Turn your pet's photo into a cozy pixel-art companion for your Home Screen, Lock Screen, and Dynamic Island. Because the ones we love should always be with us.
Your pet, pixel-perfect — living on your Home Screen, Lock Screen, and Dynamic Island.
Petwidge turns a single photo of your dog, cat, or any animal into a handcrafted 16-bit pixel-art companion, then gives them a home right on your phone. Your pet greets you every time you check the time, the weather, or just glance down. Because the ones we love should always be with us.
No stock characters here — every Petwidge sprite is one of one, drawn from your photo.
HOW IT WORKS
• Pick one photo of your pet.
• We paint two souls to choose from — one bright-eyed and playful, one calm and noble — and you pick the one that's really them.
• Name them, and they move into your widgets, Lock Screen, and Dynamic Island.
WIDGETS FOR EVERY SPOT
• Pixel clock — your pet keeps the time.
• Date & weather — rain or shine, right by your side.
• Analog clock and calendar, color-matched to your pet.
ALWAYS WITH YOU
• Dynamic Island: a tiny companion at the top of your screen — long-press to see them bigger.
• Lock Screen & StandBy: a familiar little face whenever you glance.
MADE WITH CARE
• Every sprite is tuned to look like YOUR pet — their markings, their colors, their little face.
• No accounts. No sign-up. Just your pet.
• Free to start — three fresh sparks every sunrise to create new pets.
A NOTE ON PRIVACY
To create your pixel pet, your photo is sent securely to Google's Gemini AI and comes right back — we don't store it on our servers. We ask once, before your very first pet.
Petwidge is a love letter to the pets who make our days brighter, and to the humans who miss them.
