ApiNote · Hive QR codes

The right hive record. One scan away.

Several similar boxes should not mean several chances to choose the wrong record. A printed label gives the physical hive a clear route back to its history.

Free for up to 5 hives

01

Generate labels for your hives

Create QR output from the apiary tools, save it and print the labels you need.

02

Keep a readable identifier

Use the hive number alongside the code. A visible identifier remains useful when a label is dirty or the camera cannot read it.

03

Check, then record

Scan through ApiNote and verify the selected hive before adding an inspection or another activity.

Put it to work

A clear next step.

Use QR hive labels and apiary maps in ApiNote
  1. Generate hive QR labels in the apiary and save the output.
  2. Print and test one label before preparing the full set; protect it from weather without obscuring the code.
  3. Use the app’s scan action, verify the hive and open the work you want to record.

Before you start

One important detail.

Should I still print the hive number?

Yes. Keep a clear human-readable identifier with the code and verify the physical hive before recording work.
