Great but could use a few upgrades

I just downloaded this app to track my senior cats food intake. I love how customizable the app is and the information is tracks but I’d love a few changes. My cat is fed on a consistent schedule, adding a feature for that would be AMAZING instead of adding each individual meal every time.

To add to this, for animals that have multiple parts to a meal, it’d be nice to be able to add all the items at once instead of one at a time.

I’d also love if you could scan the barcode on the food. This would be easier to make sure that the correct data is being entered correctly and saves on typing out everything your pet eats. Other than those few things, this app is amazing and pretty easy to use!

Hi there, thank you for leaving us a review and for giving us 4 stars! We've just released 6.5.0 to the appstore. In this version, we've provided the ability for pet owners to set up recurring feeding schedules and log them when the meal has been fed. We would love for you to try it out and let us know if it meets your pet's need! If you have any other feedback or concern, you can drop us an email at appfeedback@mcruncher.com.

New training tracker super useful

I’ve used Furiend in the past to track weight issues with our dog but the addition of training tracking to Furiend makes this app even more useful.

One of the things our trainers have always recommended is keeping a log of how training sessions go. This new version makes it super easy and the ability to add additional training exercises even better.

I like how you can track the time spent on each activity. It takes time to get used to it but by turning it on and off you can now see the amount of time spent with a dog results in better results.

With this option, I’m finding I use more of the other features I used to ignore like moments. There are certainly other improvements that could be made (I would love to tag pet “friends”) but definitely a great app for dog owners.

Hi there, thanks so much for the 4 stars! We are happy to hear that our Training tracker feature is helpful in recording your pet's training. We have noted down your request on tagging pet friends. We will be introducing other new features in the coming versions so do keep an eye put for them. If you have any other feedback or concern, you can drop us an email at appfeedback@mcruncher.com

Not Free for even just one pet

Tried to open app and it is stuck on must have an icloud subscription to open. Why are the files not stored on my phone?

Response from developer

Hi there, to use our app you need to ensure your iCloud Drive is turned on. We do this to ensure your data is always backed up and to prevent any data loss. To turn your iCloud Drive on, you need to navigate to your iPhone Settings > Apple ID > iCloud > iCloud Drive. Once you do this, you should be able to access our app. You can track the health of one of your pet as a free user (with some limitations e.g Data Sharing, Temperature tracking & Medicine History). If you need to manage more than one pet with the additional features mentioned above, you can upgrade to premium. If you have any other feedback or concern, you can drop us an email at appfeedback@mcruncher.com.

Only good if you have normal pets

Can you guys add grams to the weight options? I have small parrots that I need to track and they’re weighed by grams. That’s my only gripe with the app.

Response from developer

Hi there, we do support tracking your pet's weight in grams. To do this, please navigate into the pet > Health > Weight > Unit. If you're using the metric system, the available units are g and kg. If you have any other feedback or concern, you can drop us an email at appfeedback@mcruncher.com

Waste of time

This app need improvement! Needs to be more options to adjust servings.

Response from developer

Hi there, thank you for your feedback. We would love to hear more on how we can improve this feature. Please feel free to drop us an email at appfeedback@mcruncher.com and let us know how we can improve!

Does what I need it to do

It’s hard to knock this app given that’s it’s one of the few that I’ve found for the purposes of tracking my cat’s good (the few other apps that exist for this namely focus on dogs’ needs). It’s pretty bare bones and can be a bit glitchy at times, but I genuinely use it every day and hate to go without it. Well done!

Not what I needed, let me know when you update

Needed an app to share with co-pet parent that can mark down walks, feedings, and medication. Doesn’t seem to currently have those capabilities.

Response from developer

We would love for you to try it out and let us know if this helps you! If you have any other concerns or feedback, please send us an email at appfeedback@mcruncher.com

Doesn’t work

Seemed okay at first. Now I get a constant error message asking me to sign into my iCloud before it opens the app. Except I am signed in. Tried reinstalling. Nothing works but worked okay for a few weeks.

Response from developer

Hi there, thank you for your feedback. You need to ensure that your iCloud Drive is enabled. To do this, tap your Apple ID > iCloud > iCloud Drive. If the problem still persists, please send us an email at appfeedback@mcruncher.com. We will be happy to assist you!

Great Medicine Tracker

Simple but functional, less confusing than other apps and a nice single ‘in app purchase’. I’d love a dark mode switch if possible.

Response from developer

Hi there, thank you for your feedback 🙂 We provided dark mode support and iPad support 6.2.0. Be sure to update our app to the latest version to see these changes.

Ok App

I like the app, but in order to add 4 vaccinations with all four having the same vaccination date, but with 2 different due dates I had to change the actual given dates on two of them to make it work. It would help if this was fixed.

Response from developer

Hi there, thank you very much for your feedback. We have added support for this feature in 4.4.0. You can now assign different due dates for a single vaccination date. f you have any other concerns or feedback please email us at appfeedback@mcruncher.com
