### 2/5 — Cat

*2026-05-28, version 1.3.04*

I would like to give this app a higher review but I have a cat that has seizures.   The app is centered around dogs I can’t even select feline or a feline breed.    I would also like to be able to track bowel movements and other behaviors such as sedation level, medication side affects and eating.     The cat idea is solid, I want more.

### 1/5 — Was working - now not

*2026-05-16, version 1.3.04*

The app shows no connection - after update. With a dog that seizes every 3-4 days ATM, it is inconvenient.

### 1/5 — Log in Problems

*2026-05-11, version 1.3.04*

I have used this application to track my dog’s seizures and his medication. I tried to change my password after not being able to remember the correct one. Each time I push the button that says “Forgotten my password” it just spins and does nothing. I’ve looked all over the web site for support but can’t find any contact. All my data is trapped in this App and I can’t retrieve it. Poorly designed App.

### 1/5 — Not reliable

*2026-02-26, version 1.3.04*

I loved this app initially, the concept is great and it has a lot of functionality. Now I can’t access my data as the “reset password” function does not work. I advice you to back up your data if you are using this app

### 1/5 — Stopped uploading

*2025-11-26, version 1.3.04*

Come on RVC, time to sort out your app!!

### 2/5 — Please help!!

*2025-11-03, version 1.3.04*

I was all of a sudden logged out of my account and when I attempt to log back in, it says my details are not recognized. I’ve tried resetting my password but the screen just freezes and it never sends me an email to reset my password. I’ve diligently used this app for the past 3 years (it’s been incredibly helpful and useful) and will be devastated if I cannot retrieve any of my data! Please help me!

### 1/5 — Funktioniert leider schon wieder nicht mehr

*2025-09-24, version 1.3.04*

Man hat ja vorher schon öfter die Anzeige Internet unavailable bekommen, aber seit iOS 26 geht gar nichts mehr. Echt schade für eine medizinische App!

### 2/5 — Schade

*2025-05-05, version 1.3.04*

An sich guter Aufbau. Aber schade, dass die App bei einem Apple Update nicht mehr funktioniert. Hatte ich jetzt schon das dritte Mal, dass ich sie deinstallieren musste, dann einige Zeit warten. Und dann wieder neu herunterladen.

### 3/5 — App down again

*2025-05-04, version 1.3.04*

This is an excellent app to keep
Track of my dog's seizures but the app is down again. I need access to my logs for an upcoming appointment.

### 1/5 — Was wonderful. Lost all my valuable data

*2025-05-01, version 1.3.04*

This has been my record keeper for YEARS! I have lost 4.5 years of data and my seizure tracking because the app will no longer open. It just sits there and thinks about it and does nothing. I have tried to get support, but I cannot even seem to connect for that. Previously this was a wonderful app and it had recently been updated to make it even better. I am hoping this might be resolved in time and my data will be recovered!
