Pros

Calming, meditative music and relaxing soundscapes
Very easy to use and set up (attach sensors to plant, start playing)
Innovative plant data sonification that translates plant signals into music
Pro version offers extensive customization and tuning options
Compact, portable device that's easy to take on the go

Cons

Pricing model with high upfront cost plus subscription required for core features / limited features without subscription
Stability and compatibility issues on Apple hardware (Mac/M1) and related app crashes/hangs
App reliability problems (crashes, unresponsive screens, unclickable buttons)
Hardware durability concerns (perceived cheap build, clamps damage plants, occasional breakage)

Recent reviews

Used to be having to pay $300+ for the into was enough. Now you have to pay for a subscription to use it!

OK, dramatic headline, I know. But this app has really changed how I move through my day. I got interested because I was listening to Plantwave music on YouTube at night. Got this as a gift from my partner two months ago and have used it every day since. First of all, we can acknowledge (as the makers do), the plants themselves are not “playing music”. Rather, the plants are experiencing shifts in energy (as I understand it), and the Plantwave translates data from these shifts into various notes, durations, spaces, and instrumentations. I have to say that I deeply appreciate the science AND artistry that have gone into the translating. I find the music more calming than most other meditative music I’ve tried. For me it’s something about the randomness of the tone sequences and the fact that there is never a repeating “melody”. I listen while sipping coffee in the morning, while working at home, and while sleeping (with a different “soundset” for each). Thank you to the creators for the heart you have put into this product!
