Pathlings 5.2 is here, with fresh paws on the path! • Sparkwing and Pandrop got their walking legs. Every one of Sparkwing's forms, and Pandrop too, now has a brand-new hand-painted walk, blinks included. • Your Rubies, recapped: your Monday recap now shows the Rubies you earned last week and where they came from, whether PathLeague, Quests, Trail Runs or walk bonuses. • Adopting a new friend is cozier: the Ruby Store shows your next Pathling relaxing in its own habitat, along with how much XP and how many Rubies you still need. • A little red dot on the Ruby Store means a new Pathling is ready to come home with you. Also new • Pathlings is now about 40% smaller to download, and looks just as lovely. • Smoother, springier tab switching, and the store's category chips stay put while you scroll them. • The Today header stays tucked at the top while you scroll. • You can close the PathLeague invite on Today if you're not ready to race yet. • "See final standings" takes you straight to last week's PathLeague results. • Announcements show up just once, even on a new phone or after a reinstall.

The starters have a new look! Our forest mouse, lava frog and water panda have new artwork for all five forms. Your buddy keeps their name and all their progress. • Meet Pebblehorn, a sandstone rhino with five forms to grow through, a Canyon Overlook habitat and a new Canyon Run. • Pathlings now wander around together and keep their full size in busy habitats. • Adopting another Pathling no longer needs a separate slot purchase. Reach your second form and save 3,000 Rubies to welcome another buddy. • Updated Pathling artwork on widgets and Apple Watch, plus layout fixes for smaller watches.

Pathlings 5.0 is our biggest update yet, by far! • Take your Pathling for a stroll: start a walk and follow it live on your Lock Screen. • Earn 50 Rubies a day: walk half your daily goal in a single walk. • Walk from your wrist: start and end walks on Apple Watch, or ask Siri to "Start a walk in Pathlings." • Earn Rubies with friends: get 100 Rubies for each new friend you add in PathLeague. • See friends' streaks right in the PathLeague race. • Rest Day Shields: keep your streak safe on a day you can't reach your goal. • Your week, recapped: a Monday story of your steps, streak, and progress. • Feed and Play shortcuts on the Home Screen widget. Also new • Steps show up right away with Motion & Fitness. • Walk History, so you can look back on every stroll. • Tap any Pathling in your habitat to see their card or make them your Main Buddy. • Your streak and shields are backed up to iCloud. • Trail Runs feel faster and smoother, with a finish line worth reaching. • A warmer welcome, and a quicker start for new players.

By popular demand, PathLeague now has its own tab! Our most exciting feature now has more space in the UI, so you can keep better track of your weekly races against your friends' Pathlings.

Minor design changes to PathLeague. Now your weekly competition looks more like a race and less like a leaderboard!
