App question: there was, at one time, a rain detection feature enabled using location services. This feature seems to have disappeared. Weāre having historic rain in TX and the app has no clue and its screwing up fertilizing schedules. When did this rain detection stop and why? (Btw I canāt find a support link anymore, either.)

Thatās so weird. Mine is working. Iām in Ohio and was able to tap the rain reported button at the top of the screen.

I had to twice label outside plants watered last week after rain when Planta did not give me the rain option to mark watered. Its supposed to rain today, and it hasn't yet. The app is now asking me if I want to mark plants watered. š¤·š½āāļøš¤£ At least it accurately gave me the option yesterday when we I was under severe storm warning and it poured cats and dogs. š¤·š½āāļø
2 gillningar Yeah I mean so many of us have had such copious amounts of rain this summer; not a great time for it to quit for some. Gotta be a glitch so Iām glad I asked! That or they lost some reporting stations ā¹ļø. Thanks for your input!
2 gillningar The rain option has not been removed. If it has rained and the app detects it, you should see a rain banner in the news feed where you can mark all your outdoor sites without a roof as rained. Just to double-check, could you go to Settings in the app and check the following? Under Notifications, make sure Weather alerts are enabled. Then go to News Feed settings, and confirm that Weather alerts are turned on there as well. Sometimes the app may not pick up on local rain if the assigned weather station doesnāt detect it. You can always mark rain manually: Tap the ā+ā button in the bottom right corner Choose āAdd task to siteā Select your outdoor site (without a roof) Then choose āMark as rainedā
2 gillningar Oh thanks for that last tip-didnāt know you could mark a whole site manually! Thatās helpful. Confirmed all my settings are correct; I figure the closest station wasnāt detecting the rain we got.

Itās only a premium thing š¢š¢
Update: the last rain we had (about 1ā) 10 days ago activated the āMark Plants as wateredā feature, thankfully. First time since June. And it has rained here in N Texas about every 10 days since late June. Not our usual summer but itās welcome. For the first summer in 6 years our outdoor plants arenāt fried. Hoping the āwateredā feature will keep it up.
0 gillningarThis is crazy. Even with Premium Planta the āit has rainedā banner only comes up half the time, if that. Literally every weather app says itās raining. So where does Planta get its rain sources from?
