A stool tracker for dogs and cats
Last updated: 2 August 2026
Petpoopy is built to work without knowing anything about you. There is no account to create, no server to send your pet's records to, and no company on the other end reading them.
We do not collect, store, or transmit any of your data. Everything you record stays on your phone.
That is not a policy we chose to write kindly. It is how the app is built: there is no code in Petpoopy that sends your records anywhere, because there is nowhere for them to go.
Petpoopy collects nothing. To be specific, we do not gather:
There are no analytics tools, no advertising networks, and no third-party trackers in the app.
You can attach up to four photos to each log, and the vet report can include your most recent six.
Petpoopy asks for no camera permission and no photo library permission. Pictures come through your phone's own camera app and photo picker, which hand back only the single image you selected.
Everything lives in app-private storage on your device: your pets, every stool log, photos, weights, treatments, diet entries, and your settings.
Android's automatic cloud backup is switched off for this app, so your pet's record is not copied to your Google Drive. That is a deliberate choice. A backup that silently uploads a health record would make the promise on this page untrue.
One consequence worth knowing: because there is no cloud copy and no device transfer, a new phone starts empty. Use the export before you switch.
| Permission | Why | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Notifications | The daily reminder to log, if you turn it on | Optional |
| Run after restart | So that reminder survives a reboot | Silent |
| Vibrate | Haptic feedback, which you can switch off in Settings | Silent |
| Internet | Google Play Billing only, for the optional purchase | Silent |
| Billing | The optional one-time purchase | Silent |
Petpoopy does not request camera, photos or media, storage, microphone, location, contacts, or body sensors.
About the internet permission: the app itself makes no network requests. That permission is added automatically by Google Play's billing library so the optional purchase can be processed. Nothing about you or your pet is sent over it.
Petpoopy is a record you keep. It is not a medical device and it does not diagnose anything.
When the app raises an alert, it is telling you that something you logged is worth a phone call. It is never telling you what is wrong with your animal. The scores, charts and patterns are summaries of what you entered, nothing more.
If you are worried about your pet, ring your veterinary practice. Petpoopy is built to prompt that call, not to replace it.
Petpoopy is free to download and use. There is one optional purchase, Petpoopy Pro, which is a single payment rather than a subscription.
Payment is handled entirely by Google Play. We never see or store your card details, billing address, or any part of the transaction. All the app keeps is a single yes-or-no flag on your device recording that the unlock is active.
Google Play's own privacy policy covers the payment itself.
You can produce a one-page PDF for your vet, and you can export everything as a JSON file or as a zip that includes your photos.
These files are generated on your phone. Nothing is uploaded to make them. Where they go afterwards is entirely your choice, through your phone's usual share options, and at that point they are covered by whatever app you send them to.
Your data is yours and it is on your device, so removing it is straightforward:
There is nothing to request from us, because we hold nothing. One exception worth naming: the record that you purchased Pro survives a wipe, so that erasing your data does not also cost you the thing you paid for.
Petpoopy is intended for adults looking after a pet. It collects no data from anyone, of any age. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children, because we do not collect personal information at all.
If this policy changes, the updated version will appear here with a new date, and a material change will be noted in the app's release notes.
If Petpoopy ever gained a feature that sent data anywhere, that would be described here plainly and before the feature shipped, not after.
