What's New in Herdcount
1.5.2
October 21, 2026
Counts big flocks properly. Herdcount now looks over a photo section by section as well as all at once. A flock spread across a paddock used to lose its far-off animals because they were too small to make out. Now they are found: on one test photo of a large flock, the count went from 14 to 173. Close-up photos count the same as before. "Last time" on every count. Count the same flock again and Herdcount shows what you counted last time and the difference, so you can see at a glance whether they are all there. It remembers what you called each flock, too. Dark cattle are no longer missed.
