## What is DogWalkPlanner?

DogWalkPlanner finds loop walks for your dog – from your front door or around the park or lake you pick. Plan and go on one screen, right away.

PLAN
• Length 1–6 km or walking time 0:15–2:00 h, plus a slider from "streets are fine" to "lots of green"
• A paths slider from narrow trails to main roads – by default forest tracks, footpaths and quiet side streets
• After dark, lit paths only
• Loops with length, walking time, share of green and shelters – flip through them on the map, and "Andere" (others) keeps finding new ones
• At a lake or park the loop goes all the way around
• Move waypoints: they snap to the nearest path
• Or just go without a plan – the way back to your start is always on the map, with distance and walking time

WEATHER
• Rain radar from the German Weather Service (DWD) on the map, with one switch
• Rain along your loop: "dry until the end" or "rain from 5:40 pm"
• Shelters along the way, parking at the start

ON THE WAY
• The whole loop at a glance, with kilometre and time marks and direction arrows
• Before every turn your iPhone buzzes three times – "right in 80 m" shows in the app, on the lock screen, in the Dynamic Island and on the Apple Watch
• Took a different turn? The app replans and shows the new total; add a detour with one tap
• Nice spots: save places you both like – new loops pass by them
• Pause, also from the lock screen and the Apple Watch
• Bins nearby
• Battery-friendly tracking; a forgotten walk ends by itself

AFTERWARDS
• Rate the walk with four dog faces, name it, mark it as a favourite
• Share it as a picture – via WhatsApp, Messages or Mail
• Heatmap of all walks as lines, kilometres per week, pace
• Walk alarm on the days you choose

Your walks stay on your devices and in your private iCloud. No account, no ads, no analytics.

The app is in German. Rain radar and forecast cover Germany.

## Version history (last 2 releases)

### 0.13 — 2026-11-09

• Walking without a plan: the map now always shows the way back to where you started, with distance, walking time and arrival time – on your watch and lock screen too. Where possible it takes different paths than the way out, so you walk a loop.
• Turn alerts: just before each junction your iPhone buzzes three times, easy to feel in your pocket. Left or right shows in the app, on the lock screen, in the Dynamic Island and on your watch. You can turn the buzz off in “Einstellungen” (Settings).
• New “Wege” (paths) slider: choose which paths your loop may use, from narrow trails to main roads. By default it sticks to forest tracks, footpaths and quiet residential streets.
• Lit paths after dark: if your walk runs into the evening, planning avoids unlit paths and marks them on the map.
• Replanning on the go: leave the loop and you automatically get the way back onto it and the new total length. Tap “Punkt” and then the map to add a detour.
• “Schöner Ort” (nice spot): save places you like while walking. New loops pass by them.
• Better loops: small paths and side streets before main roads, more green if you want it, nearby woods included. “Andere” (others) keeps finding new loops.
• Bins along your loop, so you know where the bag can go.
• The location dot on the map shows which way your iPhone is facing.
• Fixed: after travelling, the app kept planning at the old place.
• Fixed: a destination such as a lake now starts at the nearest car park instead of in the middle of the water.
