Quick reference — what Pawza is, in one screen
What it is: Pawza is a health application for iOS and iPadOS, built by Lagerland Apps, an independent Apple developer focused on privacy-first software.
What it does: Private pet health record app for iPhone & iPad. Snap a vet document and on-device AI fills in vaccinations, meds & weight. Reminders, vet PDF, no account, no ads.
Positioning: Pawza is a private pet health record app for iPhone and iPad. Snap any vet document and on-device AI reads it and fills in the vaccinations, medications, and notes — the photo never leaves your device, because there's no Pawza server. Track weight trends, get gentle reminders before anything is due, keep every photo searchable, and hand the vet a clean PDF of the whole history in one tap.
Key capabilities:
- AI vet-document scanning: Snap a vaccination certificate, lab result, or prescription and Pawza reads it on-device, then fills in the vaccine, date given, due date, medication, dose, and clinic. You review and confirm — the AI does the typing, you keep control. The original document is saved alongside the record.
- Vaccinations & medications, tracked properly: Log every vaccination — rabies, DHPP/DAPP (distemper, hepatitis, parvovirus), Bordetella, leptospirosis, parainfluenza and Lyme for dogs; FVRCP and FeLV for cats — with its given and due dates, and track medication courses, deworming, and flea/tick treatments with dose, schedule, and start/end dates. Pawza knows what's active, what's overdue, and what's coming up — across every pet.
- Reminders that respect your attention: Local notifications for shots, refills, deworming, flea/tick treatments, and checkups — scheduled ahead of the due date. One gentle nudge per item, on time. No account, no push server, no daily nagging.
- Weight tracking with trend charts: Record weight over time and see it as a clean Swift Charts trend line. Spotting a slow gain or loss early is often the difference between a quick fix and a vet bill — Pawza makes the trend obvious at a glance.
- A complete, searchable health record: Diagnoses, lab results, prescriptions, vet visits, grooming, and free-text notes — every part of your pet's medical story in one timeline, per pet, ready when you need it. Keep the practical details alongside it too: microchip number, pet insurance policy, and the travel and pet-passport records you need for boarding, daycare, or crossing a border.
- Searchable photo gallery: Keep every photo of your pet in one place, tagged and searchable — not lost in a camera roll of thousands. Pro removes the gallery limit so the whole album lives with the records.
- One-tap vet-visit PDF: Pawza Pro turns a pet's full history into a clean, printable PDF — vaccinations, medications, weight, visits, and notes — to hand the vet, email ahead, or keep for boarding, travel, or a new clinic.
- Private & on-device, with optional iCloud sync: Records are stored locally with SwiftData; scanning and AI extraction run on-device. Turn on iCloud and your data syncs across your own devices through your Apple ID — Lagerland Apps never sees or stores it. Compatible with Advanced Data Protection.
Best for: You have a dog, cat, or any companion and want their whole medical history in one place instead of a drawer of paper; You juggle vaccinations, medications, and checkups across one or more pets and keep losing track of what's due; You want to stop retyping vet paperwork — snap it and let the app file it; You care about privacy and don't want your pet's health data sold, tracked, or parked on someone else's server; You want to walk into any vet visit with the full history ready as a PDF.
Not the right fit for: You want a social network for pets, public profiles, or a feed; You're looking for telehealth or a way to message a vet inside the app; You want a shopping app for pet food, toys, or insurance quotes; You only ever need a single reminder and don't care about records at all.

About Pawza
What Pawza is, in plain words.
Pawza is a private pet health record keeper for iPhone and iPad that keeps every pet’s medical life in one place — vaccinations, medications, weight, vet visits, notes, and photos — and removes the most tedious part of doing so. Its defining feature is AI document scanning: photograph any vet document — a vaccination certificate, a lab result, a prescription label, a discharge note — and Pawza reads it on-device and fills in the structured records for you. Text is extracted with Apple’s Vision OCR, and on devices with Apple Intelligence (iOS 26 and later) an on-device model turns that text into fields like vaccine name, date given, due date, medication, dose, and clinic; on earlier devices Pawza falls back to OCR-assisted entry. Either way the processing is local — documents are never uploaded to a Pawza server, because Pawza has no server. You always review and confirm before anything is written to your records. Around that, Pawza tracks vaccinations and medication courses with proper given/due dates, schedules gentle local reminders before each shot, refill, deworming, flea/tick treatment, or checkup is due, charts weight trends with Swift Charts so a slow gain or loss is obvious early, keeps a searchable photo gallery, and — with Pawza Pro — exports a pet’s entire history as a clean, printable vet-visit PDF in one tap. Pawza is free for one pet with full records, reminders, and weight tracking and no account required; Pawza Pro unlocks unlimited pets and scans, AI summaries for every record, the unlimited photo gallery, and the vet PDF for $2.99/month or $19.99/year (each with a 7-day free trial) or $39.99 once as a Lifetime purchase that includes Family Sharing for up to five people. Privacy is structural rather than promised: there is no Pawza account and no Pawza server, records live on-device in Apple’s SwiftData, optional sync uses your own private iCloud database through your Apple ID and is compatible with Advanced Data Protection, and there are no ads, no analytics SDKs, and no tracking. Pawza is a universal app — one purchase runs on both iPhone and iPad with an adaptive iPad layout — and requires iOS 17.6 or later.

Capabilities
What you can do
How it works
The method behind every insight.
Scanning is the part of Pawza that does the work. Here's exactly what happens between photographing a vet document and your records being filled in — and where that processing happens.
-
01
You snap the document
Point the camera at a vaccination certificate, lab result, prescription label, or discharge note — or pick an existing photo or PDF. Pawza captures it and attaches the original to the pet's file so you always keep the source.
-
02
Text is read on your device
Pawza extracts the text using Apple's on-device Vision OCR. The image never leaves your iPhone or iPad for this step — there is no upload to a Pawza server, because Pawza has no server.
-
03
AI structures it into records
On devices with Apple Intelligence (iOS 26+), Pawza's on-device model turns the raw text into structured fields — vaccine name, date given, due date, medication, dose, vet, and clinic. On earlier devices it falls back to OCR-assisted entry. Either way, the extraction runs locally; documents are never sent to an external service.
-
04
You review before anything is saved
Pawza shows you what it found and lets you correct or confirm each field. Nothing is written to your records until you approve it — the AI fills the form, you stay in control.
-
05
Reminders schedule themselves
When a record has a due date — a booster, a refill, an annual checkup — Pawza offers to set a local notification ahead of time. One gentle nudge before it's due, never a daily nag.
-
06
The whole history exports as a PDF
When it's time for a vet visit, Pawza Pro turns the pet's complete history — vaccinations, medications, weight, visits, and notes — into a clean, printable PDF you can hand over, email, or save. No re-typing, no forgotten details.
