About

Barkeeping

Features
Read full description

Barkeeping helps your household keep track of feeding, bathroom trips, and accidents for your dogs โ€” and everyone in the family sees the same up-to-date picture. Shared with your family Invite family members to a shared view of your dogs' care, the same way you'd share a Reminders list. Everyone logs from their own iPhone, iPad, or Apple Watch, and sees who did what and when. Learns your dog's routine Barkeeping quietly learns each dog's typical schedule from what you log โ€” how long they usually go between trips outside, and how soon they tend to need out after a meal or a skipped opportunity. It starts with sensible estimates and gets more accurate the more you use it. Reminders that come to you Turn on reminders to get a notification, a Home Screen widget, and a Live Activity countdown when a dog is due for a trip outside โ€” so you don't have to open the app to know. See the patterns A history view charts trips outside versus accidents over time, so you can spot patterns and track house-training progress. Ask Siri Log a feeding or a bathroom trip, or ask when a dog is next due out, right from Siri and Shortcuts. Built for the whole family A glanceable status board is designed for an iPad mounted in a hallway or kitchen, showing every dog's status at a glance with one-tap logging.
