Everyday problems, calmly solved
See a mixed home get in sync.
The plant nobody watered. The leaf the cat keeps eyeing. The dog who swears dinner never happened. Tendlet connects pets and plants in one shared care plan, with toxicity checks, recommended meal plans, routines, records, and household sync across 216 researched profiles.
Learning while taking care
Care becomes a little field guide, one task at a time.
Tendlet does not ask you to study before you can help. It can draft species-backed starter routines and suggested meal plans where available, then teaches in the flow of the day: a warning beside a plant, a care tip after a meal, a seasonal note when watering changes, a source when you want to read deeper.
Behind it sits a library of nearly 5,000 curated care notes across the 216 profiles — 2,680 "did you know" facts plus care tips, common mistakes, heads-ups, and emergency signs — surfaced one at a time, never as homework.
01
Learn the why
Suggested routines carry context: hay is not just a checkbox, it keeps teeth and digestion working; dry soil is not always neglect, it can be winter rest.
02
Notice patterns
Meals, waterings, symptoms, repots, and photos live with the right pet or plant, so you learn what changed instead of scrolling through a generic log.
03
Read further
Species pages show essentials, common mistakes, welfare flags, and sources, so everyday care can turn into real knowledge when you have a minute.
Everything care needs, in one place
Each pet and plant gets its safety notes, meals, routines, records, and history.
Tendlet connects the living things in your home instead of treating pets and plants as separate chores. A guinea pig, a Monstera, an axolotl, and a dog each surface the right warnings, routines, meal plans, records, sources, and household history.
Animal detail pages
Weight, meds, records, symptoms, warning signs, routines, meals, and species-specific facts live with the right pet.
Plant detail pages
Light, pot, drainage, soil, humidity, seasonal care, issues, repots, progress photos, toxicity, and sources stay attached to the plant.
Recommended meals
Dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, ferrets, reptiles, and fish can start from researched meal plans, then turn them into 7-day feedings and grocery lists.
Axolotl water page
Aquatic and reptile profiles can surface unique fields: water parameters, temperature ranges, UVB, basking, shedding, and emergency flags.
Fun facts & icons
Every profile earns a portrait, plain-language care notes, and small facts that make the living thing feel known.
Household memory
Own-device iCloud sync and Family Share are included, so invited carers can see the same pets, plants, routines, meal progress, and household activity.
i. Scene one · learn the individual
Each pet and plant teaches you how to care for them.
Tap any pet or plant and get a real profile — age, weight trend, the welfare flags vets watch for, suggested routines, and the meal plan they're on when that species has one. Omer's page tells you what Omer needs today, not what guinea pigs need in general.

Researched, cited, and close to the task.
Every care profile includes what they need, the mistakes keepers often miss, warning signs to watch for, and sources you can read when you want more detail. Explore lets you browse all 216 profiles before you add them.

iv. Scene four · plants too
Know which plants belong near which pets.
Plants are part of the household, so Tendlet treats them that way: toxicity notes stay beside the pets they may affect, watering and seasonal care stay in rhythm, and the full toolkit keeps setup, repot history, issues, and progress photos together.

v. Scene five · household memory
Everyone sees what was done, and what still needs doing.
When care is split between people, Tendlet becomes the shared household memory: who fed Omer, who watered Monstera, what changed, and what still needs attention. Own-device iCloud sync and Family Share keep invited carers in the same care plan.
Tasks, routines, and meal progress ripple across invited phones through iCloud
Activity stays attached to the right pet or plant, not a generic feed

Core care stays free
Unlimited folk, care records, meals, plant tools, Family Share, themes, icons, Explore, and own-device iCloud sync stay free. Plus adds four optional ways to review, document, and hand off the care already recorded.
Made with care
Built in Brussels, for the pets and plants we live with.
Tendlet started with two guinea pigs named Pierre and Omer, two Monsteras that kept getting too dry, and a household where neither of us could remember who'd watered last. We wanted a calm place to keep what we'd learned about each one. Not an inbox. Not a streak.
We're a small studio in Belgium. We don't take outside money. Tendlet exists because we wanted to live with it.
— Quentin, Q10 Labs · Brussels
Questions you might be holding
FAQ
Does it work without iCloud?
Yes. Your household care data lives on your device by default. iCloud is opt-in. Own-device sync and Family Share are free when you choose to use iCloud.
What stays free?
Unlimited folk, core care records, routines, meals and meal-plan editing, all plant tools, Family Share, Explore, every theme and alternate app icon, and own-device iCloud sync are free. Tendlet has no ads or in-app analytics SDKs. Optional Tendlet Plus adds Care Review, Care Brief, Care Guides, and Private Species Insights through an Apple auto-renewable subscription.
What does Tendlet Plus add?
Care Review summarizes recorded care into a calm weekly view. Care Brief prepares a shareable household PDF. Care Guides keep exact owner-entered amounts, locations, ordered steps, warnings, and device-local visual references with a routine. Private Species Insights assemble app-authored facts from species-linked records and can optionally rank their exact IDs with Apple's on-device model on supported devices—never generated care advice. The App Store shows the current localized monthly and annual prices before purchase, along with any trial eligibility and Apple Family Sharing availability for your account. Tendlet household sharing stays free and is separate from Apple's subscription sharing.
Are the suggested routines and meal plans automatic?
They are species-backed starting points, not veterinary prescriptions. Tendlet can suggest starter routines for each pet or plant, and meal plans where the app has a supported plan. Preview the 7-day cycle and grocery list before you start tracking, then edit portions, additions, and overrides as needed.
Is there an Android version?
No — Tendlet is iOS only. Own-device iCloud sync and Family Share use CloudKit, which only exists on Apple devices. If one person in your house is on Android they won't be able to join the shared household.
Does it work on iPad and Apple Watch?
iPad: yes at launch, same app, same data via your own iCloud. Apple Watch: on the roadmap — a glanceable Today complication first, full app later.
What languages does it speak?
English, French, and Dutch at launch — Tendlet was made in Brussels, where the three live next to each other on every street sign. The app follows your iPhone's language; switch in Settings → Tendlet → Language if you'd like to override it.
What if I have thirty plants?
Add them all. Tendlet supports unlimited folk, and the full plant toolkit keeps setup, seasonal care, repot history, issue notes, and progress photos attached to the right plant. Today groups same-species chores so a household of thirty pothos reads as one row, not thirty.
What happens if Q10 Labs disappears?
Your household care data lives in your own iCloud account. Plant Identifier uses Pl@ntNet for the scan; optional accuracy feedback is stored only with explicit consent, can be deleted in the app, and is retained for no more than 90 days.
Why do animals and plants use different colors?
The terracotta paw is for animals. The green leaf is for plants. Same tending, different shapes of life.
