Read full description

A little fish. A little world. A new friend to care for every day. Meet Little Splashy, your own interactive virtual fish who brings a charming aquarium into the world around you using augmented reality. Place Splashy's fishbowl on a table, floor, desk, or anywhere you like, then watch your new companion swim, explore, react, and play right in your space. CARE FOR YOUR FISH Little Splashy is more than something to watch. Visit your fish, feed it, interact with it, and make caring for Splashy part of your day. Your attention helps your little companion grow — thirty days of good care raise a baby fish into a fully grown one — and a gentle reminder keeps you from missing a day. CREATE A TINY UNDERWATER WORLD Make the aquarium your own with decorations and objects that transform Splashy's home. Arrange the bowl, experiment with different looks, and create an underwater space that feels uniquely yours. WATCH SPLASHY COME TO LIFE Splashy swims and explores the aquarium with a personality all its own. Tap, interact, play, and discover the little reactions that make your virtual fish feel like a companion rather than just an animation. BRING SPLASHY INTO YOUR WORLD Augmented reality makes the aquarium feel like it is really there. Place it beside you while you work, give Splashy a spot in your room, or bring the bowl somewhere completely unexpected. Set a home spot and your bowl will be waiting right where you left it. Your world becomes Splashy's world too. CAPTURE THE MOMENT See a perfect Splashy moment? Capture photos and videos of your virtual aquarium inside the real world and save your favorite memories. Create funny scenes, relaxing aquarium moments, or the perfect shot of your tiny underwater friend. WHAT'S INSIDE - A 30-day journey from baby fish to fully grown - Feed, tap the glass, and play together — every visit counts - New fish, snails, plants, pebbles and decorations to collect - Potted plants for the table beside your bowl, watered day by day - Photo and video capture, saved to your library - A Home Screen and Lock Screen widget with your fish's progress - The bowl settles in for the night when you do - Play in AR, or on a clean white stage when you would rather not scan a room A CALM LITTLE PLACE TO VISIT There are no complicated rules to learn. Just visit Splashy, care for your fish, personalize the aquarium, and enjoy a small interactive world that is always waiting for you. Bring Little Splashy home and see where your new fish friend decides to swim next. Little Splashy is free to download. Optional in-app purchases unlock extra fish, snails, plants, and decorations.

Petwhile

Read full description

What do your pets get up to when you're not home? Now you can find out. Peek at the pet cam and catch them napping in odd places, chasing each other from room to room and staring very hard at a bird. Then walk in the door to the happiest hello of your day. Petwhile is a cozy pixel art world of cats and dogs with minds of their own. THE BEST PART OF YOUR DAY Come home and they come running. Tails up, hearts flying, and maybe a little gift left on the floor just for you. THEY NEVER SIT STILL Zoomies. Sunbathing. Knocking things off shelves. Your pets keep busy whether you're watching or not, and every time you come back there's a story of what you missed. WHO'S THAT AT THE WINDOW Cardinals on the sill. A raccoon in the yard. A shy stray who keeps coming back. Win their trust and they might just move in. MAKE IT YOURS • Adopt cats and dogs, each with a personality you uncover over time • Dress them up in hats, collars and scarves • Move from a city apartment to a cabin, a house and a big old barn • Fill your Field Guide with every visitor you spot • Fill your Scrapbook with every first • Toss treats, blow bubbles and roll a ball right from the camera • Keep an eye on them from your Home Screen with the Room Cam widget MADE FOR IPHONE DUO Open the phone and watch two cameras side by side. NO PRESSURE, EVER A few minutes a day is plenty. No streaks to lose. No guilt. Miss a day and your pets are just happy to see you. No ads. No account. Optional in-app purchases for kibble and item bundles.
