## What is Goat Companion?

Kidding season, FAMACHA checks, medication withdrawal windows, who's due to freshen — goat keeping runs on records, and Goat Companion is built to keep them without a cloud account or a subscription in sight.

No account. No cloud. No ads.

KNOW YOUR HERD

• Individual goat profiles — name, breed, sex, birthdate, tag/ear-notch, dam/sire lineage, and photo
• Herd list with quick filters and search
• Weight tracking with ADG (average daily gain) calculated automatically

HEALTH, DONE RIGHT

• FAMACHA scoring with history, so you can spot a parasite problem before it's a crisis
• Medication tracker with automatic withdrawal-period warnings for milk and meat — critical for food safety
• Health event log — illness, injury, vet visits, vaccinations, and hoof trims, all in one history
• Herd health score computed from events, medication status, and check-in recency
• Health-check reminders per goat at your chosen interval
• Shareable PDF herd health reports for your vet

BREEDING & KIDDING

• Breeding records and pregnancy tracking with due-date countdowns
• Kidding logs — litter size, birth weights, complications, and outcomes, linked back to dam and sire
• Reproduction history per doe, so you can plan next season with real data

MILK, FEED, AND FIBER

• Milk production log with per-goat and per-day totals, and yield trends over time
• Feed inventory with supplements, low-stock alerts, and reorder reminders
• Fiber records for shearing dates, weights, and grades — built for fiber-breed keepers

TASKS, MONEY, AND MEMORY

• Daily, weekly, and monthly task reminders — recurring or one-off, with suggested tasks for kidding season and shearing
• Income and expense tracking with running totals, so you can see whether your herd pays for itself
• Journal — date-stamped entries linked to a goat or the whole herd, searchable by keyword or tag, with optional voice input
• Photo gallery organized into albums
• Local weather so you can plan kidding checks and shearing around the forecast
• App Lock — protect sensitive areas with your fingerprint, face, or device passcode
• Full data export to CSV, plus a printable herd project book (PDF) for 4-H and FFA records

BACK UP YOUR RECORDS, YOUR WAY

Create a backup archive of your entire herd on request — optionally password-protected — and hand it to your device's own share sheet to save wherever you like or move to a new phone. We never see it or receive a copy.

GOAT COMPANION PRO

A single one-time purchase unlocks the full app: breeding and kidding records, fiber tracking, financial reports and CSV export, the printable herd project book, and journal photo attachments. Pay once — it's yours forever. No subscription, nothing to renew.

YOUR DATA STAYS ON YOUR DEVICE

Goat Companion is local-first by design. Every goat profile, health record, medication entry, and journal note is stored on your phone and nowhere else. There's no account to create, no server to sync to, and no analytics watching what you do.

The app only reaches the network for three things: validating a Pro purchase (RevenueCat); fetching a local forecast if you view the weather widget (your approximate location goes to Open-Meteo, which doesn't retain it); and transcribing voice input if you use it (audio is processed in real time by your device's built-in speech recognition and isn't stored by us). All three are optional or tied to a feature you choose to use.

Supports Nubians, Boers, Nigerian Dwarves, Angoras, and every other dairy, meat, and fiber breed.
