Mobile vs Desktop

Herd Manager is a web app that works in any modern browser. No app store download needed — just visit herdmanager.app on any device.

Mobile Experience​

On phones and small tablets, the app uses a bottom tab bar for the main tabs (Dashboard, Herd, Milk, Breeding, Calendar) with a ⋯ More button for everything else. The interface is optimized for touch with large tap targets and swipe-friendly layouts.

Add to Home Screen

For the best mobile experience, add Herd Manager to your home screen. This gives you a full-screen app experience with an icon on your home screen — just like a native app.

iPhone: Tap the Share button → "Add to Home Screen" Android: Tap the three-dot menu → "Add to Home Screen" or "Install App"

Desktop Experience​

On larger screens, all tabs are visible in a horizontal navigation bar at the top. You get more data visible at once — wider tables, side-by-side comparisons, and expanded charts.

What's the Same Everywhere​

Regardless of device, you get the same features:

  • All goat records and profiles
  • Milk logging and charts
  • Breeding and kidding records
  • Health protocols and events
  • Marketplace and farm profiles
  • Cloud sync and offline mode
  • All reports and printable documents

Herd Manager works best in modern, up-to-date browsers:

  • Chrome (recommended)
  • Safari (iPhone, iPad, Mac)
  • Firefox
  • Edge
