Turfwise is an iPhone app made by Develak that turns your grass species, climate zone, and soil temperature into a dated lawn care season program, for DIYers and first-time homeowners who want to understand their lawn. [Download on the App Store](https://apps.apple.com/us/app/id6790096033) [Support](https://develak.com/apps/turfwise/support/) [Privacy](https://develak.com/apps/turfwise/privacy/) ## What is Turfwise? Turfwise is a lawn care app that starts from agronomy instead of a shopping list. Tell it your grass species and location, and it builds a dated season program from your climate zone, hemisphere, and soil temperature. You log whatever product you already own, any brand or analysis, and Turfwise calculates the dose, checks the forecast, and reminds you when today is the day to apply. ### App Store description Stop guessing what you put down, when you put it down, and how much. Turfwise is the amateur greenkeeper’s notebook. Every other lawn app is selling something: a bag of fertilizer, a soil-test kit, or a crew in a truck. Turfwise sells none of those. It builds your season program from agronomy — grass species, climate zone, soil temperature — then lets you log whatever product you actually own, any brand, any analysis. #### How it works 1\. Tell Turfwise your grass species and where you live. 2. It reads soil temperature and the forecast for your location. 3. You get a dated season program, exact doses, and an alert when today is the day. #### Your season program - The whole year, step by step: pre-emergent, fertilizing, overseeding, aeration, weed control - Built from species x climate zone x hemisphere — northern and southern seasons both work - Every step explains why it falls where it does — you learn your lawn, not a calendar - Nothing in it is a product recommendation. Ever. #### The dose calculator — imperial and metric - Enter your measured area and target rate, get the exact amount to put down - lb N per 1,000 sq ft, gallons, ounces, bags — or g N per m², liters, kilograms - Type your area yourself — no map tool to fight - Over-application warnings before you burn the lawn, not after #### Apply windows, powered by Apple weather - Apply check: does today suit this product, given rain, wind, heat and soil temp? - Soil-temperature windows for pre-emergent — the spring one and the fall one - Growing Degree Days tracked for growth-regulator timing - Reminders you can edit, move and dismiss #### The journal - Log an application in two taps: product, dose, date, conditions - A photo log of how the lawn greened up — same corner, month after month - Mow log with height of cut, product inventory, and what the season cost you - Back-date and edit anything. Multiple lawns, front and back. - See how much N you have put down this season against what your grass actually wants #### Your data, your files - iCloud sync between iPhone and iPad - CSV import and export, and a printable PDF season report - Home Screen widgets: next task, today’s apply window - Your journal is never paywalled and never held hostage #### Grass types covered Kentucky Bluegrass · Tall Fescue · Fine Fescue · Perennial Ryegrass · Bentgrass · Bermudagrass · Zoysiagrass · St. Augustine · Centipedegrass · Buffalograss · Bahiagrass · Seashore Paspalum · Kikuyu #### Made for DIYers, first-time homeowners, renovators, transition-zone sufferers — anyone who would rather understand their lawn than hand it to a service. #### What Turfwise won’t do No photo identification. No chatbot. No store. No ads. No account and no sign-up. Always read and follow product labels and local regulations — Turfwise does the math, you make the call. #### Free, and Pro Free forever: your lawn profile, unlimited journal, reminders, mow log, photos, and export of your own data.

Turfwise’s season program covers the whole year step by step: pre-emergent, fertilizing, overseeding, aeration, and weed control. It is built from your grass species, climate zone, and hemisphere, so northern and southern seasons both work. Every step explains why it falls where it does, so you learn your lawn instead of following a generic calendar. Turfwise never recommends a specific product. ### How does the dose calculator work in Turfwise? You enter your measured area and a target rate, and Turfwise gives you the exact amount to put down, in pounds of nitrogen per 1,000 square feet, gallons, ounces, or bags, or in grams of nitrogen per square meter, liters, and kilograms. There is no map tool to measure your lawn for you, so you type the area yourself. The calculator also warns you before an over-application, so you can catch a mistake before it burns your lawn. ### What is included in Turfwise’s free plan versus Turfwise Pro? Turfwise is free forever for your lawn profile, unlimited journal entries, reminders, mow log, photos, and export of your own data. Turfwise Pro unlocks the season program, the dose calculator, apply alerts, cost tracking, CSV and PDF export, and Home Screen widgets. You can choose “Turfwise Pro Monthly,” “Turfwise Pro Yearly,” which is the only plan with a 7-day free trial, or “Turfwise Pro Lifetime,” a one-time purchase with no subscription. ## What’s new in Turfwise Version 1.0 · Released July 30, 2026 The release notes of this version are available on the App Store. ## Turfwise: your questions, answered Something else?
