What’s New in Pebworld 2.0 The Pebologists have made several rather unexpected discoveries… First: Pebworld is now FREE. No subscriptions. No in-app purchases. No ads. There are simply more Pebs than the lab can reasonably handle, so please adopt one. Pebs have discovered the postal service. Your Peb can now send Postcards to another real Peb! Exchange a Peb address with a friend, send a tiny hello and trinket, reply to postcards you receive, and save Peb friends for later. Apparently Pebs have pen pals now. Pebs want things. They’re just not very good at asking. Every once in a while, your Peb may quietly hope for something specific: a snack, some playtime, a pat, or maybe just a little rest. Notice what they’re hoping for and something a little warmer might happen. Or do it completely by accident. Pebs appreciate that too. The Pebologists reorganized the lab. The Journal has a brand-new home that makes your memories, adventures, projects, Moments and everything else much easier to explore. Settings got a much-needed cleanup too. Pebs remain surprisingly adaptable. Pebworld is ready for the latest iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch software, including layouts that adapt to the new foldable iPhone Duo. And finally, the Pebologists spent an unreasonable amount of time crawling around the lab with magnifying glasses. A whole collection of bugs, odd behaviors and tiny rough edges have been found and fixed. Pebworld 2.0 is our biggest little update yet. The Pebologists will continue their research. The Pebs have not been informed.

What’s New in Pebworld 1.90 The Pebologists have been very busy… After extensive observation, several cups of coffee, and at least one incident we’re not prepared to discuss, the Pebologists have learned quite a bit about Pebs. PeBs like being appreciated. After you’ve spent some time together, your Peb may occasionally ask what you think of Pebworld. Apparently they have egos now. Pebs are remarkably adaptable. Pebworld has been updated for the latest iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch software. Pebs have friends. You’ll now find a link to Simply Games in Settings, where you can discover more things from the people responsible for unleashing Pebs into the world. And the lab has had a VERY thorough cleaning. The Pebologists tracked down and eliminated dozens of tiny bugs, polished some rough edges, and generally made Pebworld happier, smoother, and ready to welcome a whole lot of new Pebs. One more thing… Pebworld is now FREE. No subscription. No in-app purchases. Just adopt a Peb and see where your life together goes. The Pebologists can’t wait to see what happens next.

Pebologists have made an exciting discovery… It turns out Pebs can learn Japanese! They’re still practicing, but Pebworld is now available in Japanese. 日本語、まだまだ練習中 We’ve also continued refining your Peb’s behavior and squashed a few tiny bugs that escaped the lab. Pebologists have uncovered surprising new Peb behavior… It appears Pebs naturally invent their own little projects! They might decide to build something, collect interesting treasures, practice a new skill, or quietly work on a surprise—all on their own. Every Peb chooses projects based on its own personality, memories, and even the weather, making each journey a little more unique. Pebologists have also discovered that Pebs are surprisingly aware of the world around them. Try gently tilting your phone—you might notice your Peb reacting… or even discover something just beyond the edge of the world. As always, we’ve continued improving Pebworld behind the scenes to make every visit feel a little more magical.

Pebologists have confirmed that Pebs are learning Japanese. It's early days — the Pebs are still practicing, so the occasional phrase may come out endearingly wonky while they find their footing. 日本語、まだまだ練習中 Also observed: Pebs now return from their wanderings without fretting over the clock.

Pebologist have learned that Pebs occasionally do something on purpose! Every so often, your Peb will have a little moment — it might make you something, notice the sky, or decide a feather means today is lucky. You can keep these, or share them with someone who needs a small good thing. Researchers have also confirmed that Pebs keep a quiet record of their days, and that they wind down when you tend to. (They learned your evenings. They didn't ask. They just noticed.) Smaller findings: Pebs are sleepy slightly less often than previously believed, and are now better at heading out on adventures when they're plainly wide awake. As always: same Peb, a little more itself.

Pebworld had some bugs, so our Pebologists took care of them.

Pebbologists have determined that Pebs are perfectly comfortable existing outside the app. v1.30 lets your Peb settle onto your home screen and lock screen as a small widget — quietly there in the corner, however your Peb happens to be feeling today. When your Peb leaves on an adventure, a Live Activity rides along on the lock screen and (on supported devices) in the Dynamic Island, so you can see how your wanderer is doing without opening anything. Your Peb is still entirely your Peb. Just slightly more visible now.

Pebologists knew that Peb's had their own holidays, however we realized we weren't being informed well about them. So they built a new Peb Holiday Indicator Tool. It's PHIT! :)

It turns out Pebs have been quietly thinking about you between visits — we just had no way to know. v1.21 lets your Peb tap your shoulder, very gently, when a new thought arrives or a snack starts to feel important.

Pebbologists have determined that French Pebs prefer se poser dans le coin chaud, while Spanish Pebs are partial to un rinconcito tranquilo. After months of study, we've taught the app to understand both.

Scientists have found out that Peb's really like their trinkets, and sometimes will name them. Peb's are also very chatty, and now they announce things they need to do (e.g. I'll count the corners for a bit). During that time they can't interact. Why? Because they are counting corners! Our crack brainiac team also found out that Peb's have memory. They will sometimes forget their trinkets and sometimes go back to them. How's your Peb doing?

Small but meaningful updates to Peb's inner life. Peb now leaves you a tender little letter when you come back after being away for a while. You'll find them collected in the Journal, ready to share. Peb composes occasional poems in their own voice — quiet three-line moments you can save and share. When you and your Peb hit a milestone day together (30, 100, a whole year), the room celebrates a little. Peb's voice slowly becomes more uniquely theirs the longer you spend time together. Plus a handful of quiet polish.

Scientists have been hard at work helping Peb's increase their intelligence and emotional awareness. With an amazing breakthrough of modern technology we have found a way to help your Peb (and any new Peb you may meet) grow, learn, and have memories to share with you. Be nice to your Peb - they love you!
