This update brings a new voice recorder for chats, more dependable GPS tracker pairing, and a long list of fixes that keep you signed in and on the right screen. Chat with our vets • Record voice notes with a live waveform, and pause to pick up where you left off. • A steadier video recorder: pause and resume, and a clip that reaches the time limit is kept, not lost. • When a file can't be attached, the app tells you why, and still attaches everything else you picked. • Unread dots clear once you've read a conversation, including ended consults. GPS tracker • Pairing no longer freezes: you get a clear message with Try again, and a new Cancel while it connects. • A firmware update that can't start now says so, and during setup you can skip it or be reminded later. • Radar Mode's light and sound show what your tracker is really doing. • A cleaner look across tracker settings, with your pet's name under each title. Your account and pets • You stay signed in, even after the app has worked in the background overnight. • Frame your profile photo yourself before it's saved. • Birthday boxes catch impossible dates as you type. • Smoother sign-up and setup, with clearer messages and no more being sent back a step. Family Sharing • On a pet shared with you, you only see the buttons you can use, and restricted access explains itself once instead of popping up again and again. Also in this release • Tapping a notification opens the right screen, even when the app was closed. • Screens refresh by themselves when your connection comes back. • A plan change finishes on its own once you're back online. • Many smaller fixes on iPhone and Android.
