Treatment Trim the dead tissue back to green and water sooner.

Care plan

Water every 9 days

  2. Water when the top 2 inches of soil are dry.
  3. Trim scorched tissue back to green.
  4. Re-scan in two weeks.

Three steps to a healthy plant.

All it takes is one photo.

  1. Photograph the problem

    A spotted leaf, a drooping stem, the whole plant. Get close, in good light. A clear photo beats a pretty one.

  2. Read the diagnosis

    You get the species, a health status, and every problem Bloom found. Each one comes with its treatment, so there's nothing left to go and google.

  3. Follow the care plan

    Light, water and soil for that exact species, in the order to do them. Your snake plant and your fern get different watering schedules.

Know how bad it is, out of 100.

Every scan returns a Plant Health Score. One number for how your plant is doing, which you can watch move as it recovers.

0–39 Struggling
Act today. The steps are ordered by what saves the plant, not by what's easiest.
40–74 Needs care
Something is off, and it's still fixable. Every problem comes with its treatment, and the plan tells you what to do first.
75–100 Thriving
Nothing to fix. You still get the care plan, so it stays that way through winter.

The score starts from how healthy the plant looks overall, then loses points for each problem found, weighted by how serious it is. Same photo, same score, so two readings a fortnight apart are worth comparing.

Watch the score climb.

Scan again in two weeks. Bloom keeps every reading, so the change is a number you can point at instead of a leaf you squint at.

Comparison saved. Share it, or keep it for next time.

Illustrative readings. Yours uses your own two photos of the same plant.

Get reminded when to water.

Save the plant to your garden and Bloom keeps the schedule. The interval comes from the species it identified, not a generic weekly nudge. Reminders fire on your phone, with or without signal, and everything due this week sits on one screen.

There's no account to make. Your garden, photos and history live on your phone and nowhere else. Delete the app and all of it goes with it.

The My Garden screen listing four plants with a photo each: lavender cotton and garden thyme marked Healthy and due water in four days, English lavender marked Needs attention and watered today, parsley marked Needs attention and Needs water. A watering reminder notification reading “Your parsley needs water today”, above the Watering screen grouping plants into This week and Later with a Water button beside each.

Your plant can probably be saved.

Straight answers

How accurate is the diagnosis?

Bloom runs your photo through Plant.id, which covers more than 400,000 species. It tracks a confidence level on every reading and tells you when it isn't sure, rather than guessing. Treat a diagnosis as an informed second opinion, not a guarantee. For a plant you can't afford to lose, ask a professional too.

What does the subscription include?

Everything, from the first scan: diagnoses, a Plant Health Score out of 100, a care plan for every species you photograph, watering reminders, and the before-and-after comparison when you re-scan.

What should I photograph?

The part that worries you, in bright natural light. One affected leaf usually works better than the whole plant. Get close enough to see the texture of the damage.

Do I need an account?

No. Bloom has no sign-up and no login. Your garden, photos, history and settings live on your phone. Deleting the app deletes all of it.

What happens to my photos?

A photo goes to Plant.id to produce the diagnosis, and nowhere else. Bloom asks your permission once, before the first scan. Photos are never used to identify you and are never sold or shared for advertising.

How do I cancel?

Open Settings on your iPhone, tap your name, then Subscriptions, then Bloom. You keep access until the end of the period you already paid for. In the EU you also have 14 days to withdraw from the purchase.
