Softonic review

Free cat care app

Tably is a mobile lifestyle app developed by Sylvester.ai. This free-to-download app allows users to check on their cat's well-being by snapping their pictures. With the app, you can tell whether your furry friend is in pain or not.

Tably detects distress by checking its feline grimace scale. Using its AI technology, it looks at your cat's ear and head position, eye-narrowing, muzzle tension, and whisker change to monitor its well-being. However, while it sounds promising, its performance says otherwise. The app often fails to register your cat's face, let alone any sign of distress it is feeling.

What is Tably?

Cats are known to be notoriously difficult to assess for any form of pain or discomfort. Most of the time, you won't know if your furry baby is feeling any pain unless you visit the vet. Tably is an app that aims to help you monitor your cat's well-being. It leverages artificial intelligence and machine learning to tell the mood of your pet.

The app only requires pet owners to take a picture of their cats. It will then assess the image for certain body language metrics to predict if it is in pain. As noted, the app uses the Feline Grimace Scale (FGS), a scientifically validated toolkit for pain assessment. It monitors five body language markers—ear and head position, eye-narrowing, muzzle tension, and whisker change—to assess any physical discomfort in your pet.

However, while the app is handy, pet owners should not rely on it too much. As it is, the app is more of a camera tool rather than a cat monitor. Most of the time, it does not register your cat's face, even though you've snapped the picture in a well-lit environment. By failing to recognize your pet's image, it cannot provide an accurate assessment

Is the app good?

Based on its description, Tably is a must-have for every cat owner. With it, you can monitor your cat's well-being by snapping its picture. However, in its current state, the app is not something reliable. It often fails to recognize your pet's face, thereby failing to predict if it is in pain or not. Overall, a regular visit to the vet is still your best bet.
