It being in the dynamic island and not on top of it is a huge mistake

[ozielagama]

Hope they add it so the tiny one stays above the island and doesn’t take up a spot as an app. Cuz when I play music it doesn’t show it anymore just makes it a small second island

I wish people would mention that you can only feed/play with them if you pay for premium.

[anndl]

How come there are no options whenever I press the dynamic island? It also does not show up on my home screen? Is it for premium only?

[Tiecongli]

But you cannot get the pat walking on the edge of dynamics island without opening the app

HOW ARE YOU GUYS GETTING PASSED OPENING IT??? IT JUST PLAYS AN EYEDRESS SONG AND FOR ES ME TO PAY

Thanks so much Alicia!!! I just upgraded to iOS 16.1 and went in and checked on the app and I was able to turn on dynamic island!!! Woo Hoo!! I’m so excited. Thanks again, Jacob and Alicia for this fun treat! Have a Great Day! Ginger 😊

In the pass hour I’m trynna figure out how to put the pet on top of my lock screen😭 looks kinda weird on the bottom

[radicalfedd]

Is there a way to only add the pet at the top of the dynamic island?

[matty]

any way to feed/play with pet without them taking us inside the app? I saw someone else had their pet running on their dynamic island while they're in other apps and was wondering how to do it

[moshimoshi]

Is anyone experiencing an issue where the dynamic pet doesn’t show after charging through the night?

[ninia]

Does show the always show thing. I even got the paid version and it still doesn’t show it

[vinicamperoni]

my app dont show the allow dynamic island im uing iphone 14 pro max

[lukestevo]

It doesn’t have an option for me to always display pixel pet. Any ideas?

[opinionatedoliver]

What a nerve… I can’t believe you’d even advertise an app with a subscription payment model that will end up costing you €24 in the course of a year with the ultra generous launch offer of 1.99€ a month.
For what? A few pixels that may be cute but are nothing more than a useless gimmick that should, at most, be a one time payment of said €2…

Okay, you could say „but you have two animals in the free version“, yeah right.
But each and every time you simply tap on the dynamic island, you’ll be presented all the things you cannot get unless you’re willing to pay for them via monthly or yearly installments.
That’s nuts and just a rip-off

[tobey]

It seems to only work after you have the most up to date version of IOS. However I still cannot feed/play without going into the app.

[left_feet]

So my lock screen doesnt look like yours with your pet showing. Mine says “ (name) the fox” but doesnt show the fox, Any tips?

[kelsangdolma]

When I press the free ones it says try premium 😭

[ndumisonhlozi]

Mine dances inside the island, but i want it on top without opening the app

[Sendginger]

Do you have to pay monthly to use the dynamic island feature?? It doesn’t show up on the free version in the U.S.
