## What is Tarantuverse?

Tarantuverse is a husbandry tracker built for invertebrate keepers — a calm, organized home for your whole collection and the care that goes into it.
Whether you keep a single sling or a room full of enclosures, Tarantuverse helps you remember what matters: when each animal last ate, when it molted, when the substrate was changed, and how it's growing over time.
KEEP YOUR WHOLE COLLECTION
Track many invertebrates in one place — tarantulas, scorpions, centipedes, whip spiders, vinegaroons, true spiders (including jumping spiders), millipedes, mantises, and roaches. Every animal gets its own profile with photos, husbandry details, and a full history.
LOG THE CARE THAT COUNTS

Feeding logs — what you offered, accepted or refused
Molt logs — with optional measurements to track growth
Substrate changes and enclosure notes
Smart feeding reminders so nobody gets forgotten

UNDERSTAND YOUR ANIMALS

Premolt predictions from feeding patterns and molt history
Growth charts built from your molt measurements
Feeding stats and collection insights

SPECIES CARE SHEETS
Browse 300+ species care sheets across all nine groups — temperament, temperature and humidity ranges, enclosure guidance, feeding by life stage, and honest safety and venom notes. Search and filter by care level, and link an animal to its species to compare your setup against the guide. New species are added regularly.
PHOTOS & QR LABELS
Build a photo timeline for each animal. Generate printable QR enclosure labels and upload photos straight from your phone by scanning the label.
A COMMUNITY OF KEEPERS
Share a public profile, follow other keepers, join the forums, and message fellow hobbyists. Keep your collection private or public — your call.
YOUR DATA, YOUR CALL
Export your full collection anytime and delete your account whenever you like. We keep care and species information honest — if we don't know something, we leave it blank rather than guess.
Tarantuverse is free to use. Premium unlocks an unlimited collection and advanced analytics for serious keepers and breeders.
We're a small, growing project built by a keeper who wanted a better way to care for these incredible animals — adding species and features all the time. We'd love to have you along.
Happy keeping.

Smoother typing everywhere: the keyboard no longer covers the text field you're using.
Messaging fixes: the conversation menu (Report, Block, View Profile) works again, and chat headers are cleaner.
Collection upgrades: every animal counts toward your totals (not just tarantulas), feeding-status badges on the list, tidier rows, and quick taxon filters.

Stay current easily: pull the latest version anytime from Settings → Check for Updates.
The Profile tab is now "Settings," plus lots of polish and bug fixes throughout.

### 1.5 — 2026-04-28

Big update!!

- Premolt prediction is now live. Open any tarantula's profile to see
  whether they're likely entering premolt, with a confidence rating
  based on feeding refusals and molt history.
- 100+ species in the care-sheet library, most with curated photos
  from Wikimedia Commons (full attribution included).
- QR enclosure labels — print one per enclosure, scan to upload
  feeding/molt photos without unlocking your phone.
- Achievements: 18 badges to earn across collection size, feeding
  streaks, molt-witness count, breeding milestones, and community
  participation.
- Universal search (tap the magnifier in the tab bar): jump to any
  tarantula, species, keeper, or forum thread instantly.
- Direct messaging is faster — your sent messages appear instantly
  with optimistic delivery, and the conversation no longer scrolls
  away from you when new replies arrive.
- Smart feeding reminders adjust to each species' published feeding
  cadence per life stage, so a sling and an adult get appropriately
  different schedules.
- "Last fed" badges now reflect the last accepted feeding instead of
  the last attempt — a refused offer is tracked as a refusal, not a
  feeding.
- Dark mode polish across collection cards, public keeper profiles,
  and species sheets.
