## What is Bear Repellent?

Heading into bear country? Bear Repellent helps keep bears at a distance by playing loud, looping wolf and dog sounds — the natural predators and warning calls that make bears think twice about coming closer.

Just open the app and play. The sound loops continuously so you can clip your phone to a pack, set it down at camp, or carry it as you move. No setup, no account, no internet required.

• Loud, looping wolf howls and dog barks
• Swipe to switch between wolf and dog — the sound changes instantly
• Works 100% offline — no signal or data needed
• Simple one-tap operation
• Completely free
• Ideal as a constant deterrent while moving or at rest

Who it's for:
• Hikers, backpackers and trail runners
• Campers and overnight backcountry travelers
• Anglers fishing rivers, streams and lakes
• Hunters and foragers gathering mushrooms or wild plants
• Farmers and gardeners working near woods and fields
• Anyone living, working or traveling in areas where bears appear

How to use:
1. Open the app
2. Tap play to start the looping sound
3. Swipe left or right to switch between wolf and dog
4. Turn the volume up for maximum effect

Stay aware, stay loud, stay safe. Bear Repellent is a simple extra layer of noise to help reduce surprise encounters — always follow local wildlife guidance and carry proper bear safety gear in addition to using this app.

### 4/5 — 音量最大でも低いのでアップデートを

*2026-04-14*

簡単で良いのだが最大音量でも音が低い　昼間だと雑音等でかき消されます
もう少し大きな音で鳴るようにアップデートして下さい
あと狼と猟犬だけでなくもう少し種類を増やして欲しい
簡単でやり易いのだから、その辺しっかりやってくれたら売れますよ　地元の方だけじゃなく熊対策は旅行等でも必要なので…
アップデートに期待します

### 5/5 — 操作が簡単
