PEX
The app
Pex is a virtual pet app (Tamagotchi-style) for iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch and Android. You create a pixel-art pet with AI, then feed it, play with it and care for it while it lives on your Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets.
- Pex runs on iPhone, iPad, Mac and Android. On Apple Watch it becomes a watch face, and on iPhone it lives in Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets.
- Pex is free to download on the App Store and Google Play. An optional Premium upgrade unlocks extra features.
- Pick a photo of your real pet, a drawing, a toy or even a keychain. Pex AI turns it into a pixel-art pet, you choose its animations, and then you adopt it.
- Real needs that evolve throughout the day — hunger, happiness, cleanliness and sleep. Neglect it, and your Pex will let you know.
- Idle, eating, sleeping, cleaning, playing and running — every Pex reacts to how you take care of it.
- Keep your Pex visible all day with Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets, and glanceable Dynamic Island moments.
- With Cloud Backup on, your Pex and its progress are saved to iCloud on Apple devices (sign in with the same Apple ID) or to Google Drive on Android (sign in with the same Google account), so they come back on your new phone.
- Languages: English, Portuguese, Spanish, German, French, Italian, Indonesian, Japanese, Korean and Simplified Chinese.
