JungleSIM for plants
Know when your plants need water.
Put a small sensor in the pot. The app shows how moist the soil is, notices every watering by itself and tells you when a plant is getting dry. No hub and no base station: the sensor uses your home Wi-Fi.

How it works
- Into the potPush the probe into the soil up to the line on the blade. One M1S per plant.
- Onto your Wi-FiThe JungleSIM app sets the sensor up over Bluetooth in about a minute. Any 2.4 GHz home Wi-Fi works.
- Water when it says soThe app lists your plants by who needs water first and sends you a message when one is getting dry.
Made for the windowsill
- Watering noticed by itself
- When the soil gets wetter, the app knows you watered. You see when each plant last had water and how many days it usually lasts.
- Knows your plant
- Pick the type and the app sets the watering line: succulents and cacti dry, most house plants in the middle, ferns and tropicals moist. You can change it.
- A message when it is dry
- “Monstera needs water” on your phone, and on the home screen widget the plants that are due.
- Months on one charge
- The sensor sends every few hours and sleeps in between, so the battery lasts for months. It charges over USB-C.
- No metal in the soil
- It measures capacitively through its blade, so nothing corrodes in wet soil.
- Free app
- Plant mode is part of the free JungleSIM app. Android now, iOS coming.
Want JungleSIM to water for you?
To see the readings, the sensor alone is enough. As soon as JungleSIM should switch something by them, such as a watering pump, a grow light or any other device, you need an S1M screen module or a C1H control hub.
