beekeeping app
Beekeeping app for inspections, tasks, and hive records
HiveAware is a browser-based beekeeping app: open the same records on an iPhone, Android phone, tablet, or computer without downloading separate versions. Inspections, tasks, and QR-assisted hive visits stay organized by apiary and hive.
Inside the app
See what happened. Know what comes next.
Inspections, mite counts, treatments, tasks, harvests, queen notes, and photos build a useful history for every hive. Open it before the next visit and pick up where you left off.
- Hive 14 — inspected 3 days ago — 1 open task
- Hive 22 — mite check recorded — follow-up Friday
- Hive 31 — harvest added — no open tasks

Sample yard workflow
Move from scan to record to follow-up
A typical yard visit can start by scanning the hive lid card, opening the inspection workflow, recording the colony condition, then saving follow-up tasks or treatment details before leaving the apiary.
- Scan the hive QR card
- Record the inspection at the colony
- Create the next action before moving on
Record artifacts
Keep proof of field work in one place
HiveAware helps preserve the practical artifacts beekeepers need later: inspection history, dated photos, mite sample details, treatment records, harvest notes, task history, and exported records when records need to be reviewed outside the app.
- Dated inspection history
- Photos and mite samples
- Exportable account records
Questions beekeepers ask before choosing beekeeping app
What should a beekeeping app track?
A practical beekeeping app should track apiaries, hives, inspections, queen status, brood, stores, mite counts, treatments, tasks, harvest records, photos, and field notes.
Can I use HiveAware for one or two hives?
Yes. HiveAware supports personal apiaries, so a beekeeper can start with a small number of hives and add more structure later.
How does HiveAware help during an actual hive visit?
HiveAware keeps each hive record close to the field workflow. A beekeeper can use a mobile device, scan a lid QR card where configured, open the correct hive, enter inspection details, and save tasks or treatment notes while the visit is still fresh.
Does HiveAware only store short notes?
No. HiveAware supports structured inspection fields, long-form notes, photos where enabled, tasks, treatments, harvest records, queen work, and apiary-level context so records stay useful after the day they are entered.
Can I get records out of HiveAware later?
HiveAware includes export workflows so users can preserve their beekeeping records or review them outside the app when needed.
Can HiveAware replace a paper beekeeping notebook?
HiveAware is designed to replace scattered notebooks and spreadsheets with structured apiary, hive, inspection, treatment, harvest, task, and field-note records.
Does HiveAware support field use away from a desk?
Yes. Open HiveAware on a phone or tablet and keep recording in supported browsers when service is weak or unavailable. Saved work syncs after the device reconnects.
Can HiveAware use QR codes on hive lids?
Yes. HiveAware can generate a printable hive lid sheet with a QR code and stable hive details. Scanning it opens a glove-friendly choice between starting an inspection or viewing hive info for authorized users.
