Support

Something broken, something confusing, or an idea for what GrowSpot should do next — it all reaches the same place, and we read every message.

Two ways to reach us

If you can open the app, the in-app form is the better route — it lets you attach screenshots, so the problem arrives already explained.

In the app

Settings › Help & Support › Report a problem. Choose Bug, Idea or Other, describe what happened, and attach up to three screenshots.

By email

[email protected] — for account questions, billing, press, or anything you'd rather not send through a form. Also the right route if the app won't open at all.

What makes a bug easy to fix

None of this is required. Any of it helps.

Common questions

Answers to the usual ones

How do I manage or cancel Plus?

Subscriptions are billed by the app store, not by us, so they're managed there. On iPhone: Settings › your name › Subscriptions › GrowSpot. On Android: Play Store › your profile › Payments & subscriptions › Subscriptions. Cancelling stops the next renewal and you keep Plus until the period you already paid for ends.

I paid but the app says I'm on the free plan.

Open GrowSpot and tap Restore purchase — it re-checks your store account and usually sorts it out. Make sure you're signed in to the same app store account you paid with. If it still doesn't come back, email us and say which store and which email you used.

How do I delete my account and my data?

Settings › Delete account, inside the app. It permanently removes your account, your plants and their whole history — there's no undo, so export or screenshot anything you want to keep first. Deleting your account is not the same as cancelling a subscription; cancel that separately in the app store.

Why does GrowSpot sometimes say it can't assess something?

Most of the time it doesn't — it fills the gap with an estimate from your local weather and your description of the spot, and labels it as an estimate. But phone sensors have real limits, and a few conditions can't be read honestly from where you set the phone down. In those cases it says so rather than inventing a number, and tells you which parts of the picture it's sure about and which it isn't.

When is Android coming?

Closed testing is finishing now. You can claim a Founding 50 spot and start the moment it ships.

What happens to my photos and data?

The short version: identification and diagnosis photos are processed to give you an answer, the light reading works on the device, and GrowSpot never asks for photos of your home. The long version is in the Privacy Policy and Terms.

I have an idea for a feature.

Send it. The in-app form has an Idea category for exactly this. We read every note ourselves — nothing gets lost.
