently Asked Questions

How do I add a new plant?

On the "My Garden" screen, tap the + button in the top-right corner, or tap the "Seed Store" banner. Browse the vegetable catalog, select a variety, set the number of days already grown, then tap "Add to My Garden."

How do I log a watering?

Open any plant's detail page and tap the πŸ’§ Water button. The app records the action and updates the moisture status automatically.

Where does a plant go after I harvest it?

When you update a plant's stage to πŸŽ‰ Harvested, it moves out of your garden and is saved automatically in Harvest Records. You can find it under "Me" β†’ "Harvest Records."

Is the day count calculated automatically?

When you add a plant you can manually set how many days it has already been growing (e.g., 7 days). The current version records the value you enter. Automatic daily increment will be supported in a future update.

Where is my data saved? Is it uploaded to a server?

All data β€” plants, tasks, and harvest records β€” is saved locally on your phone. Nothing is uploaded to any server, and no account is required.

I accidentally deleted a plant. Can I recover it?

The current version does not support undo for deletions. You can re-add the plant and manually set the growing days. We recommend enabling iCloud Backup in iPhone Settings to protect against data loss.

How do I reset all data?

Go to "Me" β†’ scroll to the bottom β†’ "Reset All Data." After confirming, all plants and task records are erased and the app returns to its initial state. This action cannot be undone.
