Upload via Bee WiFi

Step 1 - Connect your wallet

  • Open Bee Maps App

  • Go to Settings

  • Click on Connect Wallet

Step 2 - Connect Bee Maps App to your Bee

The Bee Maps app can be used to upload mapping data captured by the Bee to the Hivemapper Network. When using this method, the Bee Maps app acts as a bridge between your Bee device and the Hivemapper Network.

  • Connect Bee Maps to your Bee

  • Once connected, the app will begin downloading collected data from your Bee (blue progress bar) to your mobile device.

Step 3 - Upload map data from your phone

The turquoise progress bar indicates the upload process. There are two ways to upload from your phone.

  • Upload via WiFi

    • By default, the app will wait for a trusted Wi-Fi network (like your home or office) to begin uploading to the Hivemapper Network.

    • Uploads happen automatically in the background.

  • Upload via cellular data

    • Enable the option in the Bee Maps app > Settings > App

    • Toggle the “Use iPhone Cellular Data” button to start uploading via your phone’s cellular data plan.
