The only app you need to keep plants alive

Have you ever killed a houseplant? If so, you’re in the majority of people who try their best, but just can’t keep a plant alive. The reason is simple: all plants have different care requirements. So the reason your plant didn’t survive could be because you cared for it a little too much, or just not enough.

Planta is a powerful app that makes plant care super easy. Users simply input what plants they own, and instantly get detailed care requirements and life-saving schedules that prompt them to water, fertilize, mist, clean, and report their plants based on their unique needs. The app has simple features like identifying plants from photos, and even advanced features like a light meter to measure if your plant gets enough sunlight. Planta is the only app anyone needs to keep plants healthy and happy.

Creating spaces to connect users, with a twist

Planta reached 6 million users in November 2022, making it one of the largest groups of plant enthusiasts in the world. But they were missing the social features required to transform those millions into an engaged community. And their members noticed, giving Planta valuable feedback that they wanted to connect with others in the app.

It was obvious for Planta that creating a space to engage their community was the logical next step to take their app to the next level. But they wanted to do it in a way that separated them from the countless forums, Facebook groups, and Reddit threads that already exist on the topic of plants. They needed ready-to-use social features they could not only integrate into their app, but customize to better fit their niche app. And they needed these features to scale along with their growing app.

Finding new ways to engage with Amity Social Cloud

Social features in the Planta app

Planta found what they were looking for with Amity Social Cloud. Amity’s powerful social features checked all of their boxes: ready-to-use, easy to integrate, customizable, and scalable. And so, they were able to give their users exactly what they needed: Feeds and Groups where members can ask questions and help each other out on anything plant related.

Utilizing Amity’s capacity to customize, they enabled users to tag their plants in their posts. And not just a generic plant from the same family, but the actual plant owned by the person posting. This is an incredible resource for users, as they can simply click on the tagged plant to see vital information like the past watering schedule and other conditions of the plant stored in Planta before they respond to a post, leading to quicker and more efficient engagement.
