BeeYard — Beekeeping Planner

Beekeeping runs on a precise, unforgiving seasonal calendar. Missing just one critical window—whether it is a swarm-control check in spring, a summer mite wash, or feeding sugar syrup before the first winter frost—can cost you an entire colony. When you are balancing a busy week, it is easy for vital hive maintenance to slip by unnoticed.
BeeYard is here to help you stay ahead of the colony cycle.
Step into your animated virtual apiary, a welcoming meadow centered on your phone. Here, you can place and arrange your custom hives, watching animated bee swarms buzz relative to each colony's strength. The visual state of your wooden boxes reflects their real health: if a hive has been neglected or requires treatment, a prominent warning indicator reminds you immediately. Arrange your meadow, check on your bees, and keep everything stable at a glance.
Behind the scenes works an automatic, smart task generator. By reading the current date and your individual hive examination histories, BeeYard schedules the exact chore you need right when you need it. You will see a swarm-control inspection prompt in May, ventilation checks during the heat of July, oxalic acid treatments as brood levels drop in autumn, or food store weight estimates in winter. Experience a fully tailored care routine without setting up complex sheets.
When a crucial seasonal chore becomes due, BeeYard sends a real Android notification straight to your screen. You will never have to worry about missing an autumn feeding or a hive insulation check, even if you do not open the app for days.
Brush up on your apiary knowledge with our built-in beekeeping quiz. Every 5-question round tests your practical bee wisdom with immediate feedback and extensive biological explanations. It is the perfect tool for beginners to understand the "why" behind spring queen checks, and a quick refresher for experienced beekeepers keeping their skills sharp.
Track your apiary journey with the weekly statistics dashboard. View your overall task completion rates, log physical inspection dates, monitor quiz accuracy, and watch your 7-day progress charts grow. Keep a daily streak alive as you actively tend to your hives.
