Real mowing data, lessons learned, and the journey of building a better lawn care routine.
MowDaddy now pulls soil data from USDA, USGS, and local sources to tell you what's actually under your lawn — drainage class, native pH, elevation, and pre-emergent timing.
My backyard was too wet to mow, so I did what I could. MowDaddy made sure I didn't forget to come back and finish the job — plus my DIY phone mount solution for the zero turn.
I parked the mower, walked inside, and thought I was done. MowDaddy knew better. Here's how coverage tracking and grass height estimation saved me from an embarrassing half-mowed lawn.
We added terrain heatmaps and speed analysis to MowDaddy. Now you can see exactly where the hills are and how fast you're actually mowing.
The GPS tracking got way better. Then my phone fell off the mower. Progress isn't always a straight line.
The first real mow session tracked with MowDaddy. 1,488 GPS points, 2.64 miles, and a max speed of 33 mph. Wait, what?
