Your dog or cat is missing and you need posters up fast? Findly makes a clear LOST pet flyer with your pet's photo, the details neighbours need and tear-off phone number tabs — ready to print or share in minutes. Add a photo, your pet's name and where it was last seen, enter your contact details, and tap Make Flyer. You get a print-ready PDF poster and an image to post in group chats and neighbourhood groups. • BIG, READABLE POSTER — a bold LOST banner, your pet's name in large capitals, type and breed, and a large photo, laid out on one page. • THE DETAILS THAT HELP — colour and markings, when and where your pet was last seen, and any other notes, plus an optional reward line. • 8 TEAR-OFF TABS — the bottom of the poster has 8 tabs with your phone number (or name) and your pet's name, separated by dashed cut lines, so people can take your number with them. • PDF AND IMAGE — a PDF for printing plus a sharp PNG of the same poster to send in Messages or post online. • PRINT, SHARE OR SAVE — print with AirPrint, share the PDF or image, or save the PDF to Files. Honest scope: Findly makes one poster design, on US Letter or A4 paper (it starts on the size your region uses). Pet types are dog, cat, bird, rabbit or other. Very long text is shortened to keep everything on one page, so keep details brief. The photo comes from your Photos library. Your flyer is made on your iPhone. Nothing is uploaded and no account is needed. Try it free — 3 flyers. A one-time $4.99 purchase unlocks unlimited flyers. No subscription, no ads. Questions: overlapmarr@gmail.com
