Can be used under iOS 17 Pixel Pals 2 reviving the Tamagotchi tradition.
The new app has now been published by developer Christian Selig. You can try it out for free: Simply create a small virtual pet and see if you make friends.
Complete Pixel Pals widget integration
With new widgets for iOS 17, the digital buddy is displayed directly on the home screen. What’s more: you can play with him, feed the animal, fight with him and more.
There are also mini-games apart from the animals, as well as transparent widgets for an individual design of the iPhone screen. Finally, support for the Dynamic Island of the new iPhones was also integrated. The pets use this to let you know when they are hungry.
I just released Pixel Pals 2! ? With iOS 17 you now have a FULL virtual pets experience where you can add and battle friends, and play full games, like PixelQuest, 2048, and Eternal Stroll, all right on your literal home screen!

14.99 euros a year plus food
In this way, Selig brings retro nostalgia directly to the iOS home screen, a great idea. If you want this 365 days a year, you have to pay a little money: 14.99 euros a year, plus extra costs for large digital food packages.
