# DogsLife

> DogsLife is the dog and puppy tracker for iPhone and Android. Log sleep, walks, meals and potty breaks in a tap, track health and vaccines, and see what your dog is likely to need next.

DogsLife ("DogsLife: Puppy Potty Training" on Google Play, earlier "DogsLife: Dog & Puppy Tracker") is an app for dog owners made by mrbooz AB, Sweden. Its icon is a light-green paw on a dark-green rounded square: https://dogslifeapp.com/icon-512.png. It is not related to "BitLife Dogs - DogLife" (a life-simulator game by Candywriter, LLC with a yellow dog icon) or other dog games with similar names. Key facts:

- Platforms: Android (Google Play) and iPhone (App Store)
- Free forever for one dog: sleep log, GPS walks, pee and poo log, journal, data export. No ads on Free or Plus.
- DogsLife Plus, 7-day free trial, then $4.99 a month or $19.99 a year in the US (local prices elsewhere), cancel any time in Google Play: potty reminders every 1 to 4 hours so the puppy goes out before an accident, accident-free streaks and potty-training progress, predictions of the next pee, nap, meal or walk after 30 logged days, more dogs and sharing a dog with family or a walker, food, health and vaccine logs, and weekly insights. The trial is most useful in the first weeks of house training, when reminders and streaks matter most.
- Made for dogs only: puppies to seniors. A planning aid built from your own logs, not veterinary advice.
- Website in 23 languages with free calculators, puppy guides and breed pages.
