iPhone beta, coming soon

Digipup Tiny pixel pals, real stakes

Pair a pixel pet with one habit. Check in and it thrives. Forget, and it gets grumpy, messy, sick... and worse.

Beta (TestFlight) invites go to the waitlist first. We only use your email for that. Privacy

Simple on purpose

How it works

  1. Pick a pet

    Choose a pixel pal and give it a name. Pair it with one habit: water, meds, stretching, reading, a walk.

  2. Check in on your habit

    Every time you do the thing, tap Check in, right from the app, a widget or a notification.

  3. Keep it alive

    Your pal gets hungry for your attention. Keep up the habit and it stays happy. Fall behind and things get worse.

Careful out there

The stakes

Miss check-ins and your pal goes downhill, one stage at a time. The last stage is permanent.

  1. A happy puppy
    Healthy
  2. A grumpy puppy
    Grumpy
  3. A puppy next to a mess
    Soiled
  4. A sick puppy with a thermometer
    Sick
  5. A very sick puppy lying down
    Very sick
  6. A gravestone
    Gone for good

Yes, there is a Pet Killer badge. We would rather you never earn it.

What's inside

Features

Home Screen widgets in three sizes. The medium one has a Check in button, and tinted Home Screens are supported.

Streaks and prizes

Check in day after day to build a streak and unlock a treat, a collar, a golden pendant and more.

A puppy, kitten, bunny, frog, penguin or hamster. Pick your favorite, or adopt a whole crew.

Tap to pet

Your pal likes attention. Give it a pat and it will tell you how it feels about that.

Good questions

FAQ

Is it iPhone only?

Yes, for now. Digipup is an iPhone app with Home Screen widgets.

How much will it cost?

Price to be decided. You will hear it here first, along with your beta invite.

Does my pet really die?

Yes, your pet really dies. Miss enough check-ins and it is permanent: no undo, no paid revive. The death scenes are cartoonish, and you can switch the gore off in Settings.

What happens to my data?

All of your data stays on your phone. No accounts, no analytics, no servers. See the privacy policy.

When can I try it?

A beta (TestFlight) is coming, and waitlist members are invited first.
