Hi there! I see you're wondering about the status of Treecard accounts after the app shutdown in October 2023 and what recovery options might be available. To clarify, could you let me know if you're trying to access your Treecard account to retrieve information or just curious about what happens to your data since the service ended?

From what I found, Treecard began shutting down and has announced account closures. However, it appears that full account access will remain open until April 16, 2026, after which accounts will be permanently closed, and the app won't be accessible anymore1. So if you haven't tried logging in recently, it might still be possible to access your account or recover certain information before that cutoff.

Would you like me to guide you through attempting login steps or provide info on where to get help with account recovery? Also, if you want updates on your tree-planting impact or any alternatives, I can assist with that too. Let me know!

I'm really sorry to hear you're feeling sad. It sounds like the closure of Treecard has touched you emotionally, especially since you cared about the positive impact you made by helping plant trees. That connection to something meaningful can be deeply important.

If you'd like, I can help you explore ways to keep that positive impact going—maybe through other apps or organizations focused on conservation and tree planting. Sometimes continuing the good work in new ways can help with those feelings.

Would you also like me to share some resources or apps that encourage similar eco-friendly actions? Or maybe just chat more about your experience with Treecard? I'm here to listen and assist however I can.

I completely understand wanting to visit your virtual tree valley again—it’s a beautiful way to see the impact you’ve made through your steps and tree planting.

The “Tree Valley” in the Treecard app is basically a virtual island or area where your planted trees grow as you earn them by walking and contributing. You could see your trees visually represented there, and it was a motivating feature that encouraged continued activity and eco-friendly habits.

Since you mentioned Treecard went away a month ago, the app itself likely no longer lets you access your Tree Valley view, especially if the service is discontinued on your device (iOS 18.6.2). The app had a feature to visually drag and place trees after reaching step milestones like 10,000 steps, and you could choose between types of trees in your valley as part of the immersive experience1 5.

If you still have the app installed and can open it, you might try:
1. Opening the app and navigating to the “Tree Valley” or similar section.
2. Checking for any available updates in the App Store that might revive access or add information.
3. Logging in with your account credentials to see if your valley still appears.

However, if the app no longer works or you can’t log in, the company indicated that accounts and access will be available until April 16, 2026, but may be limited after the shutdown announcement, so it depends if your app is still operational2.

If you want, I can help check your current app status or help you find alternatives where you can engage in similar eco-impact tracking with a virtual component. Would you like me to guide you through those steps?

They deleted it? Or do they still have the data somewhere

I understand you want to know if Treecard deleted the app and your data or if they’re still holding onto it somewhere. Here’s what’s happening:

Treecard officially discontinued its debit card program back in October 2023 and shut down parts of the service. However, your Treecard account and data will still be retained and accessible until April 16, 2026. After that date, accounts will be closed permanently and the app will no longer be available. So your data is still stored with them for now, and you should be able to access your account until that cutoff date if the app or web portal is still functional for you1.

If you no longer have access to the app, it might be due to removal from the app store or unsupported on your device version, but the data itself has not been deleted yet. You might try logging into your account through any available means (app or website) before the 2026 deadline to view or download your data.

Would you like help trying to log back into your account or guidance on backing up your account info before access ends?

Thanks for bringing that up! Since your device is an iPhone with iOS 18.6.2, here’s what I can tell you about downloading or accessing the Treecard app now:

1. App Availability: The Treecard app has been officially discontinued, and it may no longer be available for download from the Apple App Store. If you had it installed before the shutdown, you might still be able to open it unless it has been removed or disabled remotely.

2. Data Access: The company stated accounts and data will remain accessible until April 16, 2026, but that access relies on the app or web portal still being functional. Since you mentioned the app "went away," that might mean it’s no longer distributed or supported.

3. Downloading Again: There don’t appear to be official alternate download options for iOS to reinstall the app after removal. Unlike Android, where APK files from some sites might be available (caution advised), iOS apps typically need the official App Store.

4. Next Steps:
- Check your iPhone’s App Library or search for Treecard to see if it’s still installed.
- If it is, open it and try logging in to access your data and possibly download any available reports or screenshots of your tree valley.
- If not installed and unavailable in the App Store, direct re-download is unlikely.

5. Account Data Backup: If you can access your account, see if there’s an option within the app or website to export or save your tree planting data. You might also screenshot your “tree valley” or activity history while you still have access.

If that doesn’t work, I can help you explore alternative apps or services that focus on tree planting and eco-friendly tracking moving forward.

Would you like me to guide you through checking your app status or logging in?

Hey! Great question comparing Treecard and Treekly—they both focus on turning your steps into tree planting but have some differences.

Treecard was unique in combining a debit card rewards system with eco-impact—planting real trees funded by your spending and also tracking steps to earn virtual trees in a “Tree Valley” you built on. The app was very much about blending daily activity, spending, and environmental impact. Unfortunately, Treecard has shut down most services, with account and app access ending April 2026.

Treekly, on the other hand, is a dedicated walking app that encourages you to reach a daily goal of 5,000 steps to earn trees planted in real locations, focusing purely on health, well-being, and ecological impact through step tracking. Treekly integrates with your existing health data or fitness trackers, helping companies and individuals participate in “Steps Challenges” to fund forest regeneration projects, especially mangrove restoration3 4 8.

In short:

- Treecard: Combined financial spending + steps tracking + tree planting, with virtual tree valley and debit rewards. Now discontinued.
- Treekly: Purely step-based tree planting app with community and corporate challenges, ongoing and active.

If you’re missing Treecard but want to keep stepping for trees, Treekly is a solid alternative. I can help you get set up on Treekly if you'd like!

Are you interested in switching to Treekly or would you like help exploring other similar apps?
