1.6 GreyhoundWalk first, sign up later

This one is about the first five minutes. The app opens by asking about your dog, and you can walk, track routes and explore the map before you make an account. Until you make one you are invisible to everyone else, and the app says so rather than letting you find out. Your profile became a page, with a handle and an About me. Short lessons point at the real controls as you reach each screen. And there is a weekly plan alongside monthly and annual.

The app opens on a choice now: sign in, or start without an account. There is no wall in front of the first walk
Starting without one asks about your dog — a name and a photo
Then walking, routes and the map work straight away. An account comes later, and nothing is lost when you make one
A guest is not visible to other people — not to walkers nearby, not in city lists, no friend requests, no Paw Coins. The screens that need an account say so instead of failing quietly
A guest account lives on this phone only. It cannot be restored on another one, and anyone who picks up this phone reaches it
Short lessons appear on each screen as you get to it, with a hole cut around the real control and a real tap. Close ends that one lesson, not the rest
They explain the parts that are not obvious on sight — like the hexagons the map is split into, which fill in as you walk them and deepen as you come back
Your profile is a page now: a handle that is yours across the app, an About me of up to 150 characters, and your age in years. Your date of birth is never shown to anyone
The people you meet get the same page, so a friend’s profile and your own look and work alike
You can set your date of birth once, and change your handle once every 30 days
A referral code is typed on the sign-up screen now, instead of the card that used to sit on the People tab and the invite screen
A weekly plan joined the monthly and annual ones, and the Plus screen says what each thing does for you rather than listing feature names. What a guest cannot switch on is grouped and labelled instead of being sold to them. The free trial is on the annual plan only
We added Google Analytics for Firebase to see where people give up while setting the app up. We never send it your location — no coordinate, no area, no route, no place name — nor your name, your email, your handle or anything you wrote. Google works out an approximate location from your network address, and that we cannot switch off. You can turn the whole thing off in Settings

1.5 FoxhoundThe weather, before you go out

This one is about the weather. The map tells you what it is doing now and which hours suit a walk better; a finished walk remembers the weather it happened in, and earns achievements for the bad ones. A day the weather made dangerous no longer breaks your streak. And the walk card you share now has a background that matches the day.

The current weather sits next to the walk row on the map. Open it and it shows the best hours to head out over the next twenty-four hours — after nine in the evening, tomorrow morning instead
A warning when rain is starting within the hour
A morning notification when the day is hard — heat, frost or strong wind — naming the hours that suit a walk better
If your dog or cat handles heat or cold badly, mark it on their profile and the thresholds tighten for that pet alone
A reminder during tick season, and a short guide for when a tick is already attached
A finished walk remembers its weather: minutes of rain or snow, and how cold or warm it was. It shows on the walk, in your history and in the friends feed
New achievements and titles for walking in rain, snow, fog, frost and heat
A missed day no longer breaks your streak when the weather that day was dangerous. The app tells you when it kept one for you
The walk card background is now a swipe: a photograph matching your walk's weather, the route as a transparent sticker, the map, or a photo of your own
The square post format is gone. The card is one story size, 1080 by 1920
All of it switches off in one place: Settings, App settings, Show weather
Weather provided by Apple Weather

1.4 ElkhoundThe walk on your lock screen

Most of this one you see without unlocking your phone. The walk you are on sits on the lock screen and in the Dynamic Island — time, distance, your dogs' names — and pauses from there. Plus one tap from a finished walk into Instagram Stories, two more training skills, and a route that no longer breaks when you stand still.

The walk you are on, on the lock screen and in the Dynamic Island: time, distance and your dogs' names, moving as you move
Pause and resume from there without unlocking. The button is set to require Face ID, Touch ID or your passcode first. It needs iOS 17 or later
Anyone holding your locked phone can read the card, so you can turn it off: Settings, App settings, Lock screen. The card ends straight away
One tap from a finished walk into Instagram Stories, with the card already on the canvas. The ordinary share sheet is still right next to it
The date is now on the card by default, so a walk you share from your history no longer reads as today's. The time moved to the right, and the pace sits under the distance
Two more training skills: wait at the door, and paw. Five levels each, with the same demo clips as the rest
Every level of every skill now has its clip. There are no silent lessons left
What is free changed shape. The skill that matches your pet's goal is free in full, all five levels: calm at home gives you stay, walking gives you loose-leash walking, the basics give you sit. The first level of the other first-wave skills stays free. Leave it and drop it are part of Tailomi Plus now
Your route no longer breaks when you stand still. iPhone used to stop recording during a long stop and pick it up later, drawing a straight line through the gap. It does not any more

iPhone · Released 5 September 2026

1.3 DalmatianA city you can actually walk a dog in

This one is about the street outside your door. What to do when your dog swallows something on the pavement, which clinic is open at three in the morning, who else is out walking right now, and which park is worth the trip. Plus a card you can put in your stories after a walk.

