Tap once when your puppy pees or poops. Pottaroo counts down to the next potty break, shows the daily rhythm and the clean days, and reminds you to take them out. No login, no paywall on logging.

Pottaroo is an Android app for potty training a puppy. The Today screen has six big buttons — pee outside, poop outside, accident, meal, water, and nap or crate — and one tap saves an entry with the current time; long-press a button to pick a different time, and an Undo appears right after each tap. Pottaroo looks at the gaps between pees and accidents in the last 7 days (ignoring gaps longer than 8 hours, like the night) and uses the median gap to estimate the next pee: "Next pee in 38 min, around 3:40 PM". Under it you see the last pee and last poop, then today's timeline, where you can tap any entry to change its time, type or note. The Stats screen shows a 24-hour rhythm ring with when pees, poops and accidents happen, a bar chart of outside trips versus accidents for 7 or 30 days, the typical time between pees, the typical time from a meal to a poop and potty trips per day. The History screen is a month calendar with a green dot on accident-free days and a red dot on days with an accident; tap a day to see it or add a trip you forgot to log. An optional potty reminder nudges you every 30 minutes to 4 hours after the last pee until the next one is logged, and stays quiet at night. A home screen widget has Pee, Poop and Accident buttons that log without opening the app. You can keep up to three dogs, share today's log as text and export everything as a CSV file. There is no login and the log stays on your phone. Pottaroo shows patterns from your own log; it is not veterinary advice.

FAQ
- How does Pottaroo know when my puppy needs to pee?
- It looks at the gaps between pees (and accidents) you logged in the last 7 days, skips long gaps like the night, and adds the typical gap to the last pee. It needs at least four logged pees in a day or two before it starts estimating.
- Is there a limit on how many potty trips I can log?
- No. Logging, stats, the widget, reminders and export have no limit and no paywall. The app is supported by ads.
- Can my partner see what I logged?
- Pottaroo has no account or sync, so each phone keeps its own log. Use Share today's log in Settings to send the day's summary to your partner or dog sitter.
- Can I add a potty trip I forgot to log?
- Yes. Open History, tap the day and use Add a trip for this day, or long-press a button on the Today screen to choose the time.
- Does the potty reminder ring at night?
- No. Reminders follow the quiet hours in Settings (23:00–08:00 by default), so you are not woken up.
- Does it track walks with GPS?
- No. Pottaroo does not use location. You log a potty trip with a tap; there are no maps or routes.
- Can I log more than one dog?
- Yes, up to three dogs. Switch between them with the name chips at the top.
- Is it veterinary advice?
- No. Pottaroo shows patterns from your own log. If your puppy suddenly pees much more or less often, talk to your vet.
Guides
Pottaroo is a record-keeping tool. Estimates such as the next pee and typical gaps are calculated from what you log and may not match your dog's actual needs. It is not veterinary advice.
