Gardening-Specific Live Chats

Gardenize Launches Live Chat Rooms For Community-Building

— August 4, 2021 — Lifestyle
Gardenize, a Swedish digital gardening platform, has upgraded its popular app, offering premium members a new channel for communication. The update includes live chat rooms, where users can connect with their fellow gardeners in real-time.

The recent upgrade was requested by the app's users, who were looking for new and more immediate ways to converse on the platform. Now, Gardenize users can use the live chat rooms to instantly communicate with their peers, share tips, post photos, and comment on one another's gardens. This upgrade adds greater versatility to the Gardenize app, solidifying it as a legitimate social media platform with features akin to those of Facebook and Instagram. The difference here is that the app caters to an incredibly niche demographic and also functions as a garden management tool. Users can track and monitor their plants, conduct gardening-based research, and create a personal diary.

"Finally, gardeners all over the world have their own platform where they can discuss plants, share gardening thoughts and get tips on how to succeed with growing their own food," said Jenny Rydebrink, founder of Gardenize.
