What's free, permanently
- One pet profile, fully featured
- Medication reminders and logging
- Resting respiratory rate tracking
- Weight and daily log entries
- The Carer's Pack, shareable as a PDF
None of this is a watered-down version. It's the same tracking, the same reminders, the same sharing, just scoped to a single pet with a recent history window rather than an unlimited one.
What Halo Plus actually adds
Plus exists for two specific situations: more than one pet, or wanting the full historical record rather than a recent window. It unlocks unlimited pet profiles and the complete history behind every chart, useful at a vet appointment eighteen months in, less useful in the first few weeks.
Who actually needs to upgrade
If you're managing more than one pet, or you're far enough into tracking a chronic condition that the full trend line matters more than the recent one, Plus solves a real problem. If neither applies yet, there's no reason to pay for something you won't use, and nothing in the app tries to talk you into it.
Why it works this way
The point of Halo was never to convert as many people as possible to a paid tier, it was to make sure anyone managing a pet's health has a real tool available, regardless of budget. Plus funds that without gatekeeping the basics behind it.
