Maybe they’re lonely? It could also be too dry? Do you have a moisture meter?

You might need to custom water it. Sometimes Planta scheduled watering too often. If it’s thoroughly dry give it a good soak and then don’t water it for another 2-3 weeks when it is completely dry again. It looks like it’s in a window, east west or south facing would be best.

Maybe use a grittier potting mix? One that drains really well? I only water mine about once every six weeks, but it’s in a smaller pot.

The pot might be too big, so it’s harder to know when to water. I have mine in a 4 inch pot and I water approximately 2 tbsp every week.

It’s pretty likely planta has you watering too often - honestly I always use those reminders to check to see if it needs watering and not to \*actually\* water…bc otherwise all plants would get root rot
