Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about Juicy Melons

How accurate is the AI analysis?
Our AI has been trained on thousands of watermelon images and user feedback. While no method is 100% perfect (even experts get it wrong sometimes!), Juicy Melons significantly improves your odds of picking a ripe, sweet watermelon by analyzing multiple indicators that humans often miss.
Does it work offline?
The scanning feature requires an internet connection for AI analysis. However, your saved melons and history are available offline, and we're working on an offline mode for basic analysis in a future update.
Is it really just $2.99?
Yes! $2.99 gives you lifetime access to all features. No subscriptions, no ads, no hidden fees. One bad watermelon costs more than that, so the app pays for itself with your first perfect pick!
What is the field spot and why does it matter?
The field spot is the pale patch where the watermelon sat on the ground while growing. A creamy yellow field spot indicates the melon ripened in the sun. A white or pale green spot means it was picked too early. This is the single most reliable indicator of ripeness!
Does it work on other melons?
Currently, Juicy Melons is optimized specifically for watermelons. We chose to perfect one fruit rather than be mediocre at many. Honeydew and cantaloupe support may come in future updates based on user demand.
Who is Melvin?
Melvin is our friendly capybara mascot! Capybaras are known for their excellent judgment and chill vibes - perfect qualities for a watermelon expert. He guides you through the app and celebrates your perfect picks!
