To use WhatsPet you need to install the app on 2 devices!
One device will be the Pet Station, which stays near your pet.
The 2nd device will be the Receiver, which stays with you and enables you to communicate with the Pet Station.
- At the very first device create your WhatsPet account by answering the question “if you already have an account” with NO. Follow the instructions of the app.
- At the 2nd device answer the question “if you already have an account” with YES and enter your credentials.
Pet Station:
Please make sure that the Pet Station is connecting to a stable internet connection. If you use WiFi make sure, that your rooter is not too far from the device.
We recommend to use a WiFi or Ethernet connection for the Pet Station.
In case you use a Tablet or Smartphone as Pet Station, please make sure, that no other apps are running in the background.
If you use a desktop as Pet Station, please make sure that the hardware is NOT entering the sleep mode.
Make sure that no firewall is blocking the Pet Station or you may NOT connect your Receiver with the Pet Station. Please avoid pushing the app away.
Always close each session with the blue button at the top left corner of the Pet Station. This avoids mal functions
Always keep the Pet Station connected to a power supply.
Receiver:
Using the features such as Live Video Talking or Live Video Streaming we recommend at least a stable 4G network.
Minimum requirement is a stable 4G network.
Also make sure that, if you use WiFi no firewall is blocking the communication with the Pet Station.
Please avoid pushing the app away.
Always close each session with the blue button at the top left corner of the Receiver.
As the Receiver has to communicate with the Pet Station it is very important, that the Receiver closes all open connection correctly. This avoids mal functions.

After the 7 days trial you will stay with the Demo Version the Live Video Streaming is disabled. You will not be charged. There is no need to send us an email to cancel a subscription.
We do not ask clients to subscribe in advance, because we think that this is not a fair business model.
But we also ask you to be fair with us and send reclamations or questions to our support team, who will always try to help you. Sending bad reviews with your problems to the Apple AppStore will not resolve your problems.
If you like the app please send positive reviews. This helps us to keep the app online and make it more reliable with each update.
