### 4/5 — Lifetime Purchase not working for me

*2026-07-07, version 3.9.4*

I have had your app for a while. I have it on a Mac. When I click to buy something on Mac I get a pop up showing what I am buying and a button that says purchase. When I try to buy the lifetime purchase you have I get the pop up but no button. I can’t buy it. I was considering it since it was on sale. Is there something I can do to fix this or is there something you can do to fix this? Thank you.

### 4/5 — Love the animals!

*2026-05-11, version 3.9.0*

First, I love all the animals. They are cute walking around my screen. 
Secondly, when I first downloaded the app there was a snail that looked like the snail from SpongeBob. It would crawl around the edges of my screen. I don’t see it anymore. Please bring the snail back. I actually really love the snail. Pretty please? :)
Thirdly, only a little annoying. Sometimes the owl will fly across my screen when I am working on something and won’t stop. Just constantly flying diagonally across my screen for a while. 
Thank you for the cute, relaxing app.

### 2/5 — Update left me sad

*2026-04-10, version 3.8.0*

I have used this app for several years and previously would have given 5 stars, but after updating today I am left quite sad. I noticed a number of pets suddenly gone, including my favorite- the snails. I LOVED those snails. They accompanied me through a lot of work. It seems that when the app moved to a paid model (fair) they removed or made a lot of previously free pets paid only. I probably would have gotten a subscription if there was not the risk of losing one’s favorite pets out of the blue. I wish I could revert back. :(

### 5/5 — !

*2026-02-24, version 3.4.2*

I really like this 짱짱 추천

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2026-02-18, version 3.4.2*

The app is super awesome! I really like the pets - they are absolutely adorable and bring some life to my Mac. If anything then I’d like a few more cool cars - maybe an old 911.
A crazy feature would be if the cats could jump on the car and go for a ride. :D

### 5/5 — Really nice to watch

*2026-02-17, version 3.4.2*

Nice falling transitions and funny to watch.
Small feedback, the red font is not really nice to look at in dark mode, see about page e.g. Contributors, Privacy Policy etc…

### 5/5 — cool

*2026-02-09, version 3.4.1*

Re cool, pero las cabezas andan hacia atrás

Pretty fun for anti boring work

### 5/5 — Wow are they cute!

*2025-12-05, version 3.3.0*

It’s the most cute thing I’ve ever downloaded from the App Store. Having a couple of small animals on your screen and walking on your windows really makes my day better. I really like the owl that can also fly around the display.

### 4/5 — HI

*2025-11-25, version 3.2.0*

So cute, but, you need to add like a customising tool for the pet, it would be so cool

### 5/5 — Super!!!

*2025-11-10, version 3.1.0*

App semplicissima e molto utile per personalizzare il proprio schermo. Intuitiva, simpatica e originale, permette un sacco di funzioni anche nella modalità gratuita. Si merita di essere più popolare di così, ottimo lavoro! <3

### 5/5 — Super cute!

*2025-10-28, version 3.0.0*

I love this. The Shiba Inu is adorable, and a slime just walks around the top of you screen! I just like picking one of the pets! I love the way some of the pets sleep on the screen. Cuteness overload!

### 1/5 — I can even delete it on MacBook…

*2026-08-01, version 3.9.6*

Sigh…

### 1/5 — Bring back Klee ;-;

*2026-04-08, version 3.8.0*

Please bring back Klee, raided and keqing

### 1/5 — Your app has a versioning issue

*2025-11-29, version 3.2.0*

. The version number displayed inside the app is 3.0.2, but the version number shown in the App Store is 3.2. This inconsistency causes the app to be incorrectly marked as “upgrade available” when using mas-cli to manage updates. Please fix this version mismatch.

### 1/5 — Pets can’t go out of app

*2024-12-13, version 1.7.1*

The pets can’t even get out of the app, don’t get this

### 1/5 — Bad

*2024-06-08, version 1.5*

I expected that it can be used outside the app but no? Yeah what a waste of time installing.

### 1/5 — This game is a rip off

*2023-09-30, version 1.5*

Sorry for the misspelling i was doing it quickly

### 5/5 — Cool that I can create my own pet

*2026-07-20, version 3.9.5*

Hope I can create an even in future

### 5/5 — My little friends

*2026-07-02, version 3.9.4*

I love “Pets Therapy - Desktop Pets”!The animals are cute, funny, and active. I love how lively my desktop has become!

### 5/5 — Super enjoyable and user friendly!

*2026-07-01, version 3.9.4*

Absolutely adore these little desktop pets. Many lovely free options, and the pets’ movement is really soothing. Also love how they sit on top of open windows, and sometimes teleport around/eat/nap etc! Really easy to use, easily the best desktop pet app I have used, and I’ve tried a bunch. Thanks so much for the awesome app!

### 5/5 — One time purchase? Now I'm in!

*2026-06-16, version 3.9.3*

This is a great little toy. Little friends can walk and play on your desktop. It's a wonderful throwback with lots of animals to choose from and enjoy. I've had the free version for several months so now it's time to upgrade.

Even though it was a nominal fee, I can't stand subscription. Now that Pets has a one time fee, the full version is mine. I've been waiting for this and it's make me extremely happy. Bring out the giraffe!

Actually, you know what we need? The raccoon. The US Trash Panda. A little desktop miscreant that dives into metal trash cans and dumpsters. A mischievous devil that steals icons and thumb drives. A guy that eats candy and throws wrappers at the screen. 😄

### 5/5 — Mac OS 12.7 Moterey

*2026-05-31, version 3.9.2*

Works perfectly on Macbook Air 2017..

### 5/5 — Amazing app that makes using a computer more fun!

*2026-05-29, version 3.9.1*

I love my little desktop pets! They add a little whimsy to even the most boring of tasks. This app literally makes me regret buying a 14 inch laptop because I want my little guys to have more windows to roam on the top of!

### 5/5 — Great App! Love my pets

*2026-04-18, version 3.8.0*

Recently, the app got rid of some of the old pets and I was able to get some of my favorites back! The people were so nice helping me get them back and the pet adding was really easy to do. I’ve used the app for about 3 or 4 years now and it is super fun. Really recommend! Also follow them on discord!

### 5/5 — Good but one problem

*2026-04-18, version 3.8.0*

So great app overall but whenever a import a desktop mate file it can NEVER load it ahhhhhhh

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2026-03-28, version 3.6.0*
