About this app

This app is designed for people that acquired or own indoor plants but don't know where to place them. Light is one of the most important parameter to grow beautiful and happy plants.However, most of the time indoor plants are located in places where they don't receive the kind of light they need.

The purpose of this app is to allow everybody from the beginner to the more advanced to check if their plants are receiving good light exposure. The process is quite easy:

1. Place your smartphone next to your plant
2. The app will then use your smartphone light sensor to measure how much light is hitting your plant spot
3. Then it will tell you the kind of light that your plant is receiving and then you will know if it's what your plant needs or not

Ratings and reviews

Pros: Good tutorial. Easy and straight forward to use. Tells you what the lux number correlates to (sun, partial sun, shade ect) Cons: Can't save plants to any sort of list. Can't save lux results in the app to compare locations. Despite advertising more plants, some basic indoor plants are still not in the database.

Its nice to be able to measure the light levels around my plants but it does not seem to be geared toward indoor plants and the sensor doesn't seem to register light levels in all spectrums the same, for instance it measures the light levels differently at the same distance from my blue/red bulbs and my full spectrum white bulbs. The majority of the plant information is definitely outdoor only plants, very few indoor options, which is much less helpful to me.

Nice idea, but most of my houseplants aren't included in their database (perhaps due to differences in plant names in different countries) so it's not really useful. The light meter itself seems to work well.
