Frequently Asked Questions
How do I log a calving?
Tap "Log Calving" on the home screen, select the dam, enter the date (defaults to today), and fill in calf details. The calf record is automatically created and linked to the dam.
Can I track twins?
Yes! When logging a calving, select "Twins" to record both calves at once.
How does pregnancy tracking work?
Log a preg check from the Herd & Records section, enter the days bred, and the app calculates the due date automatically. View "Preg List" to see all pregnant cows sorted by due date with color-coded urgency badges. You can also run batch preg checks to process multiple cows in one session.
What about withdrawal periods?
When logging treatments, enter the withdrawal days and the app can track the entered date and show reminders. Confirm withdrawal status with your veterinarian and applicable labeling; alerts are not a guarantee of withdrawal safety.
Can I save treatment protocols I use often?
Yes! Treatment templates let you save commonly used protocols (product name, dosage, withdrawal days). When logging a treatment, pick a saved template to pre-fill the fields instantly.
Is my data backed up?
Supported producer records and drafts can be cached or queued on a device and sync after reconnection; conflicts or errors may need review. Uploads and some screens require internet. Farm-user access depends on the plan, not a device allowance. Export availability depends on plan: Pasture none, Starter basic, Standard and Pro full CSV.
Can multiple people access the same farm?
Yes. Your farm administrator can grant access to additional users. Everyone on the team can view and edit the same farm data. If you manage multiple farms, you can switch between them by tapping the farm banner on the home screen.
Does the app have a dark mode?
Yes. Toggle between Light, Dark, or System theme directly from the home screen. Dark mode is easier on the eyes in barns and low-light conditions.
Can I track which pasture my animals are in?
Yes. Create pastures with capacity limits in the Herd & Records section, then assign animals. Color-coded utilization bars show you when a pasture is getting full.
How do I see year-over-year trends?
Open Analytics from the Reports & Tools section. It compares your current year's performance against last year with trend arrows showing improvement or decline for calving counts, birth weights, treatments, and more.
