Everything you need to get the most out of your pup's first year — and a real human on the other end.
No. Northpup works the moment you open it — no sign-up, no login, no email required. You set up your pup's profile (name, breed, birthdate) and your personalized first-year map appears right away.
Quite a lot: your personalized first-year map, the daily "one thing to do today," basic weight and vaccine logging, and one full growth-curve reveal so you can see the magic before deciding on Pro.
Not at all. Northpup builds the map from your pup's exact age, so it picks up wherever you are in the first year and shows what's ahead. The earlier you start the more you'll get, but it's genuinely useful at any point in year one.
Choose the closest match or a mixed-breed option. Care stages and socialization priorities adapt to the size or breed group you pick; you can update the breed later in the pup's profile and the map recalculates.
It's keyed to your pup's age-stage and expected adult size — so a 9-week-old gets crate-nap and early-socialization steps, while a 5-month-old gets adolescence and impulse-control work. It's a real plan for your dog, not a generic checklist.
It is an age guide for the first year, with care stages and vet checkpoints in order. Stars show age stages passed; they do not prove that care is complete. Check actual shots in Health and practice ticks on Today.
Your past practice ticks stay saved. A daily streak counts days in a row, so it can reset after a missed day. Pick up with today's step whenever you return.
Log a weight and Northpup keeps the actual date and your pup's age at that weigh-in. Growth shows their own curve and the measured change between weigh-ins. Your first visit is free, even if you already logged several weights; that reveal stays available later. Pro adds later reveals and the full history.
No. Weight alone cannot show whether growth is healthy. The chart is a dated record to discuss with your veterinarian. Always consult your veterinarian for health decisions.
Yes. Health logging is free. Confirm the actual shot date from your pup's vaccine card; suggested dates do not prove a dose. The app can send one daily care reminder. Follow your vet's plan for due dates.
Northpup stores records on this device, with no separate Northpup cloud account. Apple’s device backup may help when moving phones, but the app cannot check or restore that backup itself. Keep a copy of important records before deleting the app.
$49.99/year (eligible Apple accounts can get 7 days free) or $9.99/month. The yearly plan is the best value. You can start with the free features as long as you like.
Eligible Apple accounts can get 7 days free on the yearly plan. Payment begins when the trial ends. To avoid renewal, cancel at least 24 hours before it ends in Settings ▸ Apple ID ▸ Subscriptions.
On your iPhone, open Settings ▸ tap your name ▸ Subscriptions ▸ Northpup, and manage or cancel there. Subscriptions are handled by Apple, so cancellation goes through your Apple ID.
Open Northpup, go to Settings, and tap "Restore Purchases." Sign in with the Apple ID that bought an active Northpup subscription. Restore checks that purchase and shows whether Pro was restored or no active subscription was found.
Your pup records and photos stay on this device. The app fetches an anonymous app catalog, and Apple handles subscriptions. Optional feedback sends your message and device context; bug reports can also include recent app activity and a picture you choose to attach. The feedback tool can check for shipped-idea notices after you use it. See our Privacy Policy for the full detail.
