How to make an app for a veterinary clinic

A vet's records are by pet, not by person: one owner may have two dogs and a cat, each with its own vaccinations and weight. An app keeps each pet's visits, the due dates the vet set for vaccination and deworming, and a reminder button for the owner.

Who uses the app

The vet and the assistant at the desk. On one phone the data can stay on it; if the vet and the assistant use separate phones, connect your own Supabase database with sign-in. Owners don't use the app; they get WhatsApp messages from the clinic.

The screens a veterinary clinic app needs

Today: Pets coming in today with their owner, the reason for the visit and a status
Owners: Search by owner name or phone; each owner's pets in one place
Pet record: Species, breed, age, weight by date, allergies noted by the vet, and every visit
Visit: Reason, weight, the vet's notes, medicines given or prescribed, vaccinations given and the next due dates the vet set
Due list: Pets with a vaccination, deworming or check-up the vet set for this week or overdue
Payments: Fees and medicines by day and month, and balances due

Features worth asking for

Several pets under one owner, each with its own record
Vaccination and deworming entries with the date given and the next date the vet chose
A WhatsApp button with the pet's name and its due date in the message
A pet's vaccination record as a PDF the owner can keep or show at a boarding or grooming place
Weight saved at each visit and listed by date
Home visits marked, with the address and a Google Maps button

Where the data lives

With the vet and the assistant on separate phones, connect your own Supabase database from the chat with sign-in. If owners pay for home visits online, connect your Razorpay account as well; the money goes to the clinic.

How to make it with AppCub, step by step

Decide what the app does. List the screens you need, for example: Today, Owners, Pet record, Visit, Due list.
Describe it to AppCub. Paste the request below, changed to your own business and details.
Check the plan. AppCub shows the screens and features it will build. Change them in the chat until they are right; seeing the plan is free.
Try it on your phone. The app runs live next to the chat. Scan the QR code to install it, and ask for changes.
Share it. Share it as a web link, an APK file, or publish it on Google Play from your own developer account.

Copy this request, change the details to match your veterinary clinic, and paste it into AppCub:

Make an app for my veterinary clinic, Negi Pet Clinic in Dehradun. My assistant and I use it on our phones with sign-in. Screens: today, owners, pet record, visit, due list and payments. An owner can have many pets. A pet has species, breed, date of birth, weight by date and allergies. A visit records reason, weight, my notes, medicines, vaccinations given and the next due dates I set. Show a due list for vaccinations, deworming and check-ups, with a WhatsApp reminder that names the pet. Make a vaccination record PDF and receipts. Mark home visits with a Google Maps button. Green and white colours.

Tips for a veterinary clinic app

Start with owners, pets and the due list; it is where reminders bring owners back on time.
Use the same vaccine names you write on the pet's card, so the PDF matches what owners already have.
Due dates in the app are what you decide for each pet; the app doesn't work out a schedule or give advice.
Owners' phone numbers and addresses are private; keep the data in your own account and use sign-in on shared phones.
Enter your last month's visits for a few pets to test the due list before going live.

Good to know

AppCub doesn't connect to X-ray, blood test or other veterinary machines, and it sends nothing by itself. Reminders go out when the desk taps the WhatsApp button.
AppCub builds Android apps. You can also share the app as a web link that opens on any phone; for the iPhone App Store, AppCub’s team can do it for you.

Questions

Can one owner have several pets in the app?

Yes. Ask for owners and pets as separate records, so each pet has its own visits and due dates under the same phone number.

Does the app decide when the next vaccination is due?

No. The vet sets the next date during the visit, and the app keeps it and shows it on the due list.

Can I give owners a vaccination record?

Yes. The app can make a PDF of a pet's vaccinations with dates, to send on WhatsApp or print.

Can I track a pet's weight over time?

Yes. Weight saved at each visit shows as a list by date on the pet's record.

Can the app send vaccination reminders by itself?

No. The due list shows which pets are due when the app is opened, and a button opens WhatsApp with a message naming the pet.

Can pet owners have their own login to see records?

It is possible with your own Supabase database and sign-in, but most clinics start with the staff app and send the vaccination PDF on WhatsApp.
