QR Codes

Open the right record from the field

Give every asset a unique QR code, scan from Home or Assets, print labels with Pro, and keep records reachable offline.

A QR code for every asset

Every asset in Homestead Keeper gets a unique QR code. That means a chicken coop, well pump, gate, generator, hive, raised bed, water tank, tool cabinet, mower, or fence line can point directly to the record that matters.

QR codes make the app feel less like office software and more like a field tool. Instead of searching for a record while standing at the pump or coop, scan and open the right asset.

Print labels with Pro

Pro unlocks printable QR label sheets from Settings. Labels can be attached where they make sense: inside a coop door, near a well control, on a gate post, in a greenhouse, on equipment, or beside a storage shelf.

Printed labels are especially useful when multiple people help with chores. A scan can bring up notes, reminders, documents, and log history without needing to explain where a record lives.

Scan from Home or Assets

Scanning is available from the Home screen or Assets area, so QR workflows are easy to reach. The flow is meant for everyday use, not a buried utility.

Because Homestead Keeper works offline, QR scanning is useful in the places homesteads actually have weak signal: barns, fields, outbuildings, basements, cellars, wooded fence lines, and remote pump houses.

Codes survive backup and restore

QR codes are tied to asset records, so they are designed to survive backup and restore. That matters because labels may be physically attached to equipment or structures for years.

Use cases are broad: open a pump maintenance history, check a gate repair log, scan a hive before an inspection, review chicken coop notes, or pull up a raised bed history before planting.
