Overview
Point at a plant, hive, animal, customer or building with the Scan tool in hand. It lights up with a golden ring and a floating marker, and its name shows beside the pointer. Click or tap it to open its stat card: what it is, how it's doing and what it needs, with buttons to act on it.
What a stat card shows
- Plants: the cultivar, its needs, and buttons for 💧 Water, ✂️ Harvest (when it's in bloom and ready) and 🔎 Full inspection. Pests on the plant are named plainly at the top, with Read more for what they are and how to get rid of them.
- Hives: colony strength, varroa mite level (treat above about 3%), whether a honey super is on, and a button to open the Apiary.
- Animals, visitors, buildings and other things: a short description.

- Discoveries are remembered in this browser, so each kind only pays once per device.
- Scanning on a farm you are visiting shows cards but gives no XP.
- Scan is the only tool that still works while your tool kit is set down.
