Last updated
Whistle splits sensing and viewing. The tracker records activity and escapes to your account over network. The phone shows timelines, health trends, and zones. Local storage is login plus cache.
That split keeps moves simple. Sign in and pets return with history for the plan window. Exact cache names vary by release, so skip folder hunts. Keep the tracker charged during swaps. Gaps from a dead battery are hardware gaps, not phone gaps, and no restore can fill them later. Check the in app storage readout when sizes look wrong on different releases.
Where Whistle Pet stores this, by platform
/sdcard/Android/data/com.whistle.app
History follows your Whistle account and plan. Phone holds login and cache. Export vet reports from history for permanent records.
On My iPhone/Whistle (settings only, data in cloud)
Pets live in the Whistle container plus cloud. Sign in to restore timelines. Phone reinstall never touches tracker or cloud history.
Frequently asked questions
How do I move Whistle to a new phone?
Pets, plans, and history follow your Whistle account. Sign in on the new phone with the same login. The tracker syncs on dock and WiFi. Check timeline dates before wiping the old phone, since a lookalike second account shows empty.
Does Whistle back up activity automatically?
Yes, in the cloud account for the covered window. The phone holds login and cache. Activity streaks rebuild after sign in. Export vet reports from history for permanent files, since app reinstalls do not export on their own.
