Get started with this quick guide ⭐
On this page, we’ve gathered all the key steps to get started with Monil—simple, clear, and to the point.
We recommend watching this video, where Ann Elinor, our Head of Farmer Success, shares her top tips for getting started with Monil.
1. Download the app
The first step is to download the app to your phone. Scan the QR code below or search for Monil AS on the App Store or Google Play.
We recommend downloading the app well in advance before releasing your animals to pasture, so you can get familiar with the features.
2. Create an account and set up your organization in the app

3. Turn on the collars
To turn on the collar, press and hold the button on the back. When the light blinks green twice, it’s turned on.

4. Place the collars outdoors for a while
After turning on your collars, we recommend placing them outdoors to fully charge and to ensure they find the correct position in the app. This step isn't crucial, but if you have the time, we recommend doing it.

5. Add the collars to the app
The QR code on the collar or the collar's packaging must be scanned from the app. Learn more about how to add the collars in the app here.
6. Attach the collars on the animals
The most important thing to remember is that the collar should be mounted loosely (looser than you might think), with the QR code facing forward toward the animal’s head.
Sometimes, the collar might slip upside down or shift around the neck. Don’t worry, it’s perfectly normal and will adjust itself. If this happens, we recommend not tightening it any further.

7. Draw a training fence in the app

8. Train your animals
The goal of the training is for the animals to learn to turn around and go back when they hear the sound signal. This requires the animals to interact with the virtual fence boundaries over a week.
