Why Choose Uchinoko Kiroku?
# Quick & Easy Recording
Record important information with just a few taps. You can add basic details immediately and fill in additional information later at your convenience. You can also record with a single tap from your wrist on Apple Watch.
# Privacy First
Photos of poop, pee, and other health records are stored only within the app - they won't appear in your device's photo gallery. No account or login required. Your data is stored only on your device and in your own iCloud.
# Your Data, Your Control
Export all your data as JSON format anytime. Your records belong to you and can be backed up or transferred as needed.
Key Features
# Meal Tracking
Register calorie information and portion sizes for each type of food to easily log daily meals.
You can categorize wet food, dry food, and treats for clear management.
Frequent meals can be saved as presets for quick entry, and meal presets are automatically selected based on the time of day (morning, noon, or evening).
# Health Logs
Easily record poop, pee, symptoms, and water intake.
Just select the type and amount to review daily changes at a glance in a simple list view. For poop and pee, you can also see how long it has been since the last one.
# Temperature & Weight
Quickly record temperature and weight taken at home while checking the previous values.
The latest values appear on the pet's details, and a tap opens the trend chart.
# Medications
Record the medications you give and their dosages.
Set a reminder for each medication, and link reminders to Apple's Reminders app.
# Lab Results
Record blood test and other lab values and follow the trends in a chart or table.
Take a photo of a lab result sheet to read the test items and values into the entry fields.
# Vet Visits
Record each visit and the next appointment.
Keep notes of what you want to ask the vet, and sync upcoming appointments to the iOS Calendar app.
# Free Notes & Today's Note
Add free-form notes about your pet's daily activities, moods, or anything you notice.
Entries can be organized by category (behavior, health, mood, etc.) and marked with importance levels ("Normal," "Watch," or "Caution") to help you keep track of important details.
# Pet Profiles
Register photos and basic information for each pet to manage their data individually.
You can view health and activity changes over time for each dog or cat.
# Stats & Daily Summary
Review meal quantities and bathroom logs in charts and a daily summary for better health tracking and easier vet consultations.
# iCloud Sync & Backup
Sync your data automatically across multiple iPhones and iPads with iCloud.
Backup and restore features help you safely store your valuable records.

1.5.1 2d ago
v1.5.0 update
**New**
- Take a photo of a lab result sheet, or pick one from your photos, to read the test items and values into the entry fields. Before applying them, you can compare what was read with the matching part of the sheet.
- Records of a custom lab test item can now be merged into another item. Use this if you have been recording a default item's test under a custom item. Open "Merge test items" from the "…" menu in the lab results list.
- Photos can now be pasted from the clipboard. This works in the photo section for pets, foods, and each record.
**Improvements**

1.5.0 2d ago
v1.4.10 update

1.4.10 Oct 6
v1.4.9 update
**New**
- Each pet card in the pet list now shows the next vet visit, so you can see every pet's upcoming appointment at a glance.
- Each pet card now lists vet memos not yet linked to a vet visit, so you can recall what to ask at the next appointment right from the list.
- On the day of a vet visit, the pet card shows "Vet visit today". Tap it to open the vet records and check your memos.
**Improvements**
- When a vet memo loses its link to a vet visit, the app now detects it and restores the link. Memos that cannot be restored are shown separately from drafts.
1.4.9 Oct 3
v1.4.8 update
**New**
- Vet visits and vet memos now appear in the record history. You can look back at when you went to the clinic, and what you wanted to ask next time, alongside meals and bathroom records.
**Improvements**
- Removed the "complete" action on vet memos. Memos are now organised by linking them to a vet visit, which also fixes memos disappearing from the list once they were marked complete.
- Meal presets now show why the save button is unavailable at the top of the screen, so it is clear what is still missing.
- Fixed calorie entry rejecting valid values when a larger base amount was used, making it easier to register food measured per something other than 100 g.

1.4.8 Sep 23

- Medication, meal, and water reminders now sync with Apple's Reminders app. They appear on iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple Watch, and work with Siri, the complete button, and family sharing.
- Redesigned the medication list. You can now set a separate reminder for each drug, making it easier to stay on top of doses.
**Improvements**
- Faster Apple Watch startup. The Watch app caches your last pet list and opens the record screen instantly, so the "please register a pet" screen no longer flashes on launch. A "Syncing with iPhone…" spinner is shown while data is still coming in.
- Reminder screens are much faster to open, even on devices with many calendar entries.
- Reminder icons (clock and bell) now bounce briefly when a reminder is completed or updated, so changes from another device or the Reminders app are easy to notice.

**Improvements**
