User reviews

Almost perfect app

Great app! I’ve used it to create a record of my neighbors dog barking throughout the night. The only reason my rating is not 5 stars is I can’t export my recording. It hangs at 90%

Bark

Great but would be even better if it can run in the background and if you can delete some of the records if needed

Awesome

I searched all sorts of paid apps and couldn’t find anything that would do this without cspururing all sorts of other nonsense - and then found this. Absolutely perfect.

Data won’t download, no support.

After using the app to capture the neighbours barking dogs it won’t allow me to download the data. It stops at 90%. Tried contacting the support team as directed within the app with no response, even though it states “can be same day response”. Promised the world and delivered an Atlas.

Helps for monitoring

This is great when a neighbor believes your dog is barking. Unfortunately, it can only be used when u are home or one app at a time.
