Leave a Review nomi | a pet for your watch
Great concept but…
I really enjoy the app, but can you please add something to the app to accommodate disabilities? I am trying hard to keep my Nomi alive but it is hard doing so with normal parameters. For me, going for a 20 min walk is exhausting, yet it is not enough to keep Nomi alive. I like having the motivation to move, but can’t keep up with it.
Also, please make Nomi not consume energy while you are sleeping or on charge.
Thank youShow lessLizelle74
Waste of money
Won’t even download to my watch. Super disappointed. I wish I could get a refund 😡LetsGetMuddy

Hey there! Just to clarify, This is a standalone Apple Watch App (quite a new thing), so it doesn't need companion Phone app to work. For a smoother download experience, please download it directly from your watch's App Store. If you've downloaded it from your phone and can't see it on your watch, please follow these steps: - Go to the App Store on your Apple Watch - Scroll all the way to the bottom until you see Account. - Tap on Purchased and you will be able to download it from there! Thank you all for your support, it means the world to us!So cute and so worth the 1.99
I’ve literally had this little game on my watch for a day and I love it soooo much soo cutee and a wonderful way to keep you moving because you don’t want your little friend to die I just hope I don’t have any technical difficulties with it and he die then but so far so good will keep my review up to date too so you knowShow lessHornbeck_Taylor
Needs adaptation for night shift workers
Please can you allow nomi to be fed after midnight. I work shifts and struggle to keep it alive when I’m on nights as it won’t allow me to feed it due to sleeping. Maybe add an option for it to sleep when you tell it to, rather than assuming you won’t do any steps after midnight.paraamh

Hi there! Thank you and we appreciate the support! In your settings, you should see an option to change the time Nomi is awake. We built this feature just for people who work different hours. I hope this helps!Excellent Watch app!
Quick update: one thing I would love is if the hearts you earn saved up - right now, you have to remember to feed your Nomi when the heart ring is full, which can mean pausing in your workout. If you forget to do this, you could go through an entire workout and have burned enough calories for two or three hearts, but you still only get one.
This app is adorable, fun, and motivates me to stay active throughout the day. The Tamagotchi-like critter is so cute, and I hate seeing it sadface, so I want to stay active to be able to keep feeding it. When I first got the app the only way to get hearts to feed the critter was using steps, which was pretty difficult with the current ‘stay at home’ restrictions (even though I’ve been exercising daily, my step count is terrible). However, the developer was very understanding and responsive, and quickly released an update allowing you to use calories instead. I love the app and really the only thing I can think of to improve it at this point would be to make it actually possible to pet the critter. (If it’s happy, you can tap it and it does a little happy nudge type movement, but you can’t give it scritches.) I’m not sure how feasible this is for a cute little watch app (don’t know how hard it would be to make it that interactive or whether the watch can even support such a thing), but it would be cute. TL;DR, if you’re a sucker for cute critters to motivate you to exercise, GET THIS APP!Show lessPenemuel

This is brilliant feedback. We try to be as reactive as we can be and really do value your ideas. We're now also obsessing about more ways to interact with your Nomi! TL;DR, you're awesome. Thank you.Needs to have a catch for charging
Im only giving it a 4 because there needs to be some kind of “pause” for when the watch is charging. My pet keeps dying because i charge my watch only when it is needed. So if my watch dies in the middle of the day, it has to charge. Then by the time i put it back on, its bed time. I wake up and the thing is already starving. So i have to work really hard to gain hearts. And if i dont, it dies.Show less1111brooke
Cute
Great idea. Keeps you moving.
Would be cool to be able to interact or feed a friends nomi too.
Although my mini games aren’t working I love the idea to earn hearts for later!M.Smith10
I like it but it dies pretty easy.
I absolutely love this concept and it’s really cute. Unfortunately, I can only get the first evolution, if that, as I usually only wear my watch during the work week and then the Nomi dies during the weekend. So by Monday I have to start over. I know some people wear their watches every day but I’m not a fan of having a big ugly square on my arm all the time. :) so maybe in the future if Nomi can take a break, a nap, or visit/vacation during specific days, that would be lovely.Show lessKiwiAnn09

On day 8. So far I like it. It’s cute, I named mine lil mochi nomnom. I just wish it was more like the classic nano or tamagotchi, you literally can’t do anything with it. Just tap the heart once it’s full to feed it 5 or so times a day and wait 5 days to see it change. That’s it. Also seriously need to be able to set the bedtime and wake up time yourself, sometimes I go to bed at 9pm, sometimes 1am. Sometimes get up at 6, sometimes 8. It’s annoying that it’s strictly set for midnight-6. It’s just kinda lacking in my view but still cute so whatever lol I’ll keep it 🤷🏻♀️Show lessTeeGirl06
Fantastic Fitness based Tamagochi
This app is fantastic so far! I love tamagotchi/pet apps and there’s just not many options on the Apple Watch which really surprises me. A fitness based tamagotchi like app is genius. I agree with a lot of others though, having more interaction options with your “pet” to care for it would be a great addition! Personally I think 8 hours of sleep time would be nice too instead of only 6. Def will recommend this to friends and family with apple watches.Show lessitsjonduh
