Your shelf, under your own sky
Every plant you add gets a pot on your shelf, and the window behind it shows the weather where you live. A droplet floats over anyone thirsty, and one tap waters it.
A game about your real plants
Grow your plants while playing a game.
Water, snap a photo, keep your streak and level up while your houseplants grow. You don't need to know anything about plants.

Why it's fun
Most plant apps are a to-do list.
You tick the box, the box goes grey, and tomorrow the same list is back. Nothing about it feels like a win.
Plant Pad turns the same care into a game. Water the real plant, earn XP, keep your streak, and watch the plants on your shelf perk up too.
Water the monstera
Ticked. Tomorrow the list looks exactly the same.
Checked in. Your XP, your streak and the shelf all move.
The daily check-in
Scan it. Log it. Level up.
Logs earn full XP only when your camera sees a plant. That's what makes every level yours: you went to your plants and earned it.
Hands full? Log it anyway.
Skip the scan and the log still saves. A scanned one just earns the full reward.
Scanned with the camera
- Saved to your journal
- Full XP
- Counts toward your streak
Logged without scanning
- Saved to your journal
- Half the XP
- Still counts toward your streak
What's inside
A little game that grows with your plants.
Things to collect, streaks to keep, and help whenever you get stuck.
XP, streaks and badges
Every log moves your XP bar, and showing up keeps your streak flame burning, from a small spark all the way to a blue flame. Level-ups and badges get a little party from Sunny.
Daily quests
Three small quests a day, like watering a thirsty plant or writing a note. Finish all three for bonus XP.
The Potting Bench
Pick a pot, a finish and a leaf shape for every plant, or hit Surprise me. New pots turn up as you level.
A photo timeline
Snap a photo with a check-in and it joins that plant's timeline. Scroll back and see how far it came.
Your plant journal
Each day's waterings, notes and photos land in a notebook, with a one-line summary on top. There's room for notes about the whole garden too.
Field Guide
Point your camera at a plant you don't know, or look it up by name, and it joins your Field Guide. Fill it in as you go.
Disease and light checks
Scan a funny-looking leaf for signs of disease, then ask Leaf what to do next. A light check tells you how bright your plant's spot really is.
Ask Leaf
Leaf, your plant tutor, answers from your own plant's history and tells you when it isn't sure. Finally, someone to ask about the brown tips.
Reminders and a widget
Sunny sends a friendly nudge on the day a plant needs water, and before your streak slips. A home-screen widget keeps your streak in sight.
Plant Memorial
Losing a plant doesn't erase it. It moves to a memorial garden with its photos and history kept.
Show off a plant
Make a picture card of any plant with its streak and stats, ready to send to a friend.
Who it's for
Three ways people end up here.
Different starting points. The same shelf waiting at the end of them.
-
Learning from past plants
You've lost a plant before. Maybe three.
Leaf reads back what you actually logged and helps you work out what went wrong. The ones that didn't make it stay on in the Memorial.
-
Just getting started
One plant. A hundred questions.
The shelf shows who's thirsty, so you don't need to know anything yet. Ask Leaf the question you'd feel silly asking a person.
-
Keeping a collection
A whole windowsill and still counting.
Every plant gets its own pot, streak and photo timeline. Search and filter the shelf to see who needs water today.
