About Spot - Bring Pets Home Faster
Spot is a smart notification system to help bring your pets home faster. When your best friend goes missing, nothing is more important than getting him or her home safely. Rather than post signs around your neighborhood or messages on random forums, reach out to the dog and cat lovers in your area by sending a missing pet alert.
** AMBER ALERTS **
Spot empowers you to create a custom alert for your pet including an image and description.
** SMART NOTIFICATIONS **
When creating an alert, Spot will send to users closest to where you last saw your best friend. If someone “spots” your pal, they can reach out to you through the app.
** HELP GET PETS HOME **
Open the app at any time to see a feed of missing pets in your area. Keep the app installed for notifications when a neighbor’s pet goes missing. It's free to join the network and help missing pets find their way home. Posting an alert is available through a one time fee.
New features and fixes are always in development! If you have a feature that you would like to recommend or even a bug you would like to report, please reach out to us at spot@kleincodes.com. We also read all emails and reviews. We’re always excited to hear from our users.
From time to time, Spot may briefly access your GPS in order to have higher confidence in your location. Battery life is very important to us and we do many things to ensure we use it sparingly. Please be aware that continued use of GPS services running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.
