Description
GDD Tracker is the complete lawn care companion for homeowners and pros who want precision timing and organized records.
Using your location and hyper-local weather data, the app calculates Growing Degree Days (GDD) so you know exactly when to apply pre-emergents, post-emergents, plant growth regulators, fertilizers, and more. But GDD Tracker goes beyond just tracking — it's a full-featured lawn management tool.

No ads. No data selling. Location is used only to fetch local weather. iCloud sync is optional.
How it works:
1. Add your lawn and choose your grass type or set a custom threshold.
2. Set your start date (e.g., last application).
3. Track daily progress as GDD accumulates.
4. Log applications and get notified when it's time to reapply.
Perfect for:
• Homeowners aiming for a healthier, weed-free lawn
• DIY lawn enthusiasts who want precision timing
• Lawn care pros who manage multiple properties and schedules

What's new (v2.2.3)
What's New
• Weather History by Month — The full weather history view now lets you filter by month with a scrollable month picker, plus a summary showing total days and GDD for each month.
• Recurring Application Reminders — Set any reminder to repeat automatically. When you log an application that fulfills a recurring reminder, the next one is created for you. Days-based reminders reset from your actual application date, so early or late logging adjusts naturally. PGR applications default to recurring.
Bug Fixes
• Fixed notifications from deleted lawns — Deleting a lawn now properly cancels all its pending notifications (GDD cycle, spray advisory, pre-emergent, and reapply reminders) and cleans up stored notification state. No more phantom alerts.
