NUCS — Beekeeper's Journal

Artur Rostriga

About this app

This app replaces the paper apiary journal. Everything works offline — you don't need a signal at the apiary.

An inspection in half a minute. Large buttons, no keyboard: you can enter everything one-handed, wearing gloves. Fields you don't touch stay empty instead of turning into zeros.

The app remembers for you. Saw swarm cells — it reminds you to check in three days. Treated for varroa — it won't let you harvest before the withdrawal period ends. Haven't inspected a colony for ten days in season — it tells you.

Full history of every colony. Inspections, works, moves between hives, queen replacements — in one timeline. Charts of colony strength and brood through the season.

Swarming under control. Risk is calculated from your inspection: swarm cells, crowding, queen age. The apiary map shows which hive to walk to first.

Your data stays yours. Records live on your device. Export to CSV or a full backup whenever you want. Apiary coordinates never leave the device. Sync between devices happens only if you sign in yourself.

For hobbyists and small operations: from one colony to fifty.
