**Know every hive, every visit.**

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.

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

Every hive keeps its last inspection, its colony and the re-check you set, so the next visit starts where the last one ended.

- Inspections in a minute
- Re-checks with reminders
- Harvests by hive and by season

## Features

### Inspections in a minute

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

### Re-checks that remind you

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

### Every colony’s story

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

### Harvests that add up

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

### QR hive labels

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

## How it works

1. **Start from the last visit** (Open): Each hive shows its last inspection, its colony and the re-check you set, with the apiary weather.
2. **One minute, gloves on** (Inspect): Queen, eggs, larvae, capped brood, queen cells and stores, with "Not seen" kept apart from "Not checked".
3. **Set the re-check** (Close): Choose the days before you close the lid; the reminder comes at the time you picked.
4. **Count the honey** (Season): Harvests by hive and by season, in kilograms or pounds, with PDF and CSV reports.
