#2 Video zoom and seek

Our commitment to providing the best dog monitoring experience has led to several improvements to the video player in Activity log. Among these improvements is the addition of zoom and seek functionality, allowing you to go through videos in the Activity log with ease and precision.

The zoom and seek functionality makes it possible for you to view specific areas of interest and focus on important details that may have previously gone unnoticed. By offering greater control over your dog's monitoring experience, Barkio empowers you to provide the best possible care for your pet.
