QR tag is not activated

If you come across a pet with a QR tag that is not activated, it means that the owner has not completed the registration of the tag in the Animal ID system. As a result, the pet’s information and the owner’s contact details are unavailable. We understand that you want to quickly reunite the pet with its owner, so please follow these steps: 1. Check for a Microchip 🏥🔎 - If you are unsure whether the pet is microchipped, take it to a veterinarian or a local vet center for scanning. - If the pet is microchipped, you can check the registration details here. 2. Contact Local Animal Services 🐾📞 - Report your finding to your local animal shelter or rescue service. - They can help organize the return of the pet to its owner. 3. Notify Animal ID Support 💬📷 - Please contact our support team and attach clear photos of the tag from both sides. - This will help us better understand the situation and provide you with further recommendations on what to do next. We truly appreciate your care for pet and your feedback, which helps us improve our system. If you have any questions or need further assistance, please don’t hesitate to contact our support team – we’re always here to help! ☀️💕

"My Pet Tracking" Feature

The "My Pet Tracking" feature in the app is based on data collected each time a QR Tag Animal ID is scanned. Important: This is not GPS and does not provide real-time tracking of your pet’s location. Instead, every time the QR tag is scanned, the system records the location and time of the scan. This offers several advantages: - **No Need for Charging: ** The QR tag does not require a battery, so it is always ready for use. 🔋🚫 - **No SIM Card Required: ** The tag does not use mobile connectivity, making it simple and cost-effective to operate. 📶❌ - **Low Operating Costs: ** There are no additional expenses associated with maintenance, unlike GPS devices. - **Scan History: ** Each time the QR tag is scanned, the location (if permitted by the scanner) and the time of the scan are recorded and stored in the app’s "Scan History" section. This allows you to review where and when your pet was scanned. How It Works: 1. **Scanning: ** When someone scans the QR tag using a smartphone, the system automatically reads the QR code, which contains a link to the pet’s online profile. 2. **Recording Information: ** After scanning, the system records the scan’s location (if available) and the time in the database. This history is stored in the app for later review. 3. **Displaying the Data: ** You can access the scan history to see the recorded locations and times, which helps quickly determine where your pet might have been found. Thus, the "My Pet Tracking" feature is a convenient and reliable method for gathering scan history data from your QR tag. Although it does not offer real-time tracking like GPS, it provides valuable information that can help you quickly locate your pet if it goes missing—all without the need for expensive and complex GPS devices.

QR Tag Activation

The **Animal ID QR Tag **is not just a stylish accessory for your pet—it’s a powerful identification tool that provides access to the pet’s online profile. However, without activation, it remains only a decorative item. To make the tag functional, you need to activate it using your smartphone. Here’s how: 1. **Activate the Tag Through the App: ** - Open the Pet Care App by Animal ID on your smartphone. 📱 - Go to the "My Pets" section and select the profile of the pet to which you want to add the tag. - Tap on the pet’s icon (or photo) in the top left corner, where you will find the "Activate QR Tag" button. - Use your smartphone’s camera to scan the QR code on the tag. Once scanned, the tag will be automatically added to your pet’s profile. 🔑📸 2. **Verify the Activation: ** - To ensure everything is working correctly, use a different smartphone to scan the QR tag. This will allow you to see if the online profile opens with the correct information, without the scanner recognizing you as the owner. 🔍✅ 3. **Adding an Additional Tag: ** - If your pet already has an activated tag and you want to add another, tap the "Activate QR Tag" button in the pets' profile and the plus sign in that section, follow the same process—scanning the new tag’s QR code. ➕📲 4. **In Case of an Error: ** - If you accidentally add a tag to the wrong profile or encounter any issues during activation, please contact our support team for assistance. ☎️💬 By activating your QR Tag, you turn it into a full-fledged tool that helps quickly locate your pet by providing instant access to the owner’s contact information and the pet’s public profile. This tag becomes a key means of communication in case your pet goes missing, ensuring its safety and your peace of mind.

Animal ID QR Tag

**Animal ID QR Tag ** is a modern tool for visual identification of your pet, significantly enhancing its safety and helping to quickly locate the animal if it gets lost. The tag works provided that the owner has registered it in the Animal ID system. Important: This is not GPS. The QR tag does not use satellite positioning—it operates by reading a QR code that contains a link to the pet’s online profile. Location details are displayed only if the person scanning the tag has allowed the transmission of their location data. How It Works: - **Scanning and Instant Notification: ** The user simply points their smartphone camera at the QR tag attached to the pet’s accessory. Once scanned, a link opens that leads to the pet’s online page, where the owner's contact details and pet information are publicly available. This enables the finder to immediately get in touch with the owner. If the owner is registered in the system, they receive an instant notification in the app (via email, push, and SMS for premium users) indicating that the tag has been scanned, along with the scan location if location data is shared. 🔔📍 - **Ease of Use: ** The tag can be scanned with any standard smartphone camera—no special scanners are required, making the process extremely convenient and accessible. 📸 - **Increased Chances of Reuniting with Your Pet: ** The pet’s data is stored in an international database integrated with search systems (such as AAHA, Petmaxx, and EuroPetNet). This greatly increases the likelihood that your pet will be found and returned to you. 🌐 - **Personalization and Additional Features: ** You also have the option to order a customized QR tag, on which you can add your pet’s photo, name, and phone number. This makes the tag not only functional but also a unique and visually appealing accessory that provides an extra layer of protection. 🎨📷 Thus, Animal ID QR Tag is a reliable and convenient solution that ensures effective identification and rapid communication with the owner, helping to locate your pet as quickly as possible while ensuring its safety and well-being.
