Pet Forever

Pet Forever puts a lifelike little 3D pet on the screens you already look at all day. It sleeps at night, plays at breakfast, stretches in the afternoon, and grooms itself before bed. Glance at your Lock Screen and there it is, doing its own thing. MAKE YOUR OWN Take four photos of your cat or dog. Pet Forever turns them into a character that looks like them and lives on every screen, just like the free pets. Each pet is one purchase. Making it takes about ten minutes, and you can close the app while you wait. PRESENT, NOT NEEDY Your pet lives on its own schedule. Feeding and playing are gifts you give, never debts it collects. No red meters. No guilt. EVERYWHERE YOUR EYES GO • Home Screen widgets in small, medium and large • Lock Screen widgets, including the inline one under the clock • StandBy on your nightstand • A Live Activity in the Dynamic Island • Give a snack straight from the widget, without opening the app MADE WITH CARE Three free pets to start. Ten activities each, from a morning yawn to a full-speed run. Every frame is lit like a figure on a desk at dusk, so the pet is the warmest thing on your screen. A LITTLE TO LOOK AFTER Feed, play, groom and rest. Earn coins, unlock scenes like Sunbeam and First Snow, and watch your pet grow from a kitten into a grown cat. Optional reminders arrive only when a need actually runs low, and they stay quiet at night. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account. No tracking. No ads. The free pets work fully offline. When you make your own pet, your photos are used only to build it and are deleted within 24 hours.

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: SUMO at none against Pet Forever's 1. On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
