COMMANDS

### 1/5 — Scam

*2025-11-07, version 5.1.0*

I bought this app, then canceled it and even received an email from someone saying it would be canceled.
Guess what, they kept charging me. And it doesn’t show up under subscriptions so it makes it even weirder and more difficult to get it canceled. This company is a nightmare to deal with.

### 5/5 — Works great

*2025-10-07, version 5.1.0*

No complaints

### 4/5 — Grundsätzlich ok

*2025-09-09*

An sich eine gute App, ideal zum aufbauen des alleine bleibens oder um anstrengenden Nachbar*innen gegenüber nachzuweisen dass der Hund nicht bellt und sich als Mieter*in abzusichern. Ein paar der Funktionen (aufnehmen von Befehlen) macht aus Trainingsperspektive für mich keinen Sinn, dafür gibt es an anderen Stellen manchmal komische Probleme. So kann man beispielsweise keine Musik hören während die App im Hintergrund läuft weil die Soundqualität absolut furchtbar ist. Beim Aufnehmen und Abhören von Sprachnachrichten das gleiche Problem. Grundsätzlich aber eine zuverlässige und solide App, besonders wenn man nicht mehr aktiv im Training ist sondern nur pro forma aufzeichnen will ob der Hund mal Geräusche macht

**Developer response:** Hallo! Vielen Dank, dass Sie Ihre Gedanken mit uns teilen. Wir schätzen Ihr Feedback zu unserer App. Obwohl Sie sie im Allgemeinen als zuverlässig und solide empfinden, verstehen wir, dass es einige Bereiche gibt, die Sie verbessert sehen möchten. Wenn Sie können, kontaktieren Sie uns bitte unter helpme@tappytaps.com, um Ihre Erfahrungen genauer zu beschreiben, und wir werden unser Bestes tun, um Ihnen weiterzuhelfen.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2025-08-30, version 5.1.0*

Love dog Monitor. Basic functionality which does exactly what it says it does. So simple to watch our doggo from both mine and my partners phone. Definitely recommend.

### 5/5 — Really Great

*2025-08-26*

Updated: This app was really good from the beginning and now can’t imagine life without it. Have been using it for 4 months since we got our rescue. Just discovered the feature where you can playback the sounds the dog has been making in the log. They thought of everything! Being able to change the noise sensitivity of the microphone is so helpful since we have noisy neighbors. The video function is intuitive. And occasionally our dog responds to being soothed by us talking to him (though mostly he is unimpressed since he can’t smell or see us.) This is a thoughtful, stable app. Glad to have it and would buy again.

**Developer response:** Hi, thank you for your great review! We’re glad to hear that our app works as expected and is helpful for you. 😊

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2025-08-05, version 5.1.0*

Easy to use

### 5/5 — Great app

*2025-07-05, version 5.1.0*

Simple and easy to use

### 3/5 — Lots of Glitches Recently

*2025-06-30, version 5.1.0*

The app was great for the first month but in the past week, I’ve been having regular connection issues. The dog monitor device keeps disconnecting when it’s monitoring.

### 5/5 — Sense of Peace.

*2025-06-26, version 5.1.0*

This app has helped me have a sense of peace when leaving my anxious dog at home. Has also let me know I have been out too long and go home, or don’t have to go home just yet. As much as it has helped me it has also helped him with his anxiety by being able to talk to him if need be.

### 1/5 — help

*2025-06-23, version 5.1.0*

so i bought the app and payed for it but how am i supposed to put the code in on my other phone if i would have to pay for it again on my other device?! is that just how it is that i have to pay 14$ for it? someone please let me know asap.
