Smarter Hatching: Why App Updates Matter for Incubator Success

App updates are more than cool new buttons—they’re essential tools that keep every hatch on track. Whether you’re a seasoned breeder or incubating for the first time, June’s Brinsea Connect update adds two features that turn guesswork into confidence.
1 · Power- or Internet-Loss Alerts
If your incubator loses connection for more than 20 minutes, the app now pushes an alert with quick checks to perform. You’ll also get a follow-up when power or Wi-Fi is restored—so you know exactly how long the unit was offline.
2 · Automatic Countdown Reminders
New milestone prompts pop up when it’s time to candle eggs, prep lockdown, or clean the cabinet post-hatch. No spreadsheets, no sticky notes—just timely nudges at the critical moments for best hatch results.
Why These Updates Matter
- No surprise cold snaps: Power-loss alert lets you act fast with a backup heat source.
- Higher hatch rate: Timely candling catches clears early and boosts humidity accuracy.
- Stress-free workflow: Clear, automated reminders mean fewer late-night “Did I forget…?” moments.
Each update keeps your incubator in sync with evolving best practices— making hatching simpler, more user-friendly and ultimately more successful.