Emergency card: seven first-aid guides — poisoning, choking, bleeding, heatstroke, a paw wound, a seizure, a road accident. Each one is three things to do first, what not to do, and when a vet is the only answer
Those guides are stored in the app, not fetched, so they open with no signal at all — which is the moment you actually need them. They are not a substitute for a vet, and each one says so
Clinics open around the clock, sorted by how far they are, with walking directions and a call button where we have the number. From an SOS button on the map, from your pet, or from settings
Walk story: turn a finished walk into a card for stories or a post. Either the route as a transparent sticker, or the map from the walk. What appears on it — distance, time, pace, pet, date — is yours to choose in settings
Photos of your pet: up to five, on the profile you already have. Instagram and TikTok chips if you want them there
A link to your pet's profile you can send to anyone. It now expires after thirty days, and sharing a new one kills the old link
People replaces Friends. It shows who is out walking near you right now — and when nobody is, who walked in your city this week. You can turn yourself off in settings
Favourite places: star a park, a clinic, a water tap. The map filters to them, and your starred vet shows up first on the emergency screen
Place cards now carry photos, what the place actually has — fence, lighting, drinking water, surface — and a description where one exists. Directions hand off to your maps app
A place has closed, or is on the map as the wrong thing? Report it. Three people saying the same thing fixes the map. Vet clinics are checked by a human first — three throwaway accounts should not be able to hide a clinic
Weekly goal for each pet: a minute target for the week, a ring that fills, and every family member's walks count toward it
Safe zones and hazard alerts are one thing now, not two screens that did not know about each other
Stop a walk with no signal and it is no longer lost — the app finishes it as soon as it can reach the server, with the time you actually stopped
Training: two more skills, leave it and drop it, five levels each. Leave it is free in full — a dog that ignores what is on the pavement is safety, not a paid feature
Invite someone and you both get Paw Coins once they have walked a real walk
The app now reports crashes to us so we can fix them. It still carries no third-party analytics, and crash reports are stripped of network traffic and location before they leave your phone

1.2 CorgiA new name, dog training and a map worth using

Pet Walker is now Tailomi — the same app, the same account, the same walks. Inside: step-by-step training for your dog, a medical card that keeps feeding, medication and vet visits in one place, and a map that other owners keep alive. And out on a walk you can finally say hello to the owner you keep passing.

Pet Walker is now Tailomi. Nothing else moved — your account, pets, walks, history and subscription are exactly where you left them
Dog training: five skills — sit, down, stay, recall and loose-leash walking — five levels each, run rep by rep with a virtual clicker and a level you cannot skip until your dog has done it twice on different days
A placement test if your dog already knows the basics, sessions that work with no signal and sync later, and a photo you can share with friends when a skill is mastered
Medical card: reminders for feeding, medication with a course end date and vet visits, next to the walk schedule — with a record of what was actually done, kept for the whole family
Walk reminders now take any days of the week instead of every day
A far bigger map: vets including 24/7, pet stores, dog parks, parks, drinking water, waste-bag dispensers, groomers, boarding, trainers and dog-friendly venues — all of Ukraine loaded, everywhere else filling in as people walk
Add what is missing: submit a place, put a photo on it, confirm what someone else found or mark it gone — all checked against where you actually are
Report a hazard — poison, glass, an aggressive dog, a blocked path — so the next owner sees it before walking into it. Free for everyone
Air-raid shelters in Ukraine from official city registries, each with a crowd-checked note on whether you can get in with a dog
New exploration badges for the ground you cover: how well you know your own block, how much of the city you have walked, and full rings around home
The pet page is redesigned around how it is actually used: a compact profile card, mood at a glance, and one tap between schedule, training, overview and family instead of one long scroll — with weight now tracked
Walk together: while you are out walking, invite someone walking nearby — a ready-made line, a park to meet at if you want, and a chat that opens only if they accept. Silence is a no: an ignored invitation quietly expires and the sender is never told
Raise the open-to-company flag for a walk and other walkers can invite you along; it drops when the walk ends. Adults only, blocking and reporting are a tap away, and every conversation closes itself after a day
Tailomi Plus adds watched areas that alert you when a new hazard appears where you walk, training levels 3–5, your contribution stats and more room to walk together — five invitations a day instead of one a week, in your own words, to anyone out walking nearby. Sit stays free in full, levels 1–2 of every other skill are free, and levels, badges and titles are still earned by walking

iPhone · Released 7 August 2026

1.1 BasenjiTailomi Plus, city exploration and pet mood

The biggest update so far: a map that fills in as you walk, a clearer read on how your pet is doing, and an optional subscription for households — while everything that makes progress stays free.

City exploration: finished walks paint your map, and a badge shows how much of your city you have covered
Pet mood on a 0–100 scale, built from how recent, how long and how regular your walks are — with the minutes left to make your pet happy today
Family pets now hold up to four people, sharing one pet's history, stats and mood
Walk invites can carry a meeting point and a time that both of you see on the map
GPS quality: the app tells you honestly when a walk recorded badly instead of showing a distance that makes no sense
Tailomi Plus — an optional subscription adding family sharing, hiding from nearby walkers, insights and pet care trends
Experience, levels, badges, titles, Paw Coins and the leaderboard stay free and earned by walking

What we are working on

Two things are in the works: bringing Tailomi to Android, and turning a finished walk into a short video you can share. We do not announce dates — every update goes through App Store review, so we would rather ship than promise.
