Start a read
Open the live-read camera, ready for you to frame your dog and start. Your usual read allowance still applies.
Dogoos on your Home screen
Start a read while your dog is right there. Log a bowl before you forget. Or glance at your pack without opening the app. Dogoos has four app-icon shortcuts and Home screen widgets for those everyday moments.
Press and hold the Dogoos icon
After you sign in and set up your pack, press and hold the Dogoos app icon on your phone's Home screen. Choose a shortcut, then finish the action inside the app. A shortcut never records a meal, starts a camera capture or saves a journal entry by itself.
Open the live-read camera, ready for you to frame your dog and start. Your usual read allowance still applies.
Open the meal sheet for the dog in focus. Check the food and portion before you save it.
Open the activity sheet for a walk, playtime or another moment worth keeping.
Open Rex's live conversation in the mobile app. You stay in control of the microphone and what gets saved.
A shortcut is a doorway, not an automatic save
A window into your day
Choose the Dogoos widget that fits the moment. Android tiles can be resized; iPhone widgets are being tested in small and medium sizes. Larger tiles can show more of what your signed-in app last prepared. Placement and exact size depend on your phone's launcher.
Swipe or scroll through the gallery. With the gallery focused, use the left and right arrow keys.
A glance, not a live feed. Widgets show a dated, bounded snapshot prepared by the signed-in app; they do not fetch your account from the cloud on their own. If your day changes or the app cannot show private content, the tile asks you to open Dogoos. Turning on the app's privacy lock clears personal widget details and photos. These gallery cards are illustrations, not live account previews.
Make room on your Home screen
Touch and hold empty Home screen space. On Android, choose Widgets; on iPhone, use the Home screen's edit and add-widget controls.
Pick a widget and place it where it is useful. Android launchers may let you resize it.
Sign in and let the app refresh the snapshot. Personal details appear only for the account that prepared them.
On iPhone. Matching Home screen widgets and app-icon shortcuts are being tested and will appear in a future update. The browser app has neither launcher shortcuts nor widgets.
Shortcuts and widgets lead back to the same private, signed-in app.
