What Is With ALL THE Interruptions?!!
This App has twenty different interruption’s in ONE DAY?! Alerts that tell you something is terribly wrong with a big RED SCREEN-CAUTION 🚫and then say it’s “Shutting Down” ❓❗️AND Video Is too SLOW⚠️ and RESTARTING VIDEO ⁉️ BUT THEN you push a button or two and EVERYTHING is FINE ⁉️⁉️Another SIGN says OVER and OVER ❌That there’s a problem with the PET STATION sign so you go check (Lunch Break, Night Time Etc...and AFTER ALL THAT, It starts working just fine?! AND-You have to BUY THIS APP for EVERY SINGLE DEVICE‼️It’s more expensive than the usual apps and I bought two but my husband and I would like them on our other devices‼️We PAID ENOUGH for THEM‼️I don’t like writing these reviews, but this one is driving us crazy, and now we have to find one THAT WORKS‼️Yeah, Not Happy esp. when my animals are scared or if they get hurt‼️Show lessLa Vita Bella

Hi, we're sorry that you are experiencing this issue with our app. Are both devices connected to strong and stable internet connection? Could you please contact us at helpme@tappytaps.com, we will help you to solve this issue.Great but volume control very inconvenient
I love the app to get notifications when my dog is being noisy and see what she’s doing, but I don’t appreciate that it has started to seemingly disregard my iPhone’s volume setting. I shouldn’t have to worry that I’ll have a noise pop up if my phone is on silent and my volume all the way on mute. This seems to be a result of recent updates as it was not this way originally. Now there appears to be a mute feature but why can’t it use my phone’s volume.Show lessemb dog mom
Would give 5 stars if...
This app is absolutely incredible for the price! If you already have a second device, like an iPad that stays at home during the day, then this is way better than buying those other expensive products! I can see my dog all day, and even talk to him to tell him to stop chewing his bed if I need to! It also alerts me if he is being noisy (can be turned off). I only have one issue with this app...if you want to keep the camera running and monitor your dog all day it lowers the sound on all your other apps drastically. The only way to raise the volume is to stop monitoring your dog. So unfortunately I have to start and stop the monitor all day while I am using my phone and hopefully remember to put it on again when I’m done. That being said for $5 this is a great way to check on your pets throughout the day! It would be perfect if it did not effect the volume of all other apps while running.Show lessCardellamj

Hi, thank you for your feedback! We're happy to hear that our app can help. :) Unfortunately, lowering the volume of other apps using sound (such as phone calls, music, and video players) while using our app is an iOS feature. It is not possible to use two apps that would be using the sound at the same time and it affects all apps, not just our apps. When using another app using sound together with Dog Monitor, iOS would either lower the volume of the app to very low or terminate the app altogether. We apologize for this inconvenience.Wonderful and easy to use!!
I have a pup with separation anxiety issues and, according to upstairs neighbors, he used to bark like crazy when I left him. I got the app to use while training (I’d leave and come back over and over starting with just leaving for a minute and working my way up) I used the app to watch and make sure I came back before he got too stressed. He’s doing great! Now I use it for peace of mind so I know that he is resting quietly while I’m out. And if he wasnt I would know and could help him! Using iPhone 6 as dog station and iPhone SE as person station.Show lessformer barky-pants

Thank you so much for your feedback! We're so glad that Dog Monitor can help you with this and it's amazing that you are training with your dog and helping it to overcome separation anxiety! :)BEST DOG APP EVER
I’ve used other dog apps but this is far the best one !!! I can see clearly and even has an HD option, my dog can clearly hear me too and knows where to find me when I call him on the dog app! Absolutely love it ! I would recommend adding other things to the app like it being able to keep the recording and than automatically deletes on itself after two days so I can go back and watch what my dog did but overall it is a good app!Show lessJOSENARIE
Great for the price
This app gives me so much peace of mind. Our Havanese puppy isn’t loud or rambunctious, so I don’t normally use continuous monitoring, just check in through the day. It doesn’t drain my battery, and I’m able to see that she’s just as boring during the day as I want her to be. I have also been able to use continuous monitoring when she was sick, and I could tell if and when I needed to send someone over to check on her. The video quality isn’t the greatest, especially when she’s moving around - sometimes there’s two of her on the screen, which looks a little paranormal. But for the price of this app, which is a tiny fraction of what a high quality pet cam would cost, I am delighted.Show lesskennieruth

Hi, thank you very much for your feedback, we're happy that Dog Monitor can help! :) If you are experiencing the issue with the video, you can try to adjust the quality of the video on the Person Station's Menu - Settings - Video - Quality of the video. The quality of the internet connection also affects the video, please make sure that both devices are connected to the strong and stable internet connection. In case of any questions, please don't hesitate to contact us at helpme@tappytaps.com, we will be happy to help.Great App for checking in...
If you are a working dog mommy or dad, this is perfect... Its easy to setup. I use my iPad & Mac Pro as dog stations & my iPhone as a person station. Be sure to have all devices plugged in, this app drains the battery fast..if you plan on connecting your Mac as a station, you'll have to pay again. However you only pay once for iOS systems..
My yorkie is a constant paw licker & this is great for monitoring & telling him to stop... funny how he looks around wondering where my voice came from... You can also record your voice & give voice commands. I use the recorder to sing songs...lol He loves it... really wish the camera was two way, so he could see me as well. But for the price, I can't really complain!!Show lessmarandalee

Hi, thank you for your feedback, we are happy that you like the app! :) We also consider the two-way video to implement in future. Thank you very much for using Dog Monitor.Great app!
I like this app so much that this is the first time I am writing a review! Easy to use and set up. Wife is away and can can check in with pups from 1000 miles away, while I can make sure they are not getting into trouble from work. I set up one angle with my Mac and another with an old iPhone. Really easy! Only “complaint” (not really) is that I had to purchase 2 versions, one for the MacOS and one for iOS. But, still, less than $10?!?! And, so far, it has been very reliable. Thanks!Show lesstedcomp
I want to love it.
The concept is good the app is ok. I find all of the features useful and helpful in dealing with my dog’s separation anxiety, but all of the features don’t work all of the time. I’m only able to connect to the video 50-70% of the time. How does one of the main features of your app only work half of the time?? It’s pretty frustrating when I’m trying to see if talking to my dog through the app is helpful or not. Also, I went through about a week when the recordings in the activity log were blank. Also annoying. I’ve tried to contact customer support, but have yet to hear back from anyone.Show lessNicBoo12
Puts my mind at ease!
I just got a new puppy and although my partner and I take turns who goes home to take care of him every couple of hours, I wondered what he was up to during those times he is alone. The quality is great and for only 4.99 I’m able to spy on my puppy! Turns out he just sleeps most of the time 😂 I am definitely going to recommend this app to other dog parents!!!!Show lessEdwardluvr222
