What’s new
Release history of NUCS: what came to the app, version by version. Updates are free and arrive through the App Store and Google Play.
Editing, season, stock and forage
- Inspections, tasks and work records can be edited and deleted; an unfinished inspection is kept as a draft, and a round can start at any hive and skip hives.
- Season summary: total honey and per colony, wintering, feeding and treatments — plus a colony ranking for selection.
- Treatment log as PDF for the vet, and a queen passport.
- Hive tags: a QR code or NFC sticker opens that hive right in the app.
- Stock that deducts sugar when you feed, apiary income and expenses.
- Winter feed: how much each colony still needs, from the last inspection.
- Moving hives to another site, with history kept.
- Forage calendar with photos and bloom dates for your town.
- Work on the whole apiary at once, add several hives at a time, dark theme.
Photos and voice, queen rearing, varroa
- Voice notes and frame photos in inspections — synced between devices.
- Queen rearing: each cell’s path from cup to laying, with dates and reminders.
- Apiary varroa: tests, average infestation vs the seasonal threshold, treat the whole apiary.
- Control tab: swarming, requeening and varroa on one screen.
- Weather in inspections and season dates from your town’s weather.
