About this 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.

Ratings and reviews

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! 🥺

Giving this one star for now. Just purchased the pawscout tag and after signing up and getting the subscription, I scanned my QR code to test it out. The app automatically force closes and gives the reasoning there is a bug in the app. I've tried other phones as well with the same result. If this is not fixed ASAP, I wilaube canceling my subscription.

I give it two because I like the idea. It just could be a lot better and there are better ones out there. I did have pro to get the most of the app and the price is amazing. If you have a chewer DO NOT GET THIS PRODUCT!! Mine had it chewed up the first day. Also, theres ones like this product that can track where your pup is. Instead of this, where some one else has to download this app just to scan your animals barcode.
