What is new
Only what you can notice. Fixes under the bonnet are not listed here.
Illness and injury in the health journal
Two kinds of entry that were missing have joined weight, vaccination, deworming, medication and allergies: illness and injury. An illness records the diagnosis as the vet gave it, an injury what happened; details go in the note and you can schedule the follow-up straight away. Both print on the health card — this is exactly the part of an animal's history people remember least and need most at a new vet.
A health card you can print
An animal's health now fits on one page: who they are, microchip number, vaccinations and dewormings with dates, medication, allergies, latest weight and what is coming up. The card is built from your records every time, so it is always current — take it to the vet or hand it over with the animal to its new family. Printing also offers saving as PDF, on a computer and on a phone. A memorial profile prints no future dates.
A shelter's page as its own app
Shelter and breeder pages have a new look: a large cover photo, a highlighted “How to help”, adoption steps and a gallery. On a phone the page looks like the shelter's own app — without our menu, with the shelter's bar at the bottom — and supporters can add it to their home screen with the shelter's icon. The new For shelters page explains why to take a page over.
Donation QR codes for Slovak and Polish banks too
A shelter's account number now also appears as a payment QR code for Slovak and Polish banks. Next to the account number there is a copy button — useful for donors whose bank can't read a foreign QR code.
A page for every breed
Every breed kept by at least two kennels here now has its own page with the list of breeders and the countries they are in. You can send a link straight to Labrador breeders instead of to a directory with filters set. The link sits above the list of kennels.
Breeds in every language, and rabbits
The breed picker was half in English: only 254 of 412 breeds had a Czech name, 103 a Slovak one. Every breed now has a name in all five languages. Sixty-two rabbit breeds were added — a rabbit owner had to type the breed by hand until now. „House Rabbit“ is on the list for those without one. Search also finds a breed typed without accents.
Shelters by region and town
The directory of shelters and breeders now has its own page for every country, region and town. You can send a link straight to the shelters in one region instead of a filtered list. A town with a single shelter has no page of its own — the link goes to that shelter directly.
Hearts, messages and sharing on articles
Every article on the blog now has a heart, a place to leave a message, and sharing to social networks. The blog listing can be filtered by topic. A message is never published on its own — we read it first, so the comments do not fill up with spam.
Blog
There is a new Blog page with articles about life with animals — care, adoption, loss, and what stays afterwards. Each article appears in the language it was written in, and a link to another language shows up only where that translation really exists. To hear about new articles right away, subscribe to the feed at /en/blog/feed.xml.
Sign in with Google or Facebook
The sign-in screen now has Continue with Facebook and Continue with Google below the e-mail field. One tap and you are in — no address to type, no link to find. Anyone who has signed in by e-mail before gets the same account, as long as the address matches. The e-mail link and fingerprint sign-in both stay.
Memories can be edited, deleted, and carry video
Every entry in the chronicle now has an Edit button — the title, text, date and photo can be corrected, a video added or replaced, and the entry deleted. Only the owner, or whoever wrote it, may delete it. A memory can now carry a video too; it counts towards the minutes in the plan, just like the video on a pet's profile.
Share a page, publish a memory later
A pet's public page and each single memory can now be shared — on a phone the usual sheet opens, on a computer the link is copied. And an entry in the chronicle can be put on the public page afterwards. Until now that was only possible while writing it, so anyone who turned the public page on later found it empty.
After taking over a pet it is clear what comes next
Whoever takes a pet over by QR code now sees what they actually got: how many photos, how many health records and when the next appointment is, plus three steps worth starting with. Until now they landed on the profile with no explanation.
Memories have their own place in the list
Pets that have died are now listed in their own section below the living ones. The thumbnail loses its colour and a mourning ribbon crosses one corner, so the card is recognisable at a glance.
The health journal can be corrected
An entry can now be edited or deleted, and a planned appointment has a Done button. It writes a new entry, carries the interval over from the previous one and clears the due date on the old one — so the vaccination history stays whole and no reminder is left hanging on something already finished.
In memory
An animal that has died can have a public memorial page at its own address, one that can go into an announcement. The family decides whether it is seen only by whoever gets the link, or also by people browsing the new In memory list. Anyone can light a candle there, account or not.
You can write back to the finder
Recognise your animal among the found ones and you can write to the finder straight from the listing. Messages go through the app, so neither side hands over a phone number or an address, and a new message arrives by e-mail. The finder can close the report and note down who they handed the animal to.
A directory of shelters
Over two thousand shelters and animal welfare groups from Czechia, Slovakia, Germany, Austria and Poland — with an address, a contact and a link to their own site. Whoever claims their profile can list animals for adoption on it.
Missing and found
If a pet goes missing, you can now report it from their profile — they appear on the list and you get a link to send to neighbours. The same list holds animals somebody found and animals looking for a home. Anyone who finds a stray can report it too.
Signing in with a fingerprint
Instead of waiting for an email, a fingerprint, your face or the phone code is enough. We offer it right after you sign in, setting it up is a single tap, and Account can turn it on later. The email link still works — a fingerprint belongs to one device, so a new phone will need it.
We ask about rights with your first photo
Until now only publishing was confirmed. From now on the first photo you upload comes with a question about whether you hold the rights to it — because a private photo can become public at any time, and by then it is too late to ask. Confirming once per account is enough; we will not ask again.
Search in the animal list
A shelter with forty animals had to find them by eye. There is now a field above the list that searches name, breed and species — accents and capitals do not matter, so “zeryk” finds Žeryk. It appears once there is enough to search through.
