Orchid Care
Companion
A calm, offline reference and journal for orchid growers. Genus-aware watering, feeding and reblooming reminders — because a Phalaenopsis, a Cattleya and a Dendrobium don't follow the same care calendar.
Orchid care built around genus.
12 genera & 34 species
From your first supermarket Phalaenopsis to a windowsill full of Cattleya, Dendrobium and Paphiopedilum — each genus and species has a clear care summary and photo. All on your device, no internet required.
Genus-aware reminders
Pick your growing environment once — average indoor, cool room, or warm & humid — and every orchid you add gets watering, feeding, repotting and rest-period reminders tuned to its genus, not generic plant advice.
Reblooming guidance
The seasonal nudges that get shy bloomers to flower again. A Cattleya needs a dry rest in autumn to spike; a Dendrobium Nobile needs a cool, dry winter. The app knows the difference.
Per-plant journal & photos
Log blooms, watering and repotting for each orchid — and attach a photo, taken with the camera or chosen from your library. Every plant keeps its own timeline so you never lose track of what happened and when.
Problem reference library
Clear guidance on the common troubles: root rot, bud blast, mealybugs, crown rot and more — so you can act before a plant is lost.
Export & own your data
Export your whole collection to a JSON file via the iOS share sheet any time — AirDrop it, email it, save it to Files. Offline by design: works in your greenhouse, works on a plane. Your data stays yours.
Add your own orchid
Not in our library? Add any orchid yourself — a no-ID supermarket plant, a hybrid, a gift. Pick its genus and it still gets the full genus-aware care schedule. Add your own photo and notes, and edit any detail later.

Frequently asked questions
What does Orchid Care Companion do?
It is a private orchid care reference and journal for iPhone. You browse 12 genera and 34 species, keep a per-plant journal of blooms, watering and repotting, and receive genus-aware reminders for watering, feeding, repotting and rest periods.
Why are its reminders called "genus-aware"?
Reminders derive from each plant's genus and your chosen growing environment, not generic plant advice. A Phalaenopsis, a Cattleya and a Dendrobium Nobile each get a different care calendar — because they really do need different watering, rest periods and feeding schedules.
Does it need an account or an internet connection?
No. Orchid Care Companion requires no account or signup and has no backend at all. It works offline with no internet required, and nothing leaves your device unless you explicitly export it.
Is there a subscription?
No. Orchid Care Companion is a one-time purchase with no subscription, no ads and no tracking, ever.
Which devices does it support?
It runs on iPhone and iPad on iOS 17 and later.
