About WoofTrax version 6— released October 2022

Things to know – if you’re an existing WoofTrax user:

When updating from the previous version, all of your walks should show on the new version. Your data is stored on our servers, and we will make sure your account is updated to reflect all your past walks if any are missing. The walking paths / maps of your past 25 walks should be in History. The time, speed, and distance of all the walks taken with WoofTrax should also be listed in the History screen.

Past walks all count for your charity. WoofTrax will send appropriate donations to your charity based on your past walks. When updating from the previous version, your points that you earned on past walks are included in your total Charity Points on the new version. Previous walks in your history will show zero charity points, but those walks still counted for your charity. On the new version you will earn 10 charity points for each walk .25 mile or greater. Learn more about Charity Points here.

Because this was a significant update with new systems in place to allow WoofTrax to grow, some data may not have transferred from your previous account to your new app, we are working to fix this for affected users.

We are aware that for some users their dog’s name is showing as Lexi, and our development team is working on it now. If you took a walk with the previous version with no dog selected, the new version will show that you took that walk with Lexi (our virtual dog). If you previously took a walk with Cassie, it may show that you took a walk with Lexi.

If you’ve updated from the previous version, we are working on adding back in some familiar features, such as walking with no dogs selected.

Tap the Challenges tab, then tap the JOINED challenge button at the top to find your joined challenges.
