YardMate
Know your plants. Care for them. Discover their stories.
YardMate is more than a plant identifier. Take a photo to identify a plant, diagnose problems, and get personalized care for watering, soil, light, and feeding. Discover the history and surprising stories behind the plants around you, then save your own plants to a journal and watch them grow over time. Built to help you form a relationship with the plants you live with—not just put a name to them.
Hey Product Hunt! 👋
I built YardMate because I always felt plant identification apps stopped one question too early.
Knowing the name of a plant is useful, but once you know its name, the interesting questions begin: Where did it come from? Why does it look like this? What stories have people told about it? And if I’m growing one myself, what does it actually need right now?
So I started building YardMate around that idea.
It identifies plants and diagnoses problems, but it also helps you understand how to care for them—watering, soil, light, feeding, seasonal changes, and reminders. And for the plants in your own garden, there’s a journal where you can keep photos, care history, and watch them change over time.
One of my favorite parts is the plant stories. I’ve been building a growing library of illustrated entries about the history, science, culture, and strange little facts behind the plants we see every day.
YardMate is built by one person, in SwiftUI, and localized into 11 languages.
I’d love to hear what you think—especially what you wish existing plant apps did better.
