Choose a topic below for clear, step-by-step help using the current version of LoveMyPets.

Getting started

Start by creating a profile for your pet. LoveMyPets does not require a separate account, so you can begin organizing your pet's information right away.

Add your first pet

Tap the large + button on the Home screen to create your first pet profile.

Create a profile for each pet and keep their photo, identification details and useful personal information together.

Pet information is not permanent. Open the pet profile whenever you need to change the photo, name, nickname, breed, microchip or other saved details, then tap Save.

Your pet profile at a glance

After saving a pet, LoveMyPets shows a profile screen with the main information, the pet photo and quick actions.

From here you can review the saved details, open Edit Pet to change the profile, access Medical records to create a report or PDF, and use Angel Mode when needed.

Activities and reminders

LoveMyPets uses a very similar screen for both activities and reminders. Use an activity for something that already happened, and use a reminder for something you want to remember in the future.

You can start from the Home screen using the large + button. If you only have one pet, LoveMyPets can open the screen directly. If you have more than one pet, you can first choose which pet you want to use.

Choose the type

Tap the field on the right to select the type of activity you want to record.

2

Set the date and fill the details

Choose the date, then fill in the fields that appear for that activity type, such as weight, notes or other useful information.

3

Save the activity

Tap Save when you are done. The new activity will be added to your pet's history.

Activity types

Select the right category

Choose the category that best matches what you want to save, for example weight, vaccine, parasite care, grooming, vet visit, medication, surgery, food, expenses and more.

LoveMyPets changes the fields automatically based on the selected category, so you only see the information that matters for that activity.

Need another category? If the available types are not enough, you can create additional custom categories from Settings.
Medication schedules: medication entries can include an administration frequency, such as once a day or every 12 hours, so repeated doses are easier to manage.
LoveMyPets completed activity example
Example of a saved activity entry

Example: record a completed activity

For an activity that has already happened, enter the real information you want to keep. In this example, the pet's weight and a note are saved together with the date.

This is useful for building a clear history that you can review later by pet and by category.

Choose a future date

For reminders, set a date in the future so the event is scheduled in advance.

5

Set the time for the notification

Choose the time you want to be notified and add a note if needed.

6

Save the reminder

When you save it, LoveMyPets will notify you on the selected day and at the selected time.

Review activities and reminders

Use the Activities tab to review what has already happened and the Reminder tab to see what is still coming up. Both views keep entries organized for the selected pet.

Open the filter

Tap the filter button at the bottom left when you want to focus on a specific type of activity.

Dynamic activity filter

Filter only what is actually in your history

The filter is dynamic: it only shows categories that are currently present in the list. For example, if your history contains only Weight, Visit and Surgery entries, those are the categories you can filter.

As you add new types of activities, the relevant filter options become available automatically.

Upcoming reminders

See what is coming next

The Reminder tab shows future entries in chronological order and groups them by month, so upcoming medication, grooming, vaccines and other scheduled care are easy to scan.

Each reminder shows its type, date and time.

Activity details and actions

Open an entry for more details

Tap the ••• button on an activity to expand it. The card can then show the additional information you saved, such as a note, weight, price or other fields for that category.

Completed activities have two actions: Edit to change the saved details and Delete to remove the entry.

Manage reminders from the same card

Tap ••• on a reminder to see its saved details and three actions: Completed, Edit and Delete.

Completed marks the reminder as done and moves it to the completed Activities history. Edit lets you change the date, time or notes while keeping the original activity type. Delete removes the reminder.

Expired reminders: if the scheduled time passes before the reminder is completed, LoveMyPets highlights it in red, shows an Expired status and displays a badge on the Reminder tab so it is easy to notice.
Diary and memories

The Diary lets you keep a visual memory of everyday life with your pets. Save a photo for a day, add a mood, and look back at those moments later.

Weekly memories

Look back week by week

Switch to the Weekly view to see several diary memories together, grouped by week.

This gives you a quick visual overview of recent moments without opening each day individually.

Share memories: diary memories can be shared when you want to keep a special moment elsewhere or send it to family and friends.
iCloud and synchronization

LoveMyPets stores your data privately in your iCloud account and can keep supported information synchronized across devices that use the same Apple ID.

If information does not appear on another device, make sure you are signed in to iCloud and that iCloud access is enabled for LoveMyPets.

Widgets

LoveMyPets widgets let you keep useful information visible directly on your iPhone Home Screen without opening the app.

Keep the next reminder in sight

The large widget shows the next upcoming reminder together with the latest photo saved in the Diary.

LoveMyPets also includes a compact widget that focuses on the next reminder only, without the diary image.

At a glance: choose the widget size that fits your Home Screen and keep upcoming pet care visible throughout the day.
Angel Mode

Angel Mode is intended only for a pet that has passed away. It lets you keep the pet's profile, memories and previously recorded history in LoveMyPets while removing future reminders that are no longer needed.

Activate Angel Mode only when appropriate

Open the pet profile and tap Angel Mode only when the pet has passed away.

2

Keep the memories and past history

Your previously recorded information and memories remain available so you can continue to look back at the pet's story.

3

Future reminders are removed

Any future reminders for that pet are deleted when Angel Mode is activated.

Important: Angel Mode is irreversible. Activate it only when you are sure you want to make this permanent change.
