HOW QR CODE TAG WORKS FOR PET OWNER:

In the event one loses a pet, the person who finds the lost pet scans the QR tag and will see owner contact info you've provided, they'll be able to contact you in order to return your missing pet. You will be receiving an INSTANT EMAIL ALERT of the scanned location, you await on standby to hear of your lost pet and go toward the scanned location. At same time you want to make sure your profile contact information is up to date. In some cases, finders also contact Pet Dwelling Support for help. The Pet Dwelling platform has helped thousands of lost pets reunite with their owners in the last ten years.

HOW TO UPDATE YOUR SCAN LOCATION:


Once you point your phone’s camera at the QR code, you should see a pop-up notification prompt to go to the website of the QR code. Tap on it to open the link to your pet's profile and Allow Sharing Location when prompted. if you don't have your location service on, it might result in random location. We suggest you always have your location service on when you are testing your scanned location. You can do the following to share your scanned location.

For iOS:

1. Turn on your "Location Service", "Share My Location".
2. Select "While Using the App" in ALLOW LOCATION ACCESS for your default browser(Safari, Chrome or Firefox), Enable your "Precise Location".
3. "Share your Location" with Google Maps.

For Android:

1. Turn on “Location” on your phone: Setting > Location > On.
2. Enable “Location Services” for improved accuracy: Setting > Location > Location services > enable all accuracy options

Starting with iOS 11, the Camera app can also scan QR codes, and, in our opinion, it provides the most inaccurate location due to the privacy laws.

If the location function doesn’t work on your phone's Camera app, then you can download one of these QR code scanning apps.
Android app: Kaspersky QR Scanner
IOS app: QR Code Reader & QR Scanner (by MixerBox)
Android & iOS: NeoReader QR & Barcode Scanner. QR Code Reader ϟ/QR Reader for Android (by Tap media)
