The petTracer Update app keeps the software of your GPS collar and home station up to date. The app guides you through the update step by step: it shows which devices are nearby, which software version is installed and whether a newer one is available. You start the update with a single tap – the app takes care of the rest. HOW IT WORKS • Place the collar on the home station • Open the app and select your device • Start the update and follow the progress • Done – the app confirms the new version WHAT THE APP DOES FOR YOU • Automatically recognises your petTracer devices and shows only those • Downloads the matching software on its own – no file selection needed • Verifies every file before transferring it • Explains in plain language what to do if something goes wrong FOR COLLAR AND HOME STATION The app tells your devices apart automatically and uses the correct software for each one. Mixing them up is not possible. TWO LANGUAGES German and English, switchable at any time inside the app. NOTES The app needs Bluetooth to connect to your devices and an internet connection to download the current software. It collects no personal data and does not require access to your location. This app is solely for software updates. Tracking your pet continues to work via the familiar petTracer app.
