How it works

The first filter between "something's off" and "I know what to do".

1

Say it how you'd say it

No symptom checkers or body maps. Just describe what you've noticed, like you'd tell a friend, or pick the closest common problem. Add a photo or video if it helps.

2

A few gentle questions

One at a time, in plain language. When did it start? Are they drinking? Anything different when they move?

3

An honest answer

One of three, with what to watch for and when to check back. If it's serious, PetTran says so, calmly and straight away.

The three answers

No scores. No sirens. Just words.

Every check ends with one of three plain answers. Colour supports the words, it never replaces them, and none of it is alarm red.

Make an appointment soon

I'd book a vet visit in the next day or two.

A cat going quiet, hiding, and skipping a meal can be minor, but at her age, a full day without eating is worth a proper look.

    The honest bit

    Not a vet. On purpose.

    You know your pet, and your vet knows medicine. PetTran is there to help you decide when to bring them together, and to make that visit easier when you do.

    • PetTran never diagnoses. It tells you how soon to act
    • Some signs always mean go now. PetTran skips the questions and says so
    • Every answer follows rules signed off by a registered vet before launch. Nothing is improvised
    • If you've checked three times in an hour, it gently helps you take a breath

    What the owner noticed

    "She's been hiding since this morning and hasn't touched her breakfast."

    Observations

    DrinkingA little, less than usualMovementHunched and stillMedia1 video attached

    Recent history

    2 May: straining, seen same night, cystitis. 28 April: mild sprain.

    Also in the box

    Looks after the bit after the answer, too.

    Evening check-ins

    "Keep an eye on this" means PetTran checks back at 7pm. Better, the same, or worse, and it takes it from there.

    Vet-visit summary

    A tidy one-page handover to share at the front desk, with what you noticed, the timeline and past vet findings.

    Emergency vets nearby

    The nearest clinic that's open right now, first. Call ahead in one tap. Your usual vet shows as closed at 2am, so no wasted calls.

    A history for every pet

    Every check, every answer, and what the vet said afterwards. Backed up to your own iCloud, and exportable as a PDF for a new vet.

    Photos and video

    Show the limp or the rash. It goes with the check and straight into the summary for your vet.

    Night mode

    Warm and dim, and on by itself after 9pm. Because the worrying usually starts at 2am.

    Ate something it shouldn't?

    Type the food, plant or household item for an instant check against a vet-approved danger list. Works offline, and never tells you something is safe.

    Recovery check-ins

    After a vet visit, a quick evening check for a week: better, same or worse than yesterday. And a clear nudge to call the vet if it isn't improving.

    Share their care

    A partner or housemate sees the same history and check-ins on their own iPhone, synced through iCloud rather than our servers.

    Questions

    The sensible stuff.

    Is PetTran a vet?

    No, and it never pretends to be. It doesn't diagnose or prescribe. It answers one question, how soon to act, so you can get your pet in front of a real vet at the right time.

    What if it's an emergency?

    Go straight to a vet. If you mention signs like struggling to breathe, collapse or eating something toxic, PetTran skips the questions, tells you to go now and shows the nearest open emergency clinics. If they've eaten something, the offline danger-list check gives an instant answer. That's always free.

    How does it decide?

    Not by guessing. Every question, threshold and answer comes from rules written and signed off with a registered vet. PetTran reads what you've written only to recognise the problem and ask the right questions, and it does that on your phone. When in doubt, it leans towards the more careful answer.

    Just cats and dogs?

    For now, yes. Doing two species properly beats doing ten badly.

    Why isn't it a subscription?

    Because there's nothing to keep paying for. PetTran's answers come from vet-approved rules that run on your phone, not an expensive service in the cloud, so a check costs us almost nothing. Pay once, and every check and every future update is yours.

    What happens to my pet's history?

    It stays on your phone. What you type, and any photos or videos, are never sent to us. Back it up to your own iCloud if you like, export it as a PDF, or share a summary with your vet. We never sell data, and there are no ads.

    Why "PetTran"?

    Short for pet translator. Your pet can't tell you what's wrong. PetTran helps you translate what you're seeing into what to do next.
