Apollo App Adds 'Pixel Pals' to the iPhone 14 Pro Dynamic Island

This is ridiculous.

Think what you want, but I now want this all the time, in every app, constantly. It’s the Talking Moose for a new generation.

 

[bluespark]

Not even gonna lie. This will sell thousands of Pro phones.

This seals the deal for me.

No Clarus the dogcow?

Would love to read the fine print TOS for that app and what they are “looking” at of yours

Go for it, it's pretty straightforward and boring 😛 https://apolloapp.io/privacy

tl;dr: I'm not looking.

This is ridiculous and unecessary. I love it!

Shocked at most of these comments. I would delete that app in a heartbeat if there were no way to get rid of that eyesore.

Which is why it’s a setting you have to turn on. You even get to choose the animal type if you want it.

This is one of the most active developers. He’s always improving Apollo. Kinda weird reactions from MR peeps, you would think he personally offended y’all. This is a funny little gimmick added to the best Reddit app yet.

Woohoo! Glad you folks are liking it, if you have any questions feel free to ask! This was so fun to build haha.

This is legit the first thing that has truly made me like the new design. It shows that those pixels indeed might actually be used for something. Also it’s cool. Great job. They’re good dogs, Brent.

Dynamic Island version looks cool, but when will this be available for the Static Peninsula?

iPhone is quickly becoming a Fisher Price device.

I won’t dog on you for that.

I am sorry. Adding fun to a device does not make it a toy. Steve loved the little touches. What does the iMac G3 looks like a Fisher Price just cause it has bright colors and is made of plastic?

It’s not even about what Steve liked haha

This is a developer’s App Store app not apple’s and not baked into the os. Let’s pump the brakes on outrage. If you don’t like it , it can be turned off. By default it isn’t even on. What is this nothingburger

That seals it. Officially off the fence now!

 

[Macalway]

This is sooo front page material.

On launch day, this. My God it's a slow year.

 

[Alex Cai]

Reminds me of the Touch Bar app

 

[gorkt]

That’s stinking cute!

 

[AdamJD]

This is ADORABLE! I want the pill to look like Snoopy's doghouse with Snoopy on top.

I've wondering why on TWIT they've been talking about unused space above the pill...as if it wouldn't be used. So odd for them not to get right away that it would be used.

 

[UltimateSyn]

That's actually brilliant. Really cute and clever idea.

 

[coolfactor]

Great! A pixelated variation of Clippy!

 

[anthogag]

Hilarious 🤪

 

[ArrayDecay]

I really believe that the Dynamic Island has a lot of potential.

There is a tremendous Animal Crossing brand opportunity here.
