MikaRipple: Pet Breathing Rate

MikaRipple records your pet's resting and sleeping respiratory rate. Breathing rate is a key vital sign you can check at home. Point your camera at your sleeping pet — MikaRipple reads the movement of the chest and belly and counts breaths automatically. ■ Features • Automatic camera measurement Aim at the chest and belly of your sleeping pet. The image is analyzed on your device, and the footage is never saved — unless a Pet Secretary subscriber measures with "Also keep the video" on. Zoom and light supported. • Manual counting, and your own correction Tap along with each breath on screen — a fallback when camera measurement is hard. If the automatic result differs from what you saw, correct it on the spot, or record your own count if a measurement fails. • Any number of pets Per-pet profiles (photo, birthday, color) and alert thresholds. No limit on how many. • History and trends Browse and edit past records; days above your threshold stand out. 60-second measurements are marked apart from 30-second extrapolations. • Share the same records with any number of people Show a QR code and the same records appear on their iPhone. Whoever records it, everyone stays up to date. No account needed — it travels through your own iCloud, and you can stop any time. Useful for multi-pet homes, and for clinics, boarding and sitters where several people share the care. • Vet-ready summary Generate a print-friendly A4 PDF of recent records for the clinic. ■ Pet Secretary (monthly subscription) Day-to-day care records you can share with your vet. • Care diary (appetite, energy, vomiting and more, plus notes, photos and videos) • To-dos (medication, vet visits and other reminders) • Keep a video of each measurement • AI Chat Three plans, differing only in how many AI Chat questions Family Sharing members get per month: Basic 50, Standard 150, Premium 300. The subscriber gets 300 on any plan. If you cancel, everything you recorded stays readable and exportable. ■ AI Chat (Pet Secretary) Ask about your pet in plain language; answers draw on that pet's records (the last 90 days of measurements, diary and reminders). The AI is not a veterinarian: it is instructed not to diagnose or prescribe, and to point you to your vet (answers are not guaranteed). Before first use, the app explains what will be sent; only those who agree can use it. Only your question and a summary of that pet's records are sent — never photos, videos or emergency contacts. ■ Subscription • Pet Secretary is an auto-renewing monthly subscription; see the App Store listing for pricing. • Basic includes a 1-month free trial for first-time subscribers; unless canceled, it becomes paid when the trial ends. Standard and Premium have no trial. • Your AI Chat allowance resets at each renewal; unused questions do not carry over. • Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase, and renews automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the period ends. • Cancel anytime in Settings > Apple Account > Subscriptions. • Every plan supports Family Sharing. ■ Privacy first No account, no ads, no tracking or analytics (only purchase records, via RevenueCat). Your records stay on your device. They reach the developer's server only when you ask in AI Chat (after you agree; the server keeps nothing). Purchase records use a random identifier the app generates — no name or e-mail. Anything else leaves your device only where you turned it on: Record Sharing, Backup to your iCloud Drive, and "Also save to Photos" (which iCloud Photos then uploads if enabled) — always inside your own iCloud, unreadable to the developer. ■ Important This app is not a medical device and is not intended to diagnose, treat, or prevent any disease. Always consult your veterinarian about breathing-rate guidelines and your pet's health.
