MikaRipple: Pet Breathing Rate

Point your camera at your sleeping pet to count breaths automatically. Manual counting included. Share records with your family, and make vet-ready summaries anytime.

MikaRipple records your pet's resting and sleeping respiratory rate.

Breathing rate is one of the key vital signs for keeping an eye on your pet's day-to-day condition. With MikaRipple, just point your camera at your sleeping pet — the app analyzes the subtle movement of the chest and belly in real time and counts breaths automatically.

■ Features

• Automatic camera measurement Point the camera at your sleeping pet's chest and belly. The image is analyzed in real time on your device and is never saved as video. Zoom and light support let you measure from a distance.

• Manual counting Tap along with each breath while watching the screen. A reliable fallback whenever camera measurement is difficult.

• Correct with your own count If the automatic result differs from what you observed, correct it on the spot. If a measurement fails, record the count you observed instead.

• Multiple pets Per-pet profiles (photo, birthday, theme color) and per-pet alert thresholds.

• History and trends Browse and edit past records, and spot days above your threshold at a glance. True 60-second measurements are clearly distinguished from 30-second extrapolated values.

• Share with your family Just show a QR code and the same records appear on your family's iPhone. Whoever takes the measurement, both sides stay up to date — no more "did you already measure today?" No account needed; it travels through your own iCloud, and you can stop sharing at any time.

• Vet-ready summary Generate a shareable, print-friendly PDF report (A4 landscape) summarizing recent records — handy at the clinic.

• English / Japanese

■ Privacy first No account. No analytics, ads, or tracking. Your data is stored on your device and is never sent to the developer's servers. Only when you start Sharing with Family does it reach your family's devices — through your own iCloud, and the developer cannot see its contents.

■ Important This app is not a medical device and is not intended to diagnose, treat, or prevent any disease. Always consult your veterinarian about breathing-rate guidelines and your pet's health.
