What's New in Apiary Tools

1.6.0

September 12, 2026

Your own bloom calendar. Every bloom check you log at a yard builds a month grid, kept year by year, with first bloom dates side by side. It uses the same grid as the forage calendar, so what you saw sits over what the region expects. Mark a plant "not in my area" and it stops being asked about. Import years of notes from an .ics calendar file. Weather for each yard. The week ahead at the apiary's own location: highs, lows and the chance of rain, in your temperature unit. New forage regions: Ireland, New South Wales, and South Africa (Western Cape and the summer rainfall provinces). The forage map opens straight from the bloom check. Apiary location, made clear. The form now checks the address as you type it and tells you which forage region it landed in, or that it could not be placed. A "Use my location" button fills it from where you are standing. Treatments: logging a product that needs the supers off warns you if any of the chosen hives still have supers on. Offline: two devices editing the same record no longer lose one side. Settings shows the conflict with "Keep mine" and "Use theirs". A photo taken offline waits for the picture before its record goes up. Fixes: dates use your local day everywhere, so tasks no longer read as overdue around midnight. Notes dated in the past land on that date. The app no longer hangs on a stale session at startup. The tip jar recovers from a failed store load. Sign-ins from the app record a location again.
