Field hive counts now take seconds.
With Kovan IQ's hive count feature, mark every hive in the field by scanning its barcode or searching by name; bring the margin for error close to zero with duplicate-scan and missing-hive alerts.
Every step of hive counting
Count by Barcode
Complete your count session in seconds by scanning the barcodes assigned to your hives.
Search by Name
No barcode? Search by hive name/number and mark it instantly.
Duplicate-Scan Alert
If you mark a hive twice, the app warns you instantly to prevent double-counting.
Missing Hive List
When the count is done, check a summary list showing which hives weren't counted.
Ideal for Large Apiaries
Speeds up field checks in apiaries with hundreds of hives, and helps you spot lost or stolen hives early.
Works Offline
Your count session keeps running without interruption even with no internet in the field — data stays on your device.
