The Mission of Wannavi

With the anticipated new features set to launch in August 2025, including a reviews function and the ability to save and share favorite locations, the app seeks to continue evolving to meet the needs of its users.

Origin Story of Wannavi

The inspiration behind "Wannavi" comes from the founder's personal experience living with her dog. Understanding the desire to always be with a beloved pet, she started researching dog-friendly spots, which naturally led to sharing her findings with other pet owners. Through social media interactions and offline meet-ups, she realized that the information shared could positively impact the lives of fellow pet lovers.

Encountering pet-related businesses during these gatherings further fueled her passion for connecting dog owners with valuable products and services. Thus, "Wannavi" aims to foster meaningful connections among pet owners, their dogs, and pet service providers.

Key Features of the Wannavi App

"Wannavi" is designed to create enjoyable and convenient outings with your dog. Here are its standout features:
1. Comprehensive Search Options: Users can filter locations based on various criteria such as proximity, keywords (place names, station names), and specific pet policies (e.g., indoor and outdoor seating, large dog-friendly spaces).
2. Extensive Listing of Pet-Friendly Spots: As of May 2025, it boasts approximately 4,000 registered spots across Japan, with plans to expand into lodging facilities, leisure venues, and dog runs.
3. Direct Access to Useful Resources: Users can easily navigate from Wannavi to platforms like Instagram, Tabelog, and business websites without the need for external searches.

Upcoming Features Set for August 2025

In response to user feedback, several exciting new features will be rolled out in August:

- Review Functionality: This will allow users to read and post firsthand experiences and ratings.
- Favorites Feature: Users can save preferred spots for easy retrieval and reference.
- List Creation and Sharing: Pet owners can organize favorite spots into themed lists and share them with friends or on social media.
