PawsRec

PawsRec is a health diary made for pet owners. Your little one can't tell you what's wrong — but keep logging, and the patterns surface on their own. PawsRec turns every meal, drink, event, bathroom trip, symptom, and treatment into a colorful stamp on a calendar. Log for two or three weeks, then open Analysis — it overlays two timelines, "what they ate" and "what symptoms showed up," so you can see the link between food and symptoms directly. Chasing down a food allergy or intolerance — no more guessing. One-tap stamps, far faster than notes Turn the foods, treats, and meds you use most into custom stamps with their own color, shape, and name. Tap once when it happens — the timestamp is written for you. Life-size excretion logging Draw the shape and length of poop with your finger; the app renders it at true 1:1 physical size (auto-detects your device model, no calibration needed) and supports the vet-standard Bristol 1–7 scale. Circle a pee puddle and the area is calculated automatically. The shape itself is preserved — when you look back, you see the actual form at the time, not just a number. Clock-style weight wheel Scroll to log weight like setting an alarm: 0.1 precision, auto carry, kg / lb. Weight trends are plotted as a curve, so drops and gains are obvious at a glance. Events, logged by severity Vomiting, itching, lethargy and other preset events, with a 1–5 severity level and notes. These are exactly the clues correlation analysis uses to surface allergens. Correlation analysis: spot delayed allergies Two dotted timelines plus a time-shift slider let you slide symptoms a few days to align them with food. A plain-language summary card tells you the result, clearly noting "correlation is not causation — confirm with your vet." Multiple pets · Vet PDF · Family co-care Switch freely between cats and dogs, each with its own stamp library and weight curve. Export a PDF report in one tap to hand your vet at a checkup. Invite family to co-care for the same pet, with records synced in real time. Privacy first By default everything stays on your device. With sync on, data is transmitted encrypted and visible only to you and the family you invite. We don't sell data and we don't run ads. — PawsRec doesn't diagnose for you. It does one thing: it turns your 5 seconds of logging each day into a report you can bring to your vet. About subscriptions The free version covers 1 pet, with unlimited stamps, family co-care, cloud sync, and full history.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: DayGram at every 3 days against PawsRec's every 3 weeks. DayGram also leads on device support (5 vs 2) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 17.0). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
