Clicker training is a fun & pleasant way to help reinforce dog obedience. In order to use the app effectively during dog training, you should click immediately after a dog performs the desired behavior.

Ratings and reviews

This app does exactly one thing, so you'd think it could do it well. Nope! Why on earth is there a full second delay between hitting the button and it making the sound?? Clicker training, by design, involves clicker-ing a LOT, every time the pet makes even a little bit of progress towards the goal. Rewarding such small steps means the sound must be IMMEDIATE (hence the click, which is faster feedback than giving out a treat). A delay prevents that from being effective. You have one job. ONE.

Pretty good. Though I usually end up using a ball point pen with a loud click instead, since most phones (like mine) go into sleep mode after a while. I would suggest an option disable sleep mode like in some games for cats where the screen would stay inactive for some time.

It does exactly what it says, it clicks! But there's no helpful training content in the app, or anything else whatsoever, just the clicker. And it's a bit quiet. An electronic lighter costing around £1 does the job a lot better!
