Read the growth chart
Your data points are blue. The breed-specific projection is the green line. The shaded band is the healthy range. Above or below the band for a long time = bring it up at the next vet visit.

Check the status pill
Top right of the chart: 'On track', 'Below range', or 'Above range'. The pill is plain English; the chart is the raw data.

If something’s off
- Empty chart? You need at least 2 weight entries to draw a line. Add an older birth-weight if you have it.
- Curve looks wrong for your breed? Tap the breed name above the chart to change it — for mixed breeds, pick the dominant breed.
