GrainFlow App information
Welcome to the GrainFlow Harvest app support page
Introducing the GrainFlow Mobile App
The GrainFlow app provides you with easy access to grain pricing by site during harvest and important site information.
*Important notice: If you're experiencing systematic errors with our GrainFlow app on your android device, we recommend uninstalling the app and reinstalling the app again from the Google play store.
The GrainFlow app provides ‘cash at silo prices’ and site information during harvest periods for each GrainFlow site.
Please note – For apple iPhone and iPad users, the recent update to iOS8 has caused a small bug in the price search function, restricting price search to Wheat only. A fix is currently underway and a new release will be issued shortly. The app is working correctly for iOS 6 and 7 versions.
With the GrainFlow app you can:
- During harvest periods, quickly and easily access hourly grain and oilseed pricing information at your local GrainFlow site.
- Obtain site based information such as location, contact details, opening times and segregations.
- Compatible with iPhone and Android smartphones and tablets, the GrainFlow app provides you with up to date information 7 days a week to keep you moving over Harvest.

Alternatively you can use the help guide on the GrainFlow site just below.
The app will not work or where can I get technical support?
Please refer to our technical support section at the bottom of the page.
I cannot see any prices or site information for my site - why not? (all I see is pricing is not available)
Prices displayed are cash at silo prices for this season’s crop and will only be available when that GrianFlow site is ready to receive grain. This will align with the harvest period in your location.
When the GrainFlow site is ready, prices will be populated by buyers at the site. Please not that not all buyers will elect to post prices at the same time
Why do I have to accept prices before seeing them in the app?
During harvest prices change regularly, every hour at a minimum. This is standard industry practice that is determined by the grain buyers. Given the frequency of price changes it is important that we advise you the time frame that the prices are relevant for.
