About this app

Developer Description

Pet Social and Safety App

With Pawscout’s free app, safety and community are always in paw’s reach. Help lost pets, connect with local pet owners, track walks, and browse thousands of pet points of interest.

A Free App to Help Lost Pets
Most lost pets don’t go far—that’s why it’s crucial to rally your community. Pawscout’s App makes it easy to enlist local pet lovers in the search, and our Bluetooth-enabled Tag (optional) alerts users when a lost pet is nearby. A detailed medical profile helps pet heroes care for your furry BFF until you can be reunited.

Connect with Pets Nearby
Build your local network of pet lovers with Pawscout’s social tools. Share photos, arrange walks and playdates, and alert neighbors to pet hazards or pet-friendly places. Invite friends and family to expand your “petwork.”

Track Walks and Set a Virtual Pet Leash
Pawscout, the Smarter Pet Tag (MSRP $19.99), works with our free App to keep tabs on your favorite furball. Track walks and monitor your pet’s activity levels. Or set an outdoor virtual pet leash while you’re outside, and receive alerts on your phone when your pet goes out of range.

-The Pawscout App relies on Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) to communicate with your Pawscout Smarter Pet Tag. Your pet must be within 300 feet of you or anyone with the Pawscout App to locate him or her.
-The Pawscout App relies on Location Services and Bluetooth, which must be enabled on your phone.
-Works with Lollipop (Android 5) or newer.

For the price, I think Pawscout is good value. I have 2 dogs and bought the annual (Pro) version. All seems well so far. Both of the tags have paired up via Bluetooth quickly and easily. I love the walk tracking. The time, distance, and mapping are great to keep. My only real criticism is that the app doesn’t allow you to save the tracked walk unless you share it with Pawscout's Social or Facebook. I don't have Facebook, and I don't want to share where I walk on social media. Screenshot? 🤔

I would love to give 5 stars, though I can not. We discovered this gadget through our neighbor and their outdoor cat and thought it was nifty... in case, when our cat or dog got out. They're both escape artists, houdini's. Who loves nothing more than to explore the neighborhood and harass our fellow neighbors. So, we bought the pro version so we can be alerted of anything and get all those nifty features... yeah, I tried tracking my cat and got a notification that the app has a bug. Womp womp!

Would love to be able to rate this higher but I am not impressed up to this point. Mine is not working again which I found out when I opened the app to try to locate my dog when she went off gallivanting. This meaning of course that her location was not being tracked. Then, I find out it stopped working not long after I replaced the battery the last time. I was never notified that the device was not connected, believing I was protected the entire time when she wasn't even being tracked.

It states above that the latest update fixed the bug that automatically forces closed the app, and gives the reasoning that there is a bug in the app. However, despite several attempts at fixing this ie: uninstalling, and reinstalling, clearing my cache....it STILL is NOT FIXED?? I am closing my account and returning it if this isn't resolved soon. What a shame🙄 had the potential to be a wonderful app in aiding to keep our fur babies safe! 🥺
