About this app

The free MOTION app only works in combination with a Tractive MOTION activity tracking device which is available at http://shop.tractive.com/en/motion.

MOTION tracks your pet's activity 24/7 and tells you whether or not your pet needs to be more active. The movements are divided in three categories "lazy", "active" and "dynamic".

Several sensors provide information to you and your pet’s veterinarian. Aside from a motion detection sensor, MOTION also uses an accelerometer, a temperature sensor and a brightness sensor to monitor your pet's behavior and your pet’s ambient temperature and ambient light. So you'll soon understand the correlation between your pet’s activity and external influences.

You can set a daily goal of Pet Points, that are calculated by taking into account steps, movements, playtime and additional information provided by the sensors. The more your pet moves, the more Pet Point he gets.

Through an integrated high-resolution display you can easily see the collected Pet Points for the day and check the progress towards the daily goal.

The data is synced automatically and wirelessly to your smartphone, where the free MOTION app offers easily understandable statistics about your pet’s activity for every day, week and even the entire month. Motion not only shows you the activity data of your pet, you can also compare days, weeks or months so you can find out if there is a change in your pet’s activity.

You can manage multiple pets with MOTION devices in the app and the device wirelessly syncs its information to your smartphone. Tractive MOTION uses Bluetooth 4.0 to send its data to the smartphone. The app promotes healthy and active pets with achievements and shows the worldwide pet activity rank of your pet.

The waterproof MOTION device weighs only 7g and with a size of 15mm x 50mm x 9mm it can be used on cats, dogs and any other animal 2 kg and over. Tractive worked with vets to ensure the device does not harm the pet and is light enough so your pet won't even feel it is there. MOTION can collect activity information for over a week without being recharged.
