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

Not as appealing for those of us in dark mode.

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.

That’s a little dramatic.

LOL Half my brain went "what a joke" the other half went "can I get this all the time??!?"

I totally want this all the time now

Reminds me of cat in the Dock from the early days of OSX. Just as useful, too!

Apple is going to ban it. 😅

Now that is a killer app. If they don't want the DI to become the next Touch Bar, this is how to do it.

They better do. Otherwise iOS is heading toward Android mess and we do not want that.

Now we need a sloth to hang upside down for those of us not having a 14 pro.

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

Is there a way to leave the pet on even if the app is in the background?

I love it if the flying toasters came back!!!

I found the pong game to be a better use of the dynamic island.
Would't mind playing a casual game, gere and there, while waiting for a bus.

Get off my island

Hey @Crowbot,

Thanks for this link. Site has great screensaver nostalgia. I loved the After Dark Screensavers.

I was never that much into them but I have this one running on my Mac.

Go ahead. It’s a free country.

The cutout gives a good reason for devs to be playful and funny about it, but i don't see why they wouldn't do it on older models, it's not like you cannot add a pet to an app without having the Dynamic Island up there.

 

[crashFlow5]

have the courage to create it for the notch too.

 

[B-Mc-C]

it's a toggle. so you got violently irate over nothing.

it's minuscule, most of the time you wont notice it if youre not trying to look at it.

most emotionally well-adjusted people dont mind fun things.

Violently irate?!? LOL! Yes I am out there rioting and tearing up the streets over a design choice in a 3rd party app I don’t have. The amount of hate I am getting because I said I wouldn’t want a crap icon in my beautiful UI is hilarious. Not sure how everyone in this thread got so triggered. Interesting bunch. #FreeCountry #DealWithIt 😘

 

[bobtem]

”decided to implement…” ?

Can’t you just say “implemented”? Or is this the more-words-are-better school of writing at MR?

 

[vicviper789]

The worst part about this feature is knowing Apple will remove it without explanation in a release or two and it will go the way of touchId, MagSafe, and 3D Touch

I have 7 gorgeous rescue cats. Could be 8 soon but just bought iPhone 13 mini. Looking forward to iPhone 15, USB-C and goodbye USB 2.0!!

This reminds me of a dancing stripper on windows 98 pc desktop.

you got the hate because you said you'd delete it if you couldnt get rid of it...instead of just finding out you can get rid of it. so much for a "free country" where you have access to all information you want on that "beautiful UI", but instead of seeking it out, you chose to write that....drivel.

not a surprise with the hashtag content, and use of the word triggered. tells me what type we're dealing with...
