What's new in Poultry Curve

Every update to the app, day by day, in plain words: what you can do now, what works better and what we fixed.

Helper reads your sheets and WhatsApp group

Helper brings in a whole ledger sheet or your farm's WhatsApp group in one go, advance wallets track money given for farm work and slow phones run faster.

New

  • Munshi is now called Helper. The farm job "munshi" keeps its name, and old links open Helper.
  • Send Helper a ledger sheet (Excel, CSV or a pasted table): it turns every row into an expense, checks it against the sheet's own totals and saves it all with one tap. Undo takes it all back. A flock's costs are split over its sheds by the chicks placed.
  • Send Helper your farm's WhatsApp group chat: it reads the daily reports (deaths, feed, water, weight, medicine, vaccines, chick arrivals, sales), shows you a preview and saves them, with Undo.
  • Advance wallets: give money to a person for farm work, they write what they spent and where, and the app shows what is left. Only the owner, an admin or that person can add to it.
  • Arrange Home: change the order of the cards, hide them or change their size, on each phone.
  • New price: Rs 2,500 per shed a month, 12 months for the price of 10, and a 2-month free trial with 300 Helper credits for new businesses.

Better

  • The app opens faster on slow phones, typing and long lists are smoother, and Home charts load only when you scroll to them.
  • Shorter forms and tighter lists on phones. In the supervisor app every question fits a small phone screen.
  • The supervisor app now has the Team, Helper, full past days and the complete daily log.
  • Messages sent from the website's Contact page reach the Poultry Curve team in one place.

Fixed

  • Helper answers farm and shed questions again, replies to "how are you", makes 2 sheds in every farm when you ask, and never shows a count as money.
  • Removed the notice above the Helper chat, reading answers aloud (voice messages stay) and the "Showing: All farms" strip.
  • Health case and low feed alerts name the flock clearly.

  • Add the market (announced) rate to a sale and see how much less you got per kg and per bird.

Better

  • The app opens faster: it loads one language instead of three, and a form loads only when you open it.
  • Less clutter: repeated cards are hidden, and a choice with only one option is not shown.
  • Helper answers money questions over both flocks and understands when someone leaves the team.
  • Helper has a welcome sheet with pictures, and every Helper reply ends with two clear buttons.

Open this update

Start in three screens and talk to Helper

Pick your language, set up the farm in one step and reach Home in three short screens. Talk to Helper by voice in Urdu, Roman Urdu or English.

New

  • A new start: choose your language first, set up the farm in one step and reach Home in three short screens. Add the first flock and the first record from a card on Home.
  • Your first daily log is a short count with pictures: deaths, feed, water and weight, one shed after another.
  • Join links: send a link and your staff join your team.
  • Talk to Helper: speak in Urdu, Roman Urdu or English. Your words wait in the box so you can check them before you send.
  • Report a wrong Helper answer with one button.
  • Privacy, terms and delete account pages on the website, ready for Google Play.

Better

  • Helper asks clear, numbered questions, needs a clear yes before it saves, and replies in your language.
  • Helper shows one card at a time. When you correct something it starts that entry again, and days already saved stay saved.
  • The Poultry Curve team sees the activity of each customer, so support can help you faster.

Fixed

  • Helper fixes after tests on real farm questions.

Staff payroll and Helper writes your entries

Pay daily-wage and permanent staff, let Helper write entries for you after you say yes, start a new flock in all sheds at once and delete your account.

New

  • Payroll for daily-wage and permanent staff, with clear money words and the same amounts on every screen.
  • Helper can do the work for you: say it in your own words, Helper fills in the entry and saves it only after you say yes.

  • One party can pay another party for you, and traders can see their margin.
  • Pair shed devices with your phone over Bluetooth.
  • Delete my account, in the app and on the website, and a privacy policy page.

Better

  • Icons and Urdu text show even with no internet.
  • Helper reads a plain "yes" or "no" correctly, matches Urdu names more carefully and shows phone numbers only when you ask.
  • Helper only looks at the farms you are allowed to see.
  • After too many tries the app says "Try again in N minutes", and the sign-in error is in Urdu too.

Fixed

  • Helper no longer saves anything after a "no", and it says clearly when a step did not work.

New phone design, Urdu and one farm picker

A new phone design with a side menu and a big add button, the whole app in Urdu and Roman Urdu, one farm and flock picker and a simple supervisor app.

New

  • The whole app in Urdu and Roman Urdu as well as English. Your language is saved to your account, and you change it from the side menu.
  • New phone design: one top bar, a side menu, a big + button to add, and totals at the top of each list.
  • One Farm and Flock picker. Every list, sale, cost and the Home page follow the farm or flock you pick.

  • Supervisor app: a calm, simple app for the person at the shed, who sees only the farms they are allowed to see.
  • Chick arrivals, reminders, a support page and plan requests.
  • Staff can be farm staff or office staff, and a partner can be for one farm or the whole business.

Better

  • Sign-up asks only for your name, phone, password and business name, with an easy country code search.
  • PDFs and WhatsApp shares open your phone's own share menu.
  • App updates arrive by themselves, and Refresh is safe without internet: what you saved stays.
  • Long lists come page by page, wide tables turn into cards on phones, and large amounts are written "Cr" for crore.

Fixed

  • The Back button takes you to where you were, and Home numbers match the farm you picked.

New name, egg report and a record of changes

The app becomes Poultry Curve, sign-up checks your phone by SMS, layer farms get an egg report, every change is recorded and more screens work offline.

New

  • The app is now called Poultry Curve.
  • Sign-up and "forgot password" check your phone number with an SMS code. You can also sign out on every phone at once.
  • Egg report for layer farms: eggs by grade, hen-day percentage, eggs per hen and feed per dozen eggs, week by week.
  • A record of every change: who changed what and when, with the old and the new value. Owners can filter it and download it.
  • Screens you have not opened yet still work without internet, because the app keeps them ready in the background.

Better

  • Feed left and birds ready to sell are at the top of Home, money words are plainer, and a vaccine is marked done with one tap.
  • On phones, sales and costs show as cards, so the amount and what is still due are always in view.
  • Bigger buttons and cleaner screens on phones and tablets.
  • If you sign out while some entries are not sent yet, the app warns you first.

Fixed

  • In the daily log, today no longer counts as a missed day before the day is over.
  • Party khata: the opening balance comes first, and a payment without an account goes to cash in hand.
  • A return now gives the money back on the khata, and paying more than is owed is stopped.
  • Weekly FCR is the same on the screen and in the PDF.
