A beekeeping log for iPhone: inspections in a minute, re-checks that remind you, the story of every colony and harvests that add up by hive and by season.

What Waxley does.

Walk into each visit knowing what changed since the last one.

Waxley: Inspection screen
  1. Queen, eggs, larvae, capped brood, queen cells and stores in big buttons, with "Not seen" kept apart from "Not checked".

  2. Set a re-check at the end of a visit and get a reminder at the time you choose, hive by hive.

  3. Moves, splits, new queens, swarms and losses on one timeline that follows the bees from hive to hive.

  4. Honey by hive and by season, in kilograms or pounds, with season reports as PDF and CSV.

  5. Print a label for each box; scan it and the hive opens, ready for a new inspection.

How Waxley works.

Waxley is for the beekeeper who keeps their own hives. Walk into each visit knowing what changed since the last one: record what you see in a minute, set a re-check before you close the lid, and follow each colony through moves, splits and new queens.

  1. Open

    Start from the last visit

    Each hive shows its last inspection, its colony and the re-check you set, with the apiary weather.

  2. Inspect

    One minute, gloves on

    Queen, eggs, larvae, capped brood, queen cells and stores, with "Not seen" kept apart from "Not checked".

  3. Close

    Set the re-check

    Choose the days before you close the lid; the reminder comes at the time you picked.

  4. Season

    Count the honey

    Harvests by hive and by season, in kilograms or pounds, with PDF and CSV reports.
