## What is The Calving Book Plus?

Experience the ease of keeping track of calf records with The Calving Book Plus. Add calf information such as calf id, birth weight, gender, date, and even comments about the calf. It has never been easier to do! The main functions of this app will even work offline!

Don't worry about losing your calving book. Now you can have it with you at all times with the touch of a button. Plus! you can access your account from any of your devices.

This is a quick way to keep track of calf records. We made it easy for users to access multiple books from the same app. Need to look at last years book? No problem! It won't go away unless you delete it!

Instead of scrolling through a whole list of possibly hundreds of calves, simply search for the one you are looking for and edit it right from the search page!

Not only can you keep track of your calving records, but in this "plus" version, you can keep track of your breeding, preg-checking, and weaning records.

### 3/5 — Offline use

*2024-04-25, version 313*

It should be changed so you can enter new cattle without internet connection. Pain when you’re calving somewhere without cell service

### 1/5 — Good but……

*2023-11-10, version 284*

The only issue I have run into so far is that when I try to delete an animal, it won’t let me.  Am I doing something wrong?

### 1/5 — Stopped working

*2022-03-21, version 263*

Had the trial.  Liked it but once I purchased it, it froze and wont open and says no subscription

### 1/5 — WCC

*2022-01-23, version 263*

Don't wast your time with this app it constantly freezes 
Or won't let you in or says your trial is up after paying for a year subscription I have 2mounths left on my 4th or 5th year off using this aggravating app save yourself the aggravation and use something else

### 1/5 — Subscription Renewal

*2021-04-08, version 263*

Don’t waste your time on this app. We loved this app until the past couple of months which was really frustrating because it’s calving season! I don’t know if it’s because of an update or what, but our subscription says we are paid, but we can’t login. It says our trial is over. Now we have to start over with a different app.😡

### 2/5 — So glitchy!!!

*2021-03-22, version 263*

I tried the trial, liked it so wanted to purchase it. Once I purchased it it still wouldn’t let me access the app and kept saying my trial had ended. Super frustrating when I had entered all my data and now it’s lost! I don’t recommend this app.

### 1/5 — Subscription

*2021-02-28, version 263*

Says my subscription is paid for but will not let me open anything or add anything. Hopefully they fix this so I can get my records off there.

### 1/5 — Won’t upload anything

*2021-02-26, version 263*

I was really excited to try this app however it isn’t working at all

### 2/5 — JP Wagner Angus

*2020-12-19, version 263*

This app really worked well for us! I recently updated it and it now will not let me log in and tells me that my subscription has expired. Bought the year subscription that was to be up in February 2021.  So I don’t get the full subscription and can’t get into my records😡.

### 2/5 — Payed for the app but....

*2020-04-30, version 263*

I payed for this app and it keeps coming up that my trail has ended and no account found
