Works today

Switch into recovery mode in one tap.

Activating lost mode switches your pet profile into a recovery-focused screen and surfaces the contact path a finder needs to reach you. You can prepare this state in the dashboard before your tag arrives so the moment is ready.

Prepared today, ready any day.

Lost mode is not something you set up in a panic. Build your pet profile, add emergency contacts, and review your visibility settings before the tag arrives. The moment lost mode is needed, the recovery screen is already prepared.

What changes for a finder.

When lost mode is on, the recovery screen leads with a banner. The finder sees that the pet is being looked for and the contact path you chose to share. The screen is built for one job: helping the person who found your pet reach you.

A closer look

One tap puts your tag in Lost Mode so anyone who scans it sees the alert and can help reunite you.

A finder can choose to share their own location; Driyu never tracks your pet.

What lost mode is and is not

We do not promise guaranteed recovery. We are not GPS; we do not track your pet location. We do not claim a nationwide alert network; we have a recovery profile that works. We do not claim a 24/7 recovery team; if we ever staff one, we will tell you exactly who they are.
