What they say

Great way to map and track all giraffes around Cambridge

I was a little sceptical about the £1.99 fee; I hope some goes to charity. The app does seem to work well to find the different giraffes around Cambridge, and tick them off with their unique codes. It also unlocks some rewards in the form of discounts from certain sponsors; the best seems to be a 50% discount at Banham Zoo. Recommended.

A well-designed app, and a great cause

This is a fantastic app, supporting a great cause. The Short Tail Trail is fantastic and fun way to spend some time and raise awareness and funds for the great work Keech do.

Short Tail Trail 2024

Great for a statto like me

Really enjoy these trail apps and especially this one as (full disclosure) I’m helping the charity put the trail on in Southampton and Cowes. I love the stats – most collected, most voted for, how far I’ve walked… and the gallery pics are awesome.

Light the South 2024

Adds an extra layer of fun to the trail!

My 11 year old loved ticking off each statue as she found them. Some of the statues have extra bits of info about them which she liked. A great way to keep track of the ones you find.

Great

Worked perfectly fine and is very helpful, it shows you the location of all Morphs on a map and all the details about them. It’s great if you are touring around and not sure of places names.
