Easily the most revolutionary feature of Crumb is the Snout ID scan.
00:03
This process uses a basic smartphone to create a biometric identification of your pet's snout that's as unique as a human fingerprint.
00:10
These scans can be used by vets to help identify your pet, even if their Crumb tag falls off, and their microchip fails.
00:17
Setting up a SnoutID scan is quick, and simple.
00:20
Let's take a look at how to do this in the Crumb app.
00:22
First, though, you want to ensure that you're in a well lit environment.
00:25
We recommend going outside in the sun, if possible.
00:27
If you have multiple pets, you're going to be scanning them one at a time.
00:31
From the home page, navigate to the pet whose snout you are ready to scan.
00:35
From here, you can click on the button under their picture that says 'SnoutID Not Added'.
00:39
Or you can just click the button at the very bottom of the homepage that says SnoutID .
00:43
Then you're going to click the button that says Create SnoutID on the next page.
00:46
Once the scanner opens, point the camera at your pet's face and try your best to keep it aimed at them.
00:51
If the image is blurry, try tapping on the screen to focus it.
00:54
if you have one of those pets that won't stay still for long, we recommend using a treat or a toy to keep their attention.
01:00
If your pet really won't focus on the camera, you might want to try this later while they're napping in a well lit environment.
01:06
If you click on the little music icon, you can select from a few different sound effects that'll help get your pet's attention.
01:11
If your pet happens to be completely still, you may actually need to rotate the camera around their head a little bit to get different angles of their snout.
01:17
If your first or even second attempt fails, don't worry and be patient.
01:21
You might have to just come back and try this again later.
01:23
You should be able to get a scan after a few tries, though.
01:26
If you're still unsuccessful, just contact customer support and we'll help you to like start over fresh.
01:31
After you get a successful scan, your pet's SnoutID will be stored in the app, and will forever be usable by participating vets if they scan your pet's snout.
01:38
Have fun and good luck getting a scan!
