Farm Tablet is a heads-up command centre for Farming Simulator 25. Everything you normally hunt through menus to find is surfaced in a clean, full-screen tablet — instant to open, instant to close, and never in the way.
The core philosophy: Information should serve you, not slow you down. Open the tablet, check what you need, get back in the cab. No menus stacked four deep. No pause screens. No alt-tabbing.
In vanilla FS25:
Checking your balance means pausing the game. Scouting field status means digging through menus. Tracking animal food levels means walking to each pen. Monitoring vehicle wear means memorising which one you last checked.
With Farm Tablet:
- Balance, income, and P&L at a glance — no pausing, no menus
- Every owned field's growth stage and readiness in one scrollable list
- Animal pen status — food, water, straw — with colour-coded thresholds
- Vehicles within range with live wear bars and one-click repairs
- Full 5-day weather forecast whenever you need it
- Mod integration apps that appear automatically when companion mods are loaded
Every app is one tap away on the home screen. The tablet remembers where you left it, how big you like it, and which app to open first. It adapts to your workflow rather than demanding you adapt to it.
Farm Tablet has 20 built-in apps, plus 12 more that appear automatically when a companion mod is loaded. Here are the headliners:
|
📊 Dashboard Balance, income, expenses, P&L, season, time, and live weather — all on one screen |
🌤 Weather Full condition card, temperature, wind, humidity, and 5-day forecast |
🌾 Field Status Every owned field — crop, growth phase, hectares, colour-coded READY / GROWING / EMPTY |
|
🐄 Animal Husbandry All pens — count vs capacity, food %, water %, cleanliness — green / yellow / red |
🔧 Workshop Nearby vehicles with fuel, wear, hours, and one-click REPAIR (requires workshop) |
⛏ Digging Live coordinates, speed, attached implements, terrain height — updates every 500 ms |
|
🪣 Bucket Tracker Auto-detects loaders, counts dump cycles, 20-entry load history with material and weight |
⚙️ Settings Position, scale, sounds, startup app, keybind, notifications, debug mode — all in one panel |
🛒 App Store All installed apps grouped by category, version, developer, and one-click OPEN |
| You want to know... | In vanilla FS25 | With Farm Tablet |
|---|---|---|
| Current balance | Pause → Finance menu | Tap Dashboard |
| Which fields are ready | Map → click each field | Tap Field Status |
| Animal food levels | Walk to each pen | Tap Animals |
| Vehicle wear | In-game menu → vehicles | Tap Workshop |
| Tomorrow's weather | Pause → weather screen | Tap Weather |
No pausing. No stacking menus. No interrupting your workflow.
The tablet's companion apps appear automatically when their mods are loaded. You don't configure anything. If the mod is in the save, the app is on the home screen.
"Loaded NPCFavor halfway through a playthrough. The app just appeared. Didn't even know it had Farm Tablet support."
"Three mods, three extra apps. All showing up without touching a config file."
Every integration reads game data passively — the tablet never modifies your farm state, so there's no risk of conflicts or save corruption.
These apps appear on the home screen the moment their companion mod is active. No toggles, no restarts required.
