Features & flows
Seven screens, two overlays, four growth features. Every interaction designed for people who just want to water their plants.
Core screens
7 screens + 2 overlays
Each screen serves exactly one purpose. No menus, no sidebars, no buried settings.
Home / Plant List
All plants at a glance. Sorted by urgency: overdue first, then due soon, then healthy. One-tap watering button on every card. Floating action button to add a new plant.
Add Plant
Modal sheet. Name (required), species (optional), watering interval in days (1–90, default 7). Validation prevents empty names. Free tier stops at 3 plants with a gentle nudge to the paywall.
Plant Detail + Edit
Full watering history (last 30 entries). Edit name, interval, notes (premium). Share button top-right opens iOS Share Sheet. Delete with confirmation dialog.
Notifications
Permission request on first launch. Local push at 9:00 AM when a plant is due. Grouped when multiple plants are due the same day. Tap to deep link directly to the plant.
Settings
Toggle notifications on/off. Switch between dark and light theme. View subscription status. Manage or restore subscription. Reset all data (with confirmation).
Paywall / Upgrade
StoreKit 2. Two options: $4.99/month or $39.99/year (~33% savings). 7-day free trial auto-enrolled. Restore purchases button. Triggers when free user tries to add a 4th plant.
Share Sheet
iOS native Share Sheet with pre-written text: "My [Plant Name] is thriving thanks to Dewdrop!" plus App Store link. One tap from Plant Detail.
Review Prompt
One-time popup after 5 total waterings: "Loving Dewdrop? Rate us!" Uses SKStoreReviewController. "No Thanks" dismisses permanently.
Overlay states
First-launch empty state — Friendly illustration + "Add your first plant" prompt. No confusion, no tutorial, just one clear action.
Post-trial empty state — If user had >3 plants during trial, shows droopy plant + "Missed a plant? Upgrade now." for 3 days, then reverts. FR-22
