Calmly notice the little things before they become big things. PetAppLog (PAL) is a gentle daily wellness check-in for people who love their pets and hate the guessing. Spend twenty quiet seconds noting how your companion is doing across a few soft dimensions, such as appetite, energy, mood, digestion, and comfort. PetAppLog (PAL) turns those small observations into a calm picture: a breathing Wellness Aura, a daily Pulse, and an early sense of when something is drifting from their normal. Because a dog and a bird don't need the same checklist, the areas you watch are set from your pet's species: paws, ears and skin for a dog; wings, beak and claws for a bird; fins and scales for a fish. Every one of them gets its own colour-banded bar on Trends. Add a photo of them (kept on your device, never uploaded), record the conditions around them with three quick buttons: Outside, Inside, and, for pets in a cage, tank, pen or coop, their Habitat. Keep vet visits, vaccinations, and shots on a calendar that marks the day and nudges you as the day approaches. Trends and a wellness calendar show the shape of their weeks; an exportable care report turns a hunch into a confident conversation with your vet; and a care circle lets family and sitters stay on the same page. No ads, no clinical clutter, no AI gimmicks. Just a warm, professional companion that trades uncertainty for confident, proactive care. It is a wellness journal, never a diagnosis or a substitute for your veterinarian. PETAPPLOG (PAL) PRO (optional subscription) - Unlimited pets, 30-day trends with full baseline and Gentle Drift, pattern insights, the wellness calendar, the care circle, the exportable wellness report and care milestones - $4.99 monthly or $39.99 yearly, with a 7-day free trial - Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation; auto-renews unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the period ends; manage in Settings Privacy Policy: https://preview.apppublishing.ai/legal/620/privacy Terms of Use (EULA): https://preview.apppublishing.ai/legal/620/terms
