Are you able to input treatment records such as vaccinations en masse or do they need to be put in individually? If this is the first year that I’ll be using the app, can I input historical years to have the info all together? Will you be adding a feature that allows a photo of the cow or calf? Thanks!

Hi Dana, you can enter vaccines by book if you would like. If you press and hold on any record in a particular book, you will see a quick menu. From there, there is a batch vaccines button that allows you enter records for the whole group. You can enter past years’ information if you like, just create a book for each year! Right now, we are not planning on adding the ability to upload a photo.
