## What is Petcast?

Every morning Petcast paints a new picture of your pets doing something that fits the weather where you live: puddle-jumping in the rain, sledding in the snow, napping in a sunbeam on a hot afternoon. It's waiting on your Home Screen when you wake up.

HOW IT WORKS
• Add your pets once: dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, horses and more. Pick a few photos of each, and Petcast paints a reference portrait to work from.
• Choose a time. Each day's picture is painted for your town's forecast and is usually ready by then.
• See what they're up to. The scene follows the weather and the season, with the date and temperature painted in.

WHEREVER YOU LOOK
• Home Screen widgets in small, medium and large.
• An Apple Watch app and complications.
• A new Lock Screen wallpaper each morning, with a Shortcuts automation you set up once.
• A notification when the picture is ready.
• Digital and e-ink picture frames: any frame that can show an image from a web address.

32 ART STYLES
Watercolor, stained glass, embroidery, woodblock print, claymation, needle-felted wool and more, with a different one each day. Turn off any you don't like, or describe one of your own.

PICK TOMORROW'S ADVENTURE
The Tomorrow card shows tomorrow's forecast and three ideas for what your pets could get up to. Pick one, or let Petcast surprise you.

ONE PICTURE FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY
• Invite family with a link or code. Everyone sees the same pets and the same picture each morning, on their own phone.
• Birthdays, gotcha days and holidays get special pictures, and you can add dates of your own.
• Pets who've passed can be marked as remembered and still appear in the pictures.
• Save new pictures to Photos automatically if you like, and share any of them.
• Not happy with a picture? Give it a thumbs-down and Petcast repaints it, once a week.

HALF OUR PROFIT GOES TO ANIMAL SHELTERS
Half of what Petcast earns each month, after store fees and running costs, goes to animal shelters. Each subscribing family can nominate a shelter near them. Each month, once the pot is at least $50, all of it goes to one of the shelters our subscribers nominate; smaller pots carry over. At current costs that's roughly $1.25 to $2 per subscription a month, and a month without profit adds nothing. Reports are published at petcast.app/giving.

YOUR PHOTOS STAY YOURS
Only the photos you pick are uploaded, with location data removed. They're sent to our AI providers to paint your pictures, with your permission, and never sold. No ads. Delete your account and its data any time in Settings.

SUBSCRIPTION
Start with a 7-day free trial, then $6.99 a month or $59.99 a year ($4.99 a month, billed yearly). One subscription covers everyone in your family. Payment is charged to your Apple Account when you confirm the purchase, and at the end of the trial if you started one. The subscription renews automatically unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, and renewal is charged within the 24 hours before it ends. Manage or cancel it in your Apple Account settings.

Pictures are made with AI image models. Every picture has a report button.

### 5/5 — Adorable!

*2026-11-08*

Love seeing a new silly but entertaining photo of my pets every day! The portrait styles are super fun and unique. I also added my pets who have since passed away which I think is a fun way to remember them.

**Developer response:** Thanks for your review! I also enjoy seeing my pets who have passed. They live on in my memory so seeing them again always makes me smile.

### 5/5 — Amazing pet app

*2026-11-08*

Cast you pet as cartoon characters in multiple settings that change daily. Different types of art styles that will have you smiling daily. I can’t wait till the morning to see the new image.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the kind words!

## Version history (last 3 releases)

New in this version:
• Picture frames can stand upright: pick Wide or Upright, and flip the picture if your frame hangs the other way.
• Adding your pets' photos is sturdier, and the setup screen says exactly what's still missing.
• While your first picture is painting, Petcast offers to tell you the moment it's ready.
• Petcast holds on to your sign-in through brief hiccups on our side.
• Smaller fixes to sharing, art styles and the wallpaper guide.
Thanks for the notes you've sent to support@petcast.app. Keep them coming.

- Today's picture switches over right at your delivery time.
- Picture frames get the day's picture early.
- If a photo won't open during setup, Petcast tries it again, and "Continue anyway" now finishes setup properly.
