About Pawcast: Your Dog's Guide

Pawcast is the breed-aware walk-safety forecast for your dog. We check today's air temperature, pavement temperature, UV index, humidity, and air quality against your dog's specific breed profile — then tell you when it's actually safe to walk. Built for 350+ breeds, including mixed-breeds. NEW IN 1.1 — GPS WALK ROUTES (PRO) Every walk now records your route on an Apple Maps view, colored by the pavement temperature it crossed. See where you went, how far, your pace, and which stretches of asphalt were too hot for your dog's paws. Tap any saved walk to open the Walk Recap: route map, distance, pace, elevation, walk score, and a one-tap share to send to friends or family. BREED-AWARE SAFETY Pawcast knows the difference between a Husky and a French Bulldog. Flat-faced breeds get earlier heat warnings. Thick-coated breeds get separate cold and heat thresholds. Mixed-breeds blend two profiles for the most cautious safe answer. 350+ breeds, all backed by veterinary research. PAVEMENT TEMPERATURE — THE NUMBER VETS WORRY ABOUT On an 80°F sunny day, asphalt can hit 130°F+. That's hot enough to burn paw pads in seconds. Pawcast estimates pavement temperature from air temp, UV, and cloud cover — so you can spot the danger before you walk into it. Tap the pavement card on Home for the full breakdown. SMART WALK WINDOWS Pawcast surfaces the safest hours to walk in the next 48 hours, weighted by your dog's breed sensitivity. Plus daily walk reminders, evening "don't forget to walk" nudges, and heat/air-quality alerts when conditions cross into the caution zone.

What’s new

Version 1.1.0 · Updated June 17, 2026

Pawcast 1.1 — See where your dog actually walks GPS Walk Routes are here. Every walk is now recorded as a beautiful map of where you went together — colored by pavement temperature so you can see at a glance which streets were too hot for paws. What's new: • GPS Walk Routes (Pro) — Pawcast records your walking route on an Apple Maps view, in real time, even when your phone is locked in your pocket. • Heat-overlay route — your route is color-coded by the pavement temperature it crossed. Green is safe, amber is caution, red means paw burns in seconds. • Walk Recap — tap any saved walk to see the route map, distance, pace, elevation, end-of-walk weather, and walk score for your dog's breed. • Share a walk — one tap sends the recap to iMessage, Stories, or anywhere else. • Live tracking map — watch your route grow under the timer as you walk. • Background tracking — record routes hands-free with your phone in your pocket. Battery-optimized. This is the biggest update Pawcast has shipped. Every walk is now a story you can revisit. To get GPS routes: open Settings → Pawcast → Location and choose "Always" the first time you start a walk. Questions or breed requests? Settings → Send Feedback. Happy walking.
