Ratings and reviews

Love this app! I mostly use it to track egg production. It is super easy, quick, and convenient. Love the data that it displays that is super easy to read/find like how many eggs laid a day, week, month, and year. I am dabbling in the finance section of the app and it is super easy with great easy to read/find data as well. I think the app is a bit pricey, but I'm cheap and hate paying for apps, however, this app is worth the cost.

Started 3 years ago with this app. After the first year, all my data was lost because they upgraded to a new version. Tonight, I went in to add my nightly count, and now all my data is gone again because they have decided to start charging. No warning. Will not continue to use an app that just up and decides to do new versions that delete all my data whenever they feel like it.

So far so good for what it is! I really tried to justify in my mind a yearly subscription fee. The app is handy for keeping notes and tracking egg products and expenses and I could see the value in paying a one time fee for the app. Nothing against the app itself but I'm pretty much over subscription services in general. Honestly there are many other free apps that could do the same thing. After my yearly subscription is up I won't be renewing. Hopefully you guys will offer a free version soon!

What's new

v3.3.1 brings a few Hatching enhancements, including:
* You can now record "quitters", which would be fertile eggs that did not make it to hatch.
* The Active Runs screen now displays the number of eggs set and remaining, taking into account infertile and quitter counts.
* You can now reopen a completed run to make changes.
