Does my legacy account work for the Beekeeper's Companion app?The Beekeeper's Companion app is a standalone application that works independently from HiveTracks legacy software. Therefore, Legacy users should create a new account on The Beekeeper's Companion app. If you have not yet downloaded the new app, you can do so in the App Store and Google Play Store. We are currently developing a data transfer plan to enable a manual migration of various data from legacy accounts onto the new app; the data type is to be determined. If you are interested in data transfer, please leave your name and email below by clicking, "I'm interested in Legacy data transfer."
