Pawprints is the private journal and daily care log for the dog you love — one beautiful place for every memory worth keeping and every detail that keeps them healthy. No account. No subscription. No servers. Your dog's whole life stays on your iPhone or iPad, encrypted and yours alone. EVERY DAY, ONE TAP Today's care sits right at the top — tap once and it's logged. No form, no friction. Each tile remembers your usual amount and shows when you last did it, so you can tell at a glance whether she's already been fed. Choose which four kinds of care greet you, or set exactly what a tap should record. Missed a day? Add it back as quick tallies — two feeds, three pees, a walk — and confirm the times before anything is saved. You can also log without opening the app at all: "Log a walk in Pawprints" works with Siri and Shortcuts. Want more detail? Track water, weight, medicine, sleep, grooming, training, symptoms, vet visits, and your own custom activities — each with optional notes and duration. A JOURNAL WORTH KEEPING Three kinds of entries capture everything you'll want to look back on: • Photo — up to three photos with a caption and location • Note — rich text for the longer stories • Milestone — 19 ready-made tags across firsts, training, life, and health (First Walk, Adoption Day, Learned Recall, Vaccination…) plus your own Browse by year, by month, or all at once. Filter by type. Tap any photo for full-screen, pinch-to-zoom viewing, including landscape while the viewer is open. HEALTH, ALWAYS AT HAND Keep breed, birthday, gender, allergies, medications, conditions, microchip ID, and vet details in one tidy profile. Their age updates itself. Your vet's location opens straight in Apple Maps. Heading to the vet? Export a clean, filtered PDF care report — feeds, weights, symptoms, and more across any date range — ready to hand over or print. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your dog's memories, health, and photos never touch a third-party server — ever. No advertiser, no analytics, not even the developer can see your data. Back everything up to your own iCloud Drive, sealed with a password only you know. Pawprints cannot recover it, and neither can anyone else. That is what private really means. MADE FOR IPHONE AND IPAD Built entirely with Apple frameworks — no third-party code — so it feels exactly like it belongs on your iPhone or iPad. • Light, dark, or system theme • 6 accent colours plus a custom picker • Location tagging that opens in Apple Maps • Annual birthday reminders • Weight history at a glance FREE, WITH HEART Pawprints is completely free — every feature, for everyone. No paywall, nothing locked away. If it earns a place in your day, a one-time tip means the world to a solo developer. A journal for the dog you love. ## Pricing and in-app purchases Base price: Free. **One-time purchases** | Purchase | Price | Type | | --- | --- | --- | | Buy Me a Coffee | $2.99 | one-time | | Treat Me to Lunch | $9.99 | one-time | | Support Pawprints | $19.99 | one-time | ## Version history (last 5 releases) ### 1.5 — 2026-08-15 Pawprints 1.5 is the biggest update yet and the daily log is the heart of it.
