About Sproutkind
Sproutkind makes everyday plant care feel approachable. Identify a plant from a photo or a built-in sample, explore practical care guidance, check visible plant health, and save the plants you love to a private on-device garden. PERSONAL PLANT GUIDANCE • Find the closest match from a photo and review a clear confidence disclosure. • Explore watering, light, soil, temperature, and humidity guidance. • Learn about plant characteristics, common problems, uses, and safety notes. YOUR PRIVATE GARDEN • Save plants with custom names and personal notes. • Privately back up structured garden records and care history with Firebase. • Delete the complete cloud backup and its private identity from Settings at any time. • Schedule local watering reminders on your device. PRACTICAL PLANT TOOLS • Run a visual health check with observations and suggested next steps. • Use Plant Finder, Water Guide, Light Meter, Repot Check, and Care Advisor. • Browse a curated offline plant library and seasonal care context. LOCAL-FIRST BY DESIGN Original and journal photos remain on your device. When you explicitly run online analysis, a resized scan photo is securely processed by Google Gemini and is not added to Sproutkind cloud storage. Structured garden records, care history, scan metadata, and city preference use a private anonymous Firebase identity for backup and sync. Meta receives limited activation, paywall-view, and verified initial-subscription events for aggregate measurement; advertising-ID and automatic-event attribution stay off unless you grant iOS tracking permission after onboarding. Cloud data can be permanently deleted from Settings. Plant identification and health guidance are educational closest-match estimates, not professional botanical, medical, veterinary, or poison-control advice. Confirm safety-critical decisions with a qualified source. Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
