How to log a walk with the map feature

When you start a "Walk" in Doggy Time, you have the option to enable the map feature. This will track your walk and show you the route you took.

Here's how to log a dog walk with the map feature:

1. Open the Doggy Time app on your phone.
2. Tap on a dog's profile.
3. Tap on the "Walk" button.
4. Enable location tracking by turning the "Enable GPS Tracking" switch on.
5. Start the walk by tapping on the Play button.

Live activities will be shown on your phone's lock screen with details on total time and distance. When the app is open you can also see a live view of your walk on the map.

* The GPS feature is new and we're fine tuning a few things so if it is not fully accurate, please bear with us as we make improvements.

Privacy

We use location information to:

• Track and log activities that depend on geographic context.
• Provide you with accurate, activity-related insights and records within the app.

We do not share location information with third parties. Location data is only used within the app to support this functionality. You can manage or revoke the app's access to your location at any time through your device's privacy settings. Please note that this feature may not work correctly if location access is revoked.

Why we need locations permissions:

We need precise location access to:

• Accurately track your walking route and distance
• Provide detailed maps of your walks
• Calculate exact speed and pace
• Ensure accurate fitness metrics

We need background location access to:

• Continue tracking your walks even when the screen is locked
• Record your complete route without interruption
• Save your walk data automatically
