You can enter your plants into a database that creates a plant diary for you. You follow the calendar and notifications in order to know when to water each plant for example.

Stadia
This is Google’s main new gaming app and it works by streaming games online. This is perfect if you’re into video games because you can play them anywhere on your phone. Stadia allows AAA, console and PC games to be transferred to any device without using any hardware. Google does all the work for you and streams the game off the internet. Stadia also has a range of accessibility options so if you’re hard of hearing, for example, you can learn more about what you can do with a hearing aid.
Unrd
Unrd is a new app that is quite unique. It’s quite similar to a game in some respects and is based around characters and a story. In a sense you get to live as a different person, you become a character and enter into their life. There is even a fake phone interface on-screen which belongs to your character. A story is then unraveled and they are the protagonist. You then receive messages for them which you can open and read. There are also multimedia messages such as video, audio, and photos. The messages also arrive in real-time, and this can continue over a number of days, thus engaging you in the story.
