Hello Critter is a personal journal for every animal you meet. Capture a photo when a small animal catches your eye, then save the details that make the moment memorable: its name, the time, the location, and your own notes. Whether you meet an animal on a neighborhood walk, at school, in a park, or while traveling, Hello Critter helps turn a passing encounter into a lasting memory. Explore your memories in the way that feels most natural: - Browse your complete collection of animal encounters. - Use the calendar to revisit the animals you met on any day. - View recorded locations on a map and trace encounters across the city. - Review recent records and see your encounters at a glance from the home screen. - Add or update details whenever you learn more about an animal or want to remember how the moment felt. Hello Critter is designed for people who enjoy noticing the small lives around them. It keeps your photos, places, dates, and reflections together, making it easy to look back on the gentle moments that might otherwise be forgotten.
