## What is Petaily?

Petaily | A Simple, Thoughtful Pet Journal

No ads. No account required. Works without an internet connection. Just you, your pets, and every day you share together.

Petaily has one purpose: to help you preserve your pet’s life story. From the day they first come home and their first vaccination to all the ordinary yet precious moments in between, every memory can be safely kept.

■ Calendar Journal
Choose any day on the calendar and capture the moment with text, photos, and videos. See at a glance which days have journal entries or reminders.

■ All Your Photos in One Place
Switch to a photo grid with a single tap to see every photo and video by date, then open any of them full screen.

■ Health and To-Do Reminders
Vaccinations, vet visits, deworming, medication, and more—set reminders for each pet, repeat them weekly or monthly, and get notified on time. Attach photos of vet notes or prescriptions so everything stays with the reminder.

■ Multiple Pets, Tags, and Quick Search
Create a dedicated profile and personal journal for every pet. Organize with tags, or search by keyword to quickly revisit a special day.

■ Your Data Belongs to You
Journal entries, photos, and videos are stored on your device. When you turn on iCloud sync, they go only to your own iCloud. There are no servers of ours, no third-party tracking, and the developer can never see your data. Export a backup anytime.

■ Petaily Pro (one-time purchase, yours forever)
• iCloud sync: journal entries, photos, and videos sync automatically across your iPhones, so nothing is lost when you switch phones
• Custom backgrounds: set a photo of your pet as the app’s background

No unnecessary features—only what truly matters.
Petaily, helping you remember a lifetime together.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 2.1.0 — 2026-09-27

NEW
• Custom backgrounds (Pro, beta): put a photo of your pet behind the app, and adjust the mist and softening with a live preview. Save several and switch between them anytime
• Photos view: tap Photos at the top of Diary to see every photo and video by date, then tap one to view it full screen
• Photos and videos on reminders: vet notes and prescriptions stay with the reminder, separate from your diary
• Reminders open to a preview first. Swipe to move between them
• Photos taken in Petaily are also saved to a Petaily album in Photos (can be turned off in Settings)
• Clearer sync status: see how much space your data uses and how long a sync has been running
• Tap a thumbnail while editing a diary entry to view it full screen
• Redeem offer codes right in the app
• Rate Petaily on the App Store from Settings

IMPROVEMENTS
• Faster photo grids and thumbnails
• Backup and restore use much less memory
• Moving data after an update now happens in the background, so the app opens right away
• Photos or videos over 1 GB are flagged before import
• The keyboard hides when you drag a form

FIXES
• Repeating reminders couldn't be switched off
• Repeating reminders sent several notifications at once
• Some notifications were dropped when there were too many
• The camera sometimes closed right after opening

### 2.0.0 — 2026-09-23

【iCloud Sync — Petaily Pro】
Upgrade to Pro to turn on iCloud sync. Diaries, photos and videos stay in step across every device signed in to your Apple Account, which doubles as a backup that is always up to date. Change phones or reinstall, and your pet's memories are still there. Everything lives in your own iCloud — we have no server and cannot see your content. One-time purchase, yours forever.

【Repeating reminders】
Medication, baths, vaccinations — set a reminder to repeat daily, weekly, monthly, yearly or on your own interval, and the next one is created for you. Each reminder can carry its own notification, so you're told even when the app is closed.

【Photos that stay on your pet】
Thumbnails no longer crop from the middle whatever is in the picture. The app finds the cat or dog and crops around it, so heads stop getting cut off.

【Browsing that feels like an album】
Swipe sideways in an entry to reach the previous or next one, without going back to the list. Photos are read only as they're needed, so entries with many of them open far faster.

【Also】
• Long-press an entry's text to copy it
• Photo browsing shows "3 / 65" instead of dots
• Pets have notes, a days-together count and a birthday countdown
• Video uses the app's own player, keeping its place between the small and full-screen views
• Settings has a Contact page for reporting problems and sending ideas

### 1.1.1 — 2026-09-18

Added a Simplified Chinese interface. Switch it under Settings → Language.

### 1.1.0 — 2026-09-16

This update makes logging easier and your data safer:
• Custom tags: Tag entries and reminders with your own labels—name them, pick a color, rename or delete them anytime, and tap a tag to filter your search.
• Backup & Restore: Pack every pet, entry, photo, video, reminder, and tag into a single .zip file that you can save to Files or iCloud Drive, or send with AirDrop. Restore by merging it with your current data or replacing it entirely.
• Camera capture: Take photos and videos directly from a diary entry instead of only selecting them from your library.
• Share entries: Send a diary entry’s text, photos, and videos to Threads, Messages, and other apps through the system share sheet.
• Jump to any month: Tap the month title in the calendar to select a year and month, and use the Today button to return whenever you’ve navigated away.
• Easier deleting: Entries and reminders now have a More menu that asks for confirmation before deleting.

### 1.0.1 — 2026-09-15

Updated the App Store description and made minor improvements.
