Puddle is a calm, AKC-aware puppy potty tracker. Log a break, see when the next one's coming. Built for the chaos of weeks 8–24, when you're up at 3am asking yourself whether you took them out two hours ago or three. The hero card always shows the next predicted break, in plain English, anchored to your most recent successful one. The math underneath: the AKC's "one hour per month of age" guideline, scaled by breed size, trimmed by 20% if a meal landed in the last 30 minutes and another 10% if water did. Tap the info circle to audit it row by row. Free to use forever with one puppy and the full prediction engine. Pay once for Pro to unlock multi-puppy sync, the accident heatmap, the Home Screen widget, and CSV export. WHAT PUDDLE DOES • Predict the next break — AKC bladder math, breed-size scaled, meal- and water-aware. The hero card always shows your puppy's next break in plain English. • One-tap event logging — pee, poop, accident, walk, meal, water. Tap to log, tap a row to edit. The day's timeline lives right under the countdown. • Predicted-break notifications — optional local nudges at each predicted break, per puppy. Quiet hours (10pm–6am) respected. No nudge in the middle of the night. • Accident trend chart — 14 days of accidents at a glance, with an "Improving / Steady / Up vs. last week" trend chip. • Day-by-day history — every event grouped by day, expandable, editable. • Per-puppy reminders — turn break reminders on or off per puppy from the Edit Puppy sheet. • Light, dark, or auto theme — set it and forget it. PUDDLE PRO — pay once, no subscription Unlock with a one-time purchase: • Up to 4 puppies — track a litter or a multi-dog household. Free includes 1. • Accident heatmap by hour of day — 30 days grouped into a 24-hour strip. Auto-detects the worst window ("6pm–8pm") so you can preempt instead of clean up. • Home Screen widget — small + medium widgets showing the next predicted break for the puppy you pick. Long-press to switch puppies. • CSV export — pick a puppy, pick a date range, export ISO-8601 timestamped CSV. Hand it to your vet or trainer in one tap. • Support a solo developer building indie apps. No subscription. No "lite" forever-trial. No nags. You pay once and the features are yours. WHY IT'S DIFFERENT Most puppy apps are either training-course libraries that bury the potty log under upsells, or static reminder lists that don't adapt as the puppy grows. Puddle is built around the prediction. Every event you log makes the next prediction sharper. The window adjusts as your puppy ages. The heatmap surfaces the trouble window without you having to scroll through history. By the time your puppy is housebroken at six months, you'll have stopped opening the app — and that's the point. You paid once, not every month. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Local-first. Your data lives on your device and syncs privately across your own iPhones via iCloud — included free for every user, Pro or not. No accounts. No servers of ours. No third-party analytics. No ads. No trackers. The widget reads from a private App Group container — not from a network. Photos you attach to a puppy are downscaled and stored locally, never uploaded to anyone's server. A NOTE ON PUPPY PROTOCOLS Puddle is a logging tool. The prediction is based on standard AKC housetraining guidance — it's a starting point, not a diagnosis. Every puppy is different. If you're worried about your puppy's potty patterns, frequent accidents, or any health concern, talk to a vet.
