No. The FitBark GPS requires a subscription plan to function.

If you would like to pause your subscription, simply cancel your plan in our apps (disable auto renewal) and we won’t charge you until you are ready to start over again. There are no fees associated with keeping a plan dormant.

Okay, but why do I need a subscription to monitor health only?

It’s a choice we made, so we could keep hardware pricing at a reasonable level. If we allowed use without a subscription, we would have to price the hardware product at a much higher level for all users, which would make our platform less affordable.

If you are interested in monitoring your dog’s health without any monthly fees, the FitBark 2 is what you’re looking for!
