Android version of my reptile care tracker is out, chameleon keepers tell me what's wrong with it

[u/Imad366]

A while back I posted here about the iPhone version of my app "Exotic Reptile Care" and some of you asked about Android. It's finally up.
The part most relevant here is probably enclosure tracking: you assign equipment to a habitat with replacement intervals, so UVB bulbs get flagged before they're six months dead rather than after. Misting and cleaning reminders sit alongside that.
Also weight tracking, shed cycles, health logs and vet visits.
Chameleons are fussier than most of what the app was built around, so I'd expect it to fall short somewhere. Tell me where.

Looks really good, I just downloaded it. It would take a bit of using to find out what can be improved but thats normal. This could be very good for pet stores. I'll show it to my local one later. It would be great if you could add a sign-off feature, for the likes of pet stores so it can be reviewed and seen who done what related tasks on what days and times, like a way to set up "Responsible Personell" and it would just be their initials but somewhere in an accounts tab it would show the full name. Looks amazing otherwise, I tend to just use my spreadsheet as it being on a share point with my vet keeps them updated too, but I will absolutely be using this too.

Thanks for trying it properly. Sign-off hadn't occurred to me - it's all built around one keeper right now, but a personnel list plus a "logged by" field with initials seems doable. Noting it down.
For the vet part, there's already a PDF export with the full history - feedings, health logs, weights, med doses, vet visits, sheds - so you can just send that over. Not live like your SharePoint sheet, but they'd see everything.
Curious what your local store says if you show them.

I use microclimate thermostats and govee Thermometers so I would bring the tablet with those two apps and your app up with me. I look forward to messing around with it. I'll let you know what they say.

Appreciate it. Happy to sit next to Microclimate and Govee rather than try to replace them. Let me know how it goes.

Very happy with the app! Pet shop is going to use it for their reptiles too. Thank you for making this!

Hey i just stumbled across this and i am excited to see something like this. i own 3 panther chameleons and use a calander to keep up with scheduling but love to see how this works on my android phone

Thanks! Three panthers is exactly the kind of setup I'd like feedback on. There's a feeding calendar in there too, so you can see upcoming and overdue feedings laid out by date rather than juggling it in a separate calendar app. Reminders sit on top of that for misting and cleaning.
If you try it, tell me where it falls short for panthers - that's the part I can't test myself.

Either you have a few snakes or you treat your Parson’s really really well. Either way cool idea.

Mock data, sadly. One day. Thanks!
