Various bug fixes

User reviews

Can’t add more than one dog

Because the app’s home screen is inaccessible due to 1) freezing and 2) button location and size. Unusable app. Ridiculous, why would I even update firmware

This app doesn’t work

The app doesn’t work. Crashes upon login or registration every time. Yet the company is still selling these blue franc collars that are basically useless when the app doesn’t work. Why require a login to make your collar work if you’re not going to maintain the app?

User interface is pathetic

Given the high price of the devices that require this app for configuration & control, you would think that they would put a little thought into the design and functionality of the app. I can’t begin to tell you the number of times that I have attempted to make a simple adjustment to the settings for one of my dogs, only to find that a duplicate configuration file has been created. Trying to determine which is the revised version (without creating, yet another duplicate) so that I can delete the old one, can be a serious pain.

More annoying is the fact that years after the introduction of the iPhone notch, with the system shifting significant items to the upper left and right corners of the screen, this app has not been revised to move the squared-hamburger menu selection button down, below this space. I regularly use the app to check the battery level of the bluefang collars on my three dogs. It is extremely difficult to open the menu and switch between dogs, without accidentally selecting the back/previous-app system option that occupies about half of the same space as the menu button.

Frankly, I’m amazed that Apple hasn’t pulled this app from the store for violating user interface design standards / requirements.

Need Update BAD

I bought the pet containment system and so far so good there. This app however needs some work. It’s been over a year since it’s last update. The toast menu option and ellipsis selection (3 dots) are too high on the screen. An update should easily fix this. I will revise my review if/when this happens.

Please update

It works to control collar functions but none of the data is sent back to app
