Plant Planner draws inspiration from nature and plants, reflected in its calming color palette of various shades of green. The app features a plethora of plant photos and incorporates rounded corners in its interface to create a peaceful and serene atmosphere.
What sets Plant Planner apart from other plant care apps is its comprehensive database of plants, complete with photos and descriptions. Users can easily search for plants based on their experience level, with tags indicating whether a plant is suitable for beginners or more experienced gardeners. Each plant entry provides valuable information on watering frequency and tips for planting and growth.
One of the standout features of Plant Planner is its watering reminder functionality. Users can add plants to their personal plant list and set notifications for watering times. The app's watering reminder page displays a calendar with all the user's plants and their respective watering schedules, ensuring that no plant goes thirsty.
In addition to its practical features, Plant Planner also offers a wealth of educational content. The app includes a collection of interesting articles about plants, providing users with valuable insights and tips to enhance their plant care knowledge.
The development of Plant Planner involved extensive research and user testing. Anna Muratova analyzed similar apps, created user stories, and developed scenarios to understand the needs of different users. Wireframes and a clickable prototype were then created and tested to ensure a seamless user experience. The overall UI design was crafted to appeal to the target audience, striking a balance between simplicity, modernity, and visual appeal.
Plant Planner is available as an iOS and Android app, making it accessible to a wide range of users. The project, which was carried out in Russia, commenced in January 2021 and concluded in June of the same year.
This innovative app has garnered recognition in the design community, receiving the Bronze A' Design Award in the Mobile Technologies, Applications, and Software Design category in 2022. This prestigious award celebrates designs that demonstrate creativity, resourcefulness, and a commitment to improving quality of life through art, science, design, and technology.
With Plant Planner, plant care has never been easier. Whether you're a seasoned plant enthusiast or just starting your green journey, this app is your ultimate companion for nurturing and growing a thriving indoor garden.
