You complete website setup and subscribe, then request reminders in your conversation without installing a separate Astumi app. ## Will umi tell me exactly when each plant needs water? No. This is a reminder service, not a soil sensor or an automatic plant-care schedule. You choose when to check and decide whether to water using the plant’s care instructions. ## Can I set separate reminders for different plants? Yes. Name each plant or location in its reminder request and check each saved schedule. You can also request one reminder to check a group of plants. ## Can I change or cancel a plant reminder? Yes. Tell umi which reminder to update or cancel. Include the plant name and the new day or time when changing a schedule. ## how much does it cost?

Send STOP on its own to stop messages and request cancellation of future subscription renewals linked to your phone number. This does not refund the current period. To stop one reminder, ask umi to cancel that reminder instead. ## Are delivery times exact? Delivery times are approximate. iMessage notifications also depend on your phone’s settings and connectivity; this is not an alarm that overrides Focus or silent mode. ## make a little time for your plants.
