The first iPhone version of DevPlant. It does the same things as the Android app: scan leaves, keep a history, manage fields, look things up in the pest and disease guide, check the dashboard, and browse the 600-plant catalogue. It also has the same glass control menu as Android.

This is a preview. It runs inside the free Expo Go app, and a computer has to be running the launcher while you use it.

How to run it on an iPhone

The zip has a READ-ME-FIRST.txt with the same steps in plain words.

  1. On the iPhone, install Expo Go from the App Store.

  2. On a Mac or Windows PC, download DevPlant-iPhone-v0.1.2.zip below and unzip it.

  3. Start it:

    • Mac: double-click START-MAC.command. If macOS blocks it, right-click it, choose Open, then click Open.
    • Windows: double-click START-WINDOWS.bat.

    The first run installs Node.js and the app's packages, which takes a few minutes.

  4. When the QR code appears, scan it with the iPhone camera. DevPlant opens in Expo Go.

Keep the iPhone on the same Wi-Fi as the computer. If it won't connect, answer Y when the launcher asks about tunnel mode.

To update later, download the newest zip and run the launcher again.

Android users: the APK is on the v0.1.1 release.
