TRACK EVERYTHING
- Organize apiaries and hives, with photos, status, and full history
- Quick Check or guided Full Inspection — with hands-free voice mode
- Log mite washes and treatments; the app schedules your next check automatically
- Record harvests, feedings, weights, queen events, and equipment
STAY AHEAD OF VARROA

- Home-screen widget for hives, apiaries, and mite checks due
ON YOUR WRIST (Apple Watch)
- Your beekeeping to-dos and mite checks due, right on your watch
- Add a complication to keep today's tasks on your watch face

WEATHER THAT WORKS FOR BEES
- Per-apiary conditions and inspection readiness
- Alerts for cold, heat, wind, rain, and frost — with a season archive
WORK AS A TEAM
- Share an apiary, assign tasks, and see who did what in the Activity Log
- Everything syncs across iPhone, Apple Watch, Android, and the web dashboard
MEET ABBY, YOUR AI BEEKEEPING ASSISTANT (Advanced)
- Ask anything about hive management, varroa, queens, diseases, and seasonal tasks
- Attach a photo — "is this the queen?", "what disease is this?", "is this normal?" — and Abby describes what she sees, her confidence, and how to verify it
- Abby always reminds you that AI photo ID isn't always correct and points you to trusted resources like your state apiary inspector and local extension office
Apiary Assistant offers optional Standard and Advanced subscriptions. Abby's AI chat and photo analysis are part of the Advanced plan. Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the period; manage or cancel in your Apple Account settings.
