About

Choposo

Features
Read full description

A tiny creature that lives on your Lock Screen. Choposo is a pet-raising app that lives on your iPhone's Lock Screen and Dynamic Island. Every time you glance at your phone, a small creature is walking around. ■ Care for it right from the Lock Screen Feed and clean up without opening the app. On supported devices, it walks around inside the Dynamic Island. ■ The bed decides who hatches There are 52 beds. Which one you place determines what hatches from the egg. A donut bed, a tree stump, a seashell. ■ Food shapes how it grows The same creature grows differently depending on what it eats. Feed it the food tied to its bed, or stick to the basics — each lineage has three possible adults. ■ Five days, one lifetime Egg, juvenile, adult, then old age and a new egg. One generation takes about five days. Every creature you've said goodbye to stays in your album. ■ Visit your friends' nests Trade friend codes and drop by their room. Visiting exchanges a souvenir food. Your creature appears on their Lock Screen for one hour. ■ A world made of paper Every image is made from construction paper, crayon, and craft. 209 creatures, 52 beds, 100 pieces of furniture, 30 backgrounds. And one bed that only five people in the world will own.

About

Pixel Islet

Read full description

A tiny pixel pet moves into a cozy 3D room on your iPhone. Feed, play, rest, clean, and pet. The way you care decides which adult form it grows into. Raise it differently and you get a different result: a relaxing idle pet game where the goal is to complete the whole collection. ▼ Features 【Live together in a 3D room】 The room has real depth. Tap the floor and your pet walks over, pet it and it beams, and it lets you know when it is hungry. When the room gets messy, you can actually see the dust and stains, so you know when to clean. The light shifts from morning to noon, dusk, and night, and at bedtime your pet lies down in its bed and sleeps. 【Grown-ups relax on a 3D island】 Once a pet reaches its adult form, you can let it live on the island. Spin the island with a swipe and watch your friends wander between the trees and the pond. At night, everyone sleeps. 【Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets】 Put the pet you're raising on your Lock Screen or a small widget to see its mood and progress at a glance. A wide widget shows your island friends (up to 8). 【They also live in the Dynamic Island (supported models)】 On supported iPhones, your pet stays in the Dynamic Island at the top of the screen and shows what it is up to at a glance: the time left on an outing, a souvenir waiting for you, napping, or feeling hungry. Even with the app closed, it switches on its own when your pet comes home or goes to bed. 【Your app icon becomes your pet】 Choose "Current pet" in Settings and the app icon on your Home Screen becomes the pet you are raising right now. When it evolves, the icon changes too. 【Evolution shaped by your care】 Forest, flame, water, star... the way you care decides which adult form a child grows into. The same species can end up looking completely different. 17 species plus one secret, and 84 forms to complete the collection. In the collection you can spin each 3D figure with your finger, read every pet's little story, and see its postcards. 【Bonds and the island】 Even after growing up, petting keeps raising the bond. Let a favorite live on the island and it brings you coins every day according to its bond level: a warm little economy. 【Minigames】 - Fruit Catch: catch falling fruit on your pet's head in the 3D room (while your pet is out or asleep, an island friend catches in its place) - Expedition: pick 2 to 4 island friends for an auto battle you watch unfold (3D) - Memory Match: a card-matching game with pets from your collection (unlocks at 4 registered forms) 【Outings and travel postcards】 Send your pet on an outing and it comes back later with coins, XP, and a souvenir. While it is out, it is not in the room, and it always comes home by bedtime. There are 20 souvenirs to collect. Each trip also brings a postcard of your pet, sometimes with island friends, at one of 12 places, from flower fields to hot springs. Time of day and weather vary, and rare ones show rainbows, whales, auroras, and more. Favorite, save, and share them in the Postcards tab. 【Daily task】 Clear one task a day for coins and XP. Watch a video to double the reward. ▼ Play at your own pace - Hunger and happiness fall slowly, and a short absence never kills your pet (only 48 hours of complete neglect does) - If hunger and happiness have never hit zero, a gentle notification lets you know before they do (until your pet grows up, when notifications are on) - No penalty for coming back after a while. The design is "oh, welcome back" - When a pet is fully grown, choose whether it graduates into a memory or keeps living on the island - Tap "Back up now" in Settings to save to iCloud and continue after switching phones or reinstalling Spend a little time with a little life on a little screen. Free to play with ads; a one-time Remove Ads purchase turns them off. Put Pixel Islet in your pocket today.
