What Is the Best Free App for Identifying Plant Problems?
PropBoxd gives you two ways to figure out what is wrong: ask a community of experienced collectors for free, or get an instant photo diagnosis from Dr. Sage.
Ask real collectors, free
Post a photo to the feed or message an experienced grower. Many have dealt with the same yellow leaves, thrips or rot.
Dr. Sage, the AI plant doctor
Upload a photo and describe what you see. Dr. Sage explains the likely cause and what to do next, in plain language. Included with Premium at $3.99/month.
Care history helps the diagnosis
Your watering log, repots and growth photos show what changed before the problem started.
Prevent the next problem
Free watering reminders help avoid the most common cause of houseplant trouble: watering too much or too little.
