Dog Trainer: Whistle Guide

Train your dog with precise whistle tones, synthetic clickers, and step-by-step lessons. Customise frequencies, use attention sounds, and track progress with checklists.

Dog Trainer: Whistle Guide is a comprehensive iOS utility app designed to enhance your dog training experience with precise sound tools and guided lessons.

Key Features:

Dog Whistle Tone Generator: Produce continuous sine tones from 440 Hz up to approximately 45% of your device's sample rate, typically around 19–20 kHz. Choose from steady, pulse, or warble tone shapes, with preferences saved automatically. Use a one-shot attention sweep with a linear frequency chirp for recall or re-orientation drills. Adjust frequency with a slider featuring live hertz readout and optional fine-tune mode for precise control. Access one-tap presets for common training bands (4k, 8k, 12k, 16k, 18k Hz) clamped safely for your device. Save up to six user-defined named frequency presets. Control volume independently from system volume to maintain safe levels. Use play/stop toggle for continuous tone or press-and-hold for momentary bursts. Visual confirmation via a live activity meter shows output status. A session timer supports focused training blocks of 5, 10, 15, or 20 minutes, ending with soft clicks and haptic feedback when enabled. First-run volume and welfare reminders ensure safe use.

Training Clickers: Four synthetic click styles generated at runtime provide versatile markers for clicker training workflows. Play single clicks or macros with double or triple rapid markers for chained behaviours. Optional haptic feedback enhances marker signals.

Guided Lessons: Access fourteen offline step-by-step articles covering obedience, lead and outdoors, manners and safety, tricks and games, calm and crate, and safety topics. Each lesson includes goals, gear lists, numbered steps, trainer tips, and estimated durations. Swipe to favourite lessons for quick access. Use the searchable field to filter lessons by title, goal, or category. Track progress with tappable checklists for each step and view completion fractions. Reset checklists anytime. Share lessons as plain-text briefs with coaches or note apps.

Attention Sounds: Play five synthesised noise-and-tone hybrid bursts designed for attention, training games, and desensitisation drills. Sounds include quick yap, alert bark, playful burst, low ruff, and rapid yips. All sounds play at humane volumes with optional haptic feedback.

Settings and More: Manage volume and welfare acknowledgement reminders with toggles and buttons. Enable or disable training haptics and fine frequency slider defaults under Pro tools. View app version and access legal links for privacy policy and user agreement.

Persistence and User Preferences: The app saves your last whistle frequency, volume, tone mode, favourite lessons, volume acknowledgement status, training haptics preference, fine frequency slider setting, named frequency presets, and lesson step completion data securely.

How It Works: Use the whistle tone generator to emit precise frequencies tailored to your dog's hearing range. Combine with clicker markers to reinforce behaviours. Follow guided lessons to structure training sessions effectively. Use attention sounds to regain your dog's focus during training or daily activities.

Tips for Effective Training: Start with preset frequencies and adjust volume carefully to avoid discomfort. Use the session timer to maintain consistent training durations. Favouriting lessons helps build a personalised curriculum. Utilise checklists to track progress and share lesson plans with trainers or family.

Common Use Cases: Recall training, obedience commands, lead walking, manners reinforcement, crate training, trick teaching, calming exercises, and safety drills including emergency stop cues.

Privacy Notes: All data is stored locally on your device. No personal information is collected or shared. Legal documents are accessible within the app.
