Three minutes of setting up, and then feeding time takes one tap. Here is what we will do together.
Which bowl did you top up
Which food
How many scoops
When it happened
Topping up marks no cat as fed. Dry food is always out, so this only moves the weight.
Tap one to change when it happened, how much it was, or to remove it.
Counted from top ups and any feeds logged with a dry food. A rough guide: what went into the bowl, not what went into the cats.
Which bowl did you top up
Fill it right up once, pour it into a measuring jug, and that is your number for good.
How much went in
When it happened
Tap one to change when it happened, how much went in, or to remove it.
A rough guide, not a measurement: evaporation and splashing are invisible, so treat the trend as the truth, not the number.
Who was sick
What day
When, roughly
What was in it
Tap as many as fit. Leave them all off if you did not see it.
Was it after a feed
Anything to add
Tap one to change it or to remove it.
The same email holds a code. Typing it here signs you in on this device without leaving the app, which is the way to sign in inside the installed app on an iPhone.
For people who already have access. The link only works if your address has been approved.

If you have already asked, sit tight. You will get an email when you are let in.

You, and anybody who shares your list with you. They see your cats and your foods. Nobody else on this screen can.
People the app will let sign in, each with their own list of cats. They cannot see yours. Taking somebody off does not touch their cats or their history, it just stops the app letting them in next time.
Two steps. Their address goes on the list of people allowed in, then you send them the link. Without the first step the link is no use to them: they can put in their email, but the app will tell them they are waiting to be let in. They get their own list of cats and cannot see yours.
Ask anything about what is in your list and it works the answer out from your own records. Your cats, foods, feeds, water and top ups are sent for the question to be answered, and nothing is kept afterwards.

How much did they eat
Counted from top ups and any feeds logged with this food. A rough guide: what went into the bowl, not what went into the cats.
What kind of food
What one of these is
So the cupboard can say how many pouches, and two foods can be compared by weight rather than by the price on the shelf.
Leave this at 1 if you buy them singly. Set it to 12 for a box of twelve pouches, and the app will work out what one pouch costs whenever you log the price of a whole box.
This food warns when that many or fewer are left.
Multipacks this comes in
How many of this food are in each box. 0 means it is not in that box.
A guess is fine. Starting part way through a bag is normal, and you can correct it any time from the food's own screen.
Weigh your scoop once and never again. Every top up takes this off what is left.
Tick this if it is always there. Topping the bowl up will not mark a cat as fed.
What each cat thinks
First price (optional)
Tap a cat to change their name or photo, or to remove them.
The walk through from the first time the app was opened. It fits itself to your account: it never asks you to add cats you already have, and it only shows what your access can actually do.
Short reads on the parts the walk through does not cover. Nothing here changes anything: it only says where things live and what they do.
Feeding
The cupboard
People
The app
Group brands and sub brands here. For example; Purina, Purina One and Purina Pro Plan can all be grouped together as one brand.
A box that holds more than one of your foods. Buying it adds them all in one go and works out what each one really cost. The box is not a food: it only ever appears as a way to buy, on the foods you put inside it.
Which brand
What is inside
Catisfied uses these to tell you whether a cat has had their current meal, rather than just whether they ate at some point today.
The feed screen starts here, so most feeds are one tap.
When a cat leaves food and you answer “Another cat had it,” this is the amount of leftovers it needs to reach before it counts as a feed for the cat that ate it. Anything under this threshold won’t count as a feed.
What happens to a food in the feed list once the cupboard says none left. The cupboard itself always keeps showing it.
The last thirty, newest first. Removing one asks what should happen to the food.
Every change to a cupboard count and what caused it, newest first. Kept on this phone only, never sent to your account and not in your backup. If a count ever looks wrong, copy this and send it over.
Yours alone. Everyone sharing a list picks their own.
Your list is saved to your account, so it comes back on a new phone. An export is your own copy of it, kept as a file, for the day you cannot get into the account itself.
Storage: checking
The app updates itself the next time it loads. This checks now, and loads the new one if there is one.
