what would you like to stick with?
Start with a message. Here are a few things you can ask umi.

Group plants for a regular inspection without assuming they all need water.
the kitchen-window pot
Make the location part of the reminder so you know what to check.
before a trip
Set a dated reminder to arrange care before you leave.
a little trust goes a long way.
Personal conversations deserve clear answers. Here’s what to expect from umi.
a reminder does not mean water every time
Check the plant and follow its care instructions before watering. Your chosen reminder schedule is for checking; it is not a watering recommendation.
you are away from home
Arrange care yourself and ask umi to change or cancel your check-ins if needed. umi reminds you; it does not water plants or message a plant sitter.
