Overview

Pawtal is a cloud application that runs in your web browser. There is nothing to install on most devices.

Who can use this

All users.

Where to find it

This is setup information — no in-app route.

How it works

Pawtal runs entirely in your browser and syncs in real time across every device you're signed in on.

Desktop and laptop

  • Operating system: macOS 12 or newer, Windows 10 or newer.
  • Browser: latest Chrome, Edge, Firefox, or Safari.
  • Screen: 1280×720 or larger (1440×900+ recommended for clinical workflows).
  • Connection: stable broadband (3 Mbps+ down, 1 Mbps+ up).

Tablet

  • iPad running iPadOS 16 or newer, Android tablets running Chrome.
  • Recommended for Whiteboard, Treatment Sheets, and Checklists at the treatment bench.

Phone

  • iOS 16+ Safari or Android Chrome (latest two major versions).
  • Best for Punch Clock, Schedule, Culture, Notifications, and quick lookups.

Step-by-step

  1. Update your browser

    Use the latest stable version. Older versions may render Pawtal incorrectly.

  2. Allow notifications (optional)

    When your browser asks about push notifications, click Allow if you want Pawtal to alert you to schedule changes or safety events.

  3. Enable camera and mic (optional)

    Only required for features that capture photos, scan barcodes, or record video.

Tips

  • If Pawtal feels slow, a hard reload (⌘⇧R or Ctrl+Shift+R) clears stale assets.
  • On shared workstations, sign out at the end of every shift — never rely on "remember me".

FAQ

Does Pawtal work offline?

Limited functions (viewing cached pages) work briefly offline, but all writes require a connection.

Is there a native mobile app?

Not yet. The web app is installable as a PWA — use your browser's "Add to Home Screen" option.
