A pet that lives in real time

Nidus Pets is a digital pet in the classic style. It gets hungry while you're at work, sleeps when you sleep, and calls for you a few times a day. Every egg is a mystery: its species is decided by how you raise it, and its job decides how it evolves.

When it grows old, it retires to Haven, a little town built by every pet you've raised.

On your wrist, too

What you'll do

Raise it your way

  • Ten species, each with branching evolutions shaped by its job.
  • Pat it, tickle it, or talk to it. With Apple Intelligence it chats back, on your device.
  • Train before a big fight: each session boosts its stats for a while.

Every day

  • Daily goals with coins and a streak bonus.
  • Walk together: your steps from Health earn XP and cheer it up.
  • A memories album keeps every milestone, from hatching to its first win.

Everywhere you look

  • Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets. Give it a pat right from the widget.
  • Watch complications show how it's doing.
  • A guided start teaches you the basics as you play.
