Pawmark turns every walk with your dog into a playful territory game on a shared world map. WHAT IT IS The world is a grid of hexagons. Walk through one and it becomes yours, painted in your color. Close a loop on the map and the whole enclosed area becomes part of your territory. Your claimed land shows up to every Pawmark player nearby — with your emblem and your dog's name planted right on top of it — and theirs shows up to you. The twist: the challenge resets every week. Every Monday at 00:00 UTC, every dog's power goes back to zero. Your power is the kilometers you've walked this week. To claim a rival's territory, you have to walk more than them, then close a loop around their cells. Walked less than them? Their land stays protected — for now. You and your dog. Walk. Mark. Conquer. CORE FEATURES • Real-time GPS tracking — screen off, phone in your pocket, Pawmark keeps marking in the background. • A living conquest map — your land in your color, every rival's in theirs. Your chosen emblem and your dog's name stand over each territory you hold, like a little flag on the map. • Pick your emblem — a curated set of crests and creatures (wolf, fox, lion, bear, crown, shield, crossed swords, castle, banner, laurels and more), each painted in your color. No more generic emoji. • Loop conquest — walking across rival cells is not enough. Surround them with a closed loop to challenge the zone. The walker with more weekly km claims the ground. • Weekly reset — every Monday everyone starts from zero. A new walking challenge begins. • Push notifications — know the instant a rival claims one of your cells. Plan your next walk and take it back. • Track your legend — see your total km conquered, your km² of land, your current streak, and your all-time distance walked. Numbers to brag about. • 17+ achievements — first 5K, 50 km total, 200 km marathoner, dawn walker, night owl, cartographer and more. • Instagram Stories-ready share cards — show off your whole territory or a single walk with one tap. • Walk history with full route replay, distance, time, average speed, and zones captured. • Waypoints — drop pins for water stops, rest spots, or photo-worthy moments on your route. • Three languages — English, Spanish, and Brazilian Portuguese, with a km / mi toggle. • Apple Sign-in backup — link your account to keep your territory if you switch iPhones. ANTI-CHEAT, BY DESIGN Distances are validated on our servers, not trusted from the phone. Impossible speeds (no, you can't drive your way to the top) are dropped automatically. The leaderboard rewards real walking — nothing else. ZERO PAY-TO-WIN Pawmark is free. We do not — and never will — sell anything that affects gameplay. The walker who walks more wins, period. Any future cosmetic items (emblems, themes) will never change who wins a challenge. A FAIR, SAFE COMMUNITY Names are filtered for profanity automatically. You can report or block any player from inside the app. Reports are reviewed within 24 hours. YOUR ROUTES STAY YOURS Your detailed GPS routes never leave your phone. Only your conquered cells, your weekly km, and your dog's name/color/emblem are shared on the map — never your exact path. Made for dog owners who want their daily walks to mean something.
