Waffle plant watering.

Do you trust the app for your watering needs? My waffle plants seems very crunchy. It’s a new plant to me so I’m not sure. I’ve read that it’s best to keep the soil moist but I believe this app is saying wait 7 days between watering. What do you think?
15ft to light, indirect
6” pot with drainage

I don’t trust the app until I’ve micromanaged it for about six months lol! Is the soil getting completely dry before you water? Does it have access to humidity?
@MamaLinne yes it’s getting very dry. Idk about added humidity but in my state we have very very high humidity naturally.
@Platingnewbie if your soil is well draining, it might be worth increasing your watering slowly and see how it goes (maybe every 5-6 days). I had a very thirsty plant that I couldn’t keep up with so I am experimenting with wick style self watering pot- so far, so good- it’s pretty happy!
Mine seems happier with this method over others but still has brown crispy edges bout to just give up on it
No not at all
