I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS APP (ONLY ONE THING TO CRITIQUE)

I have been following this company closely for YEARS now and I’ve finally got a reason to change my dog’s tag and try this out and so far I love it! I think the app UI is easy to use and the pet profiles contain loads of great information.

The only thing I would love to see is a pet gallery on the profile pictures because sometimes my our pets don’t look the same because of haircuts (and probably other reasons too that I’m blanking on.)

The app “telegram” has the best example of what I’m thinking of where you can click a profile picture and see all the past uploaded ones that profile has had. Maybe you can have a way to have that type of mechanic but instead of it all old profile pictures it can be 4 different pictures of your pet. Not sure how it could work but it could be really cool to see.

So happy I got to use this app finally, keep up the hard work!

FAQ

What does the ByteTag app do?

The ByteTag app is part of an advanced pet identification system. It allows you to update your pet's contact information and receive real-time notifications, including GPS coordinates, when your pet's ByteTag is scanned by someone. This helps in quickly locating your lost pet.

What are the key features of ByteTag?

Key features include the ability to add unlimited phone numbers and addresses, update contact information anytime, receive real-time notifications when the tag is scanned, and get the scanner's GPS location. You can also receive push, SMS, and email notifications for added peace of mind.

How does the GPS tracking work?

When someone scans your pet's ByteTag, they can optionally send you their current GPS location. This location can then be easily transferred to mapping applications to provide directions to your pet's whereabouts, facilitating a swift reunion.

Does the person who finds my pet need the ByteTag app?

No, the person who finds your pet does not need to have the ByteTag app installed to scan your pet's ByteTag. This makes the scanning process accessible to anyone who finds your pet, increasing the likelihood of receiving a notification.

How can I get started with ByteTag?

To unlock the full functionality of the ByteTag app, you will need to purchase a ByteTag device from their online store at www.bytetag.com. Once you have the physical tag, you can use the app to manage your pet's identification and tracking information.
