Pet Garden
Cute digital pets for your Home Screen & Dynamic Island.
Pet Garden lets you scan animal photos and turn them into adorable digital companions. Keep them close with customizable iOS Widgets, watch them hang out on your Dynamic Island, and feed them daily to unlock special garden ambiances!
Hi Product Hunt! 👋
I’m Bartu, the maker of Pet Garden.
I built this app because I wanted a cozy and aesthetic way to keep cute animals right on my home screen while I use my phone.
With Pet Garden, you can scan a photo of any animal and turn it into a digital icon. But instead of just keeping them inside the app, you bring them to your iOS ecosystem.
Here is what you can do:
📱 Widgets: Place your pets on your Home Screen and customize their frames.
🏝 Dynamic Island: Keep your pets active on your Dynamic Island via Live Activities.
🍖 Care & Streaks: Feed them daily to build a streak and unlock special ambiances (like the Sakura effect).
Under the hood ⚙️:
I built the app using React Native, but the real challenge was the seamless data flow between the app and the iOS components. I used App Group Containers and wrote custom Swift native modules to handle the Widget and Dynamic Island communication efficiently.
I’d love to hear your feedback on the widget integration, UI/UX, or anything else you notice. I’ll be here all day to answer your questions! 👇
Cheers!
