Download the App
Kilnside is available for Android. Your farm administrator will provide you with a download link or APK file.
Sign In
- Open the Kilnside app
- Enter your email and password
- Tap Sign In
The app will connect and download your farm data. This first sync may take a minute depending on how many animals and events are on your farm.
What You'll See
After signing in, you'll land on the Chat tab. This is your main workspace — you can speak, type, or scan tags here.
At the bottom of the screen you'll see five tabs:
| Tab | What it does |
|---|---|
| Chat | Talk to Kilnside, record events, see confirmations |
| Animals | Browse and search your livestock |
| Events | View recent events across your farm |
| Map | See where your animals and fields are |
| Settings | Manage your device, pair a wand, check sync status |
Download the Speech Model
For voice input to work offline, Kilnside needs a small speech model on your phone.
- Go to Settings
- Under Speech Model, tap Download
- Wait for the download to finish (about 40MB on WiFi)
Once downloaded, voice recording works anywhere — no phone signal needed.
