PawWalk: Dog Walk Heat Check

Summer heat is here. Check the pavement before every walk, see safe walk windows for today and tomorrow, and keep the heat level on your Lock Screen while you're out.

Hot pavement burns paws. On a sunny 90°F day, asphalt can soar past 140°F — hot enough to burn your dog's paw pads in under a minute. Air temperature alone won't warn you.

PawWalk estimates the actual road-surface temperature under your dog's paws and answers the only question that matters, at a glance, on a clear 5-level scale: Good to go, Mostly fine, Caution, Danger, or Do not walk.

PLAN THE PERFECT WALK A 48-hour timeline for today and tomorrow highlights the safe walk windows, so you know exactly when to head out — early morning, after sunset, whenever the pavement has cooled down.

WALK WITH CONFIDENCE Start a walk and a Live Activity keeps the elapsed time and current heat level right on your Lock Screen. No unlocking your phone mid-walk.

TUNED TO YOUR DOG Small dogs walk closer to the hot ground and heat up faster. Tell PawWalk your dog's size and the rating adjusts — stricter for small breeds, standard for large ones.

SIMPLE AND HONEST One-time purchase. No ads, no subscriptions, no account. Just open the app and know.

Note: Surface temperatures are estimates based on weather data and surface modeling. Always test the pavement with the back of your hand for 7 seconds and use your own judgment — your dog is counting on you.
