Days/weeks/months inconsistency on plant cards

Open 9YbQiuEohUu1 opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

There's a lack of consistency in time units displayed on plant cards:

  • Total plant age ("planted x ago") rounds up to days/weeks/months/years depending on the duration.
  • Current stage (e.g., "x flowering") always uses days.
  • Last watered rounds up to days/weeks/months/years.

Compact card style uses a somewhat different scheme

  • Total plant age - always days.
  • Current stage - always days.
  • Last watered rounds up to days/weeks/months/years.

Would it be possible to use a more consistent approach where all three metrics use the same unit? Preferably days for all three, which would be the most informative in terms of waterings (there's little use in knowing last watering was done "1 week ago" as long as it can mean anywhere from 7 to 13 days).

Even better, can we have a setting that would allow choosing the preferable unit display as suggested in #268 ? Thanks!

I think a setting is a good idea, but won't be something added to the current version of the app.
