## What is puppy.ai?

puppy.ai is a simple tool that allows you identify any breed of dog. All you need to do is open the app, point your phone at the dog or picture of the dog (make sure the dog is in camera view), and wait. Right there, the app begins to "think" and analyze. And in a matter of seconds, the app tells you what that dog's breed is. 

Use it to identify your cute pup, your weird looking pooch, a dog you just adopted, or your overly muscular dog whose breed you're not quite sure of. Have fun! And tell us what you think.

### 1/5 — Uunhepful

*2023-07-05*

Freezes and gives instantaneous feedback which may be different each time I use it on the same dog

### 1/5 — Sad

*2022-02-21, version 1.0.4*

It keeps saying my shepherd is a Siberian husky. I kept using it on him but it kept crashing on me and kept saying Siberian husky. I use iPad.
Version iPados 15.3.1

### 5/5 — Awesome detection

### 1/5 — Tried

*2021-03-15, version 1.0.4*

Downloaded the app and you point it at dog and the app closes automatically

### 1/5 — Crashes over and over.

*2020-12-01, version 1.0.4*

That’s it. Doesn’t work. Just crashes. iPhone 12 Pro.

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2020-11-03, version 1.0.4*

I can’t get the app to stay open long enough to point at my dog to get a read on him. It closes as soon as I get his face in view. Would be nice to be able to attempt a reading.

### 5/5 — Omg yesss

### 1/5 — Wildly inaccurate

*2020-05-01, version 1.0.4*

Got a range from Italian greyhound to Great Dane on our mixed breed puppy, depending on the angle.

### 1/5 — Inaccurate

*2020-04-13, version 1.0.4*

I am pretty sure that my dog is a redbone coonhound, not a Labrador retriever. My dog does not have a brown nose, she has a black nose.
