How to upload and organize pet documents

Keep your pet's vet records, insurance papers and other documents in one place. Documents are a Premium feature. Without Premium, the Documents tab shows example documents.

Add a document

1. Tap your pet on the main screen.
2. Scroll the tabs at the top and tap Documents.
3. Tap Document.
4. Choose where the document comes from:
   • Files to pick a file from your phone,
   • Scan Document to scan a paper document with your camera,
   • Camera to take a photo,
   • Gallery to pick a photo you already have.
5. Choose a Category, and a Document Type if you like.
6. Enter a Title.
7. Optionally add a Description, an Issue Date and an Expiry Date.
8. Tap Save.

When you add an Expiry Date, Doggy Time reminds you before the document expires, for example when a vaccination is due. Once the date has passed, it shows in red.

Find and open a document

• Use the category picker at the top of the Documents tab to show one category, or choose All to show everything.
• Tap a document to see its details.
• Tap View to open it in the app. Files the app can't show open with Open in Browser instead.

Share, edit or delete a document

1. Open the document.
2. To share it, tap Share and choose an app. This sends a link to the document.
3. To change or remove it, tap the three dots at the top right, then Edit or Delete.

Troubleshooting

• "Document must be synced to the cloud before sharing": you need to be signed in and online. Wait a moment for the document to upload, then try again.
• "Category is required" or "Title is required": fill in the missing field, then tap Save.
• "Unable to open document": check your internet connection and try again.