Litters are part of the Breeder plan
Breeding records were open to everyone by mistake, even though the pricing page lists them under Breeder. Starting a litter now needs the plan. Anyone who recorded litters earlier keeps them and can still correct them — they just cannot add another.
Photos now count against storage too
The pricing page always promised two hundred photos on the free plan, but nobody was counting. Now they are counted — and so is the space they take, because a hundred large photos take more room than a thousand small ones. Free means two hundred photos or a hundred megabytes; paid plans get five and twenty-five gigabytes. Shelters have no cap. Your account page shows how much you have left.
The whole pedigree for everyone
The free plan used to stop at two generations. A pedigree cut short is worse than none, so the whole tree is now part of every plan, the free one included.
Clear rules for video
Video is part of the paid plans: 60 minutes on Premium, 150 on Breeder. A shelter gets one video on its profile and a minute for each animal, free and outside any plan. The price list used to talk about gigabytes, but video is not billed that way — it is billed per minute, so that is what the price list says now.
The public page finally tells a story
A chronicle entry can now carry a photo and be ticked to show on the animal's public page. Visitors can send a heart and write a message there. The heart counts straight away; the message waits until the owner releases it. Unticked entries stay private as before.
Reminders now reach your phone
Besides e-mail, reminders can arrive as notifications. One button in Account turns them on. On iPhone the app has to be added to the home screen first — otherwise Apple will not allow them and gives no sign of it.
Litters for kennels
A breeder can keep litters with the mating date, counts of born and raised animals and notes. Puppies are then grouped by litter on the public page. Colour and an indicative price were added to the animal.
The public pet page shows more
Age, species, sex, a photo gallery and video have been added. The chronicle stays private — only photos you mark are public.
Reminders now arrive by e-mail
Until now a due date showed only to whoever opened the app — never to the person who forgot. An e-mail now arrives a week ahead, so there is time to book a vet. Nothing ever arrives about an animal in memorial mode.
Paid plans can be bought
You can move to Premium or Breeder from the pricing page. Payment is by card; in Czech crowns that is the only method the gateway offers. The yearly plan is a third cheaper than twelve monthly ones.
A receipt arrives by e-mail
Right after payment, with the date, the amount and both parties. It is not a tax invoice — we are not registered for VAT, so the price is final and no tax is shown.
Two ways to end a subscription
Within fourteen days by withdrawing, which ends it at once. Later by terminating with one month's notice, where the unused remainder is refunded. They are different rights, so they are two buttons. A termination can be taken back until it takes effect.
Terms and data handling
Both are now on the site in all five languages, available without signing in. The link is in the footer.
Language switch and a tidier Account
You can switch the app language in Account — until now it was taken from the browser. The screen itself is rearranged into four sections, and the plan finally shows how to change it.
Deleting your account
You can now delete your account. It first offers to hand an animal over to somebody else so the chronicle survives. For thirty days everything comes back if you sign in, and memorial pages can live on.
Download your own data
Your account page now has a link that downloads everything we hold about you and your animals. Photos are inside as links valid for an hour.
More photos for an animal
A listing can now carry up to eight photos. The chronicle stays private — only photos uploaded on the “Looking for a home” page are public.
Shelter photo gallery
A shelter profile can now carry up to twelve photos — of the place, of puppies going home, of an open day. They appear on the public page between the animals and how to help.
Rights to photos and video
Before a page goes public you now confirm that you may publish the photos and video. Ordinary uploads to the chronicle have no checkbox — just a line by the button. The chronicle is private; a public page is not.
The photo on the public page
The public page and the link preview on social networks ran without a photo, even when the animal had one. Now it shows. Every other photo in the chronicle stays private — only the profile one is public.
Reminders actually appear now
A due date written in the health record now shows up under Reminders. Until now it never got there, so the section stayed empty. Dates entered earlier were filled in automatically.
Video for an animal and for a shelter
Ten seconds of a dog running across a field says more than three paragraphs. The video uploads straight from a phone, plays anywhere, and a shelter can add a short clip of the place itself.
I want this animal
Listings now have a button. The person writes a few words about themselves, the shelter finds it under the bell, and the e-mail address is unlocked only once the shelter chooses them. The page shows how many people got in touch — not a position, because there is no queue.
Every animal in one place
Animals from every shelter now sit on a single page that anyone can share — not just the shelter. Filter by species and region, and the filtered link can be passed on as it is.
A few words about the animal
Every listing can carry a few sentences about character. “Affectionate but timid” decides more than breed and age — and it is the first thing a visitor reads.
Shelters can introduce themselves
A shelter page now says who runs it, how adoption works there, when you can visit and how to help. The bank account also appears as a QR code that banking apps can read.
Looking for a home
An animal in a shelter's care gets a public page with a photo, age and town. Social networks pull a preview card from it, so a shared link looks like a picture rather than an address.
Handover by QR code
The new owner scans a code and the animal moves across with its whole chronicle. The shelter can be left a view of how the animal is doing — that is the new owner's decision.
Pedigree
Animals now have Ancestry. Pick a father and a mother; older generations fill themselves in as the tree grows. After a handover the pedigree stays visible to the new owner.
Shelter profiles
Shelters have their own profile, belonging to the organisation rather than to one person. An administrator invites colleagues by link, so people can come and go without the shelter losing anything.
The chronicle starts itself
A new animal no longer arrives to an empty timeline. The first entry is written for you, dated to the day the animal came.
Signing in, in your language
The sign-in email arrives in Czech, Slovak, English, German or Polish. First-time visitors go straight to adding an animal; returning ones land with theirs.
