Where Does Planta Store Plants and Schedules?
Planta keeps plant profiles, watering schedules, and progress photos in your account with local cache. Identify plants by photo to start care plans.
Last updated
Planta stores indoor gardens in the account cloud. Plant profiles with species, age, and location, watering and fertilizing schedules, plus progress photos sync across devices. The app cache speeds up the jungle but holds nothing durable.
That makes login the migration with one caveat: notification permissions reset per install, so re-enable reminders on the new phone or schedules go silent. Exact folder names may vary by version. Keep photographing progress; growth timelines motivate better than streaks.

Frequently asked questions
Do my plants transfer to a new phone?
Yes for profiles, schedules, and photos on login. Local cache rebuilds itself and needs no migration. Reminder timing follows the new phone notification settings, so re-check them after moves.
How accurate is plant identification?
Photograph the plant in good light and confirm the suggested species before accepting. Schedules derive from species plus your light answers. Wrong IDs water cacti like ferns, so verify first.
