Field notes
The page describes a two-phone setup: one partner makes a pet in secret, and it arrives as an egg on the other person’s iPhone. Gestures—such as a poke, note, or photo—raise its glow; inactivity lowers it, while Busy mode pauses decay. The site also describes widgets, Live Activities, a shared squeeze, and a private scrapbook for notes, photos, firsts, and records.
