Pwnagotchi Companion – Your Pwnagotchi’s Fancy iPhone Friend
Ever wish your adorable little AI cyber ferret could talk to your iPhone like it belongs in 2025?
Yeah, me too. So I made this.
Pwnagotchi Companion is an independent companion app for your Pwnagotchi that lets you check in on its status, stats, face, and other cool stuff — all in real time, right from your phone.
No more SSHing into your Pi Zero in a Tim Hortons parking lot just to see if your ’gotchi made any friends.
What it does:
Shows your Pwnagotchi’s current face and status
Displays live stats: networks, peers, channel, etc.
View battery %, temperature, uptime, and more
Tap to restart the Pwnagotchi (because sometimes you just gotta)
Connects over Bluetooth tethering
Optional: GPS data sharing like PwnDroid
Why?
Because carrying a pocket AI that inspects Wi-Fi should come with style — and maybe a little peace of mind.
Who is this for?
This app is for folks who:
Built a Pwnagotchi and want to show it off
Want iOS-native control and stats
Think network security is cool but Bluetooth debugging isn’t
Built with care, sarcasm, and way too many WebSocket retries.
Note: This is an independent project created by a community developer. It is not officially affiliated with or endorsed by the Pwnagotchi project or its maintainers. To use this app, you’ll need a working Pwnagotchi device with the companion plugin installed (available on GitHub — instructions included).
