PfotenFreunde brings together dog and cat profiles, your health notes, vaccinations, medication, worming, tick protection and weight history.

Choose the next vaccination due date yourself. Plans and history are included in backups and care reports. Daily reminders cover seven days ahead and refresh when the app opens. The operating system may delay delivery; exact times are not guaranteed. Records stay on your device, without an app account. Local reminders use dates you enter and require notification permission.
