Every plant builds a patient card over time: water history, diagnoses, what worked. The Doctor reads it before every consultation. Grounded, not generic advice.
Planterra is a plant care consultant that lives in your pocket. It learns your specific rooms, remembers every plant's history, and gives you advice grounded in your actual home instead of a generic care sheet.
Point your iPhone through each window once. Planterra reads the compass direction and computes the sun's real path across your kitchen, bedroom, and every space in between. From day one it knows which corners are bright at noon, which peak at sunset, which lose light in winter.
Every plant also has a patient card - a running record of what's been diagnosed, what you've tried, what actually worked. The Doctor reads it before every consultation, so you get answers grounded in your specific plant's full story, not generic care sheets.
WHAT PLANTERRA DOES
- Identify any plant from a photo, with detailed care instructions written for the plant you actually have - not a generic paragraph.
- Map the windows in your home once, and Planterra learns which one is brightest at any hour of the day.
- Recommend the right window for each plant based on real sun position, today's weather, and each species' light preferences.
- Track watering, fertilizing, and repotting with timely reminders you can adjust to fit your rhythm.
- Chat with a Plant Doctor when leaves yellow, wilt, or curl - pick the symptom or describe what you see, and get a thoughtful diagnosis with next steps.
- Discover plants that would thrive in any spot in your home by measuring the actual light with your camera - then swipe through matches.
- Build an Atlas - a personal field guide of plants you spot on walks, hikes, and holidays, saved with their location so you can look them up years later.
WHY SUN‑AWARE PLACEMENT
Most plant apps stop at "bright indirect light" - leaving you to guess which corner of your home actually counts. Planterra takes it further. Point your phone through each window once, and it captures the direction it faces. From then on, using the sun's real position and current cloud cover, it can tell you which window is bright right now, when each one peaks, and which of your plants belong where.
THOUGHTFUL AT EVERY STEP
Toxicity warnings for pets and children on every plant.
Difficulty ratings so you know what you're taking on before you commit.
A signature care tip written specifically for your plant, not a copy‑paste encyclopedia entry.
Small milestone acknowledgements as your plants age and thrive.
PRIVATE BY DEFAULT
Your photos, notes, care history, and window data live on your device. No account required. No ads. Nothing sold to third parties. If you delete the app, your data goes with it.
Whether you're rescuing a droopy fern or planning your dream indoor jungle, Planterra is the friend who actually reads the light in your room and helps you make good choices for every plant you bring home.
WHO'S BEHIND PLANTERRA
Planterra is built by one person - an independent developer based in Munich. There is no support ticket queue and no chatbot between you and the maker. Every note sent to hello@planterra.cloud reaches me directly. If you find a bug, want a feature, or just want to share how your monstera is doing, I read it and I answer.
I built Planterra because I wanted a plant app that took the light in my own apartment seriously - not one that told me every plant needs "bright indirect
light" and left the rest to me. If that's the kind of care you also want, you're in the right place. Whether you're rescuing a droopy fern or planning your dream indoor jungle,
Planterra is the friend who actually reads the light in your room and helps you make good choices for every plant you bring home.
