GreenLens
Plant Care App
Care reminders that know your plant — not just your calendar.
GreenLens is a plant care app that combines identification, care scheduling, and health diagnostics in one place. Instead of generic watering timers, it connects care recommendations to the specific plant, its environment, and recent changes.

Best fit
Choose GreenLens if:
- You want care reminders that are based on the actual plant, not a generic schedule.
- You have multiple plants and need per-plant care profiles in one place.
- You want to connect care history to health diagnosis when something goes wrong.
Not the best fit
GreenLens is not the right tool if:
- You only need a simple universal timer without any plant-specific context.
- You are managing a professional nursery or large-scale growing operation — commercial tools are more appropriate.
FAQ
Common questions answered directly.
How is GreenLens different from a basic watering reminder app?
A basic watering reminder fires every N days regardless of what the plant looks like. GreenLens connects care recommendations to the specific species, your environment, and what changed recently. If a plant is already stressed, the reminder approach adjusts rather than pushing a routine that makes things worse.
Can GreenLens remind me to fertilize and repot as well as water?
Yes. GreenLens care plans include watering, fertilizing, and repotting schedules tailored to the identified species. Each reminder type can be adjusted individually per plant.
How many plants can I track in GreenLens?
GreenLens supports a personal collection of multiple plants. Free and paid tiers differ on the number of advanced AI health checks available, but collection management and basic care reminders are included in the free version.
Will GreenLens tell me if I am overwatering?
Yes. The health check feature is specifically designed to catch overwatering before it becomes root rot. If you scan a plant showing soft stems or yellowing and the care history shows recent watering, GreenLens will flag the likely connection.
Does GreenLens work for outdoor plants as well as houseplants?
GreenLens covers both indoor and outdoor plants. Care plan recommendations account for the plant type, so outdoor and garden plants receive contextually different guidance than tropical houseplants.
