CutePawLog is a gentle training journal for pet parents—dogs, cats, birds, rabbits, and more—who want clear goals, simple logs, and progress they can actually see. Plan skills for each of your companions, log every session on Today, and review your history anytime—without a complicated setup. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Today — See your daily overview, open planned tasks, and use Quick Log to record training with pet, skill, duration, star rating, mood, and notes. Add optional photos or voice notes. • Plans — Create training plans for each pet: skill, goal, suggested duration, stage, and optional review reminders. • Pets — Add profiles for any supported species (dog, cat, bird, rabbit, and more), with breed and photos. View trends, export a training report image, or expand your pet limit with coins. • Log — Browse sessions by day, week, or pet. Edit or delete past logs; deleting a log does not remove training plans. • Account — Sign in with Apple, edit your display name and profile photo, check in for bonus coins, open Help & Legal, and manage sign out. COINS & EXTRAS Welcome coins help you get started. Spend coins to add an extra pet slot, export a full pet training report image, or export a single session card. Purchase coin packs in the Coin Store when you need more. REMINDERS (OPTIONAL) Turn on daily training or plan review reminders from Today (bell) or when editing a plan. Notifications are off by default until you enable them and allow permission. DESIGNED FOR PET PARENTS Soft pink and lavender visuals, light appearance, and focused screens so you spend time training—not fighting the UI. Sign in with Apple to begin. Add a pet on the Pets tab, create a plan on Plans, then log your first session from Today.
