Virtual pet app

A virtual pet that feels like it has its own day.

Choose a cat, dog, or illustrated companion. Give it a name. Then let it rest, wander, play, and keep you company at a pace that does not demand constant attention.

No real pet, iPhone, or Apple Watch is required to enjoy the virtual companion.

Choose a companion

More than a looping animation.

Furroam gives the companion a small daily life. You can watch it, interact with it, or leave it be. The point is company that fits around your day, not another checklist.

114 companions

Explore realistic and illustrated cats and dogs. The collection includes different breeds, coats, moods, and visual styles.

Actions over time

Rest, movement, play, and other small behaviors can unfold through the day. Furroam Club adds more actions for each companion.

One shared identity

Your companion's name, appearance, collection, and saved moments stay together when you move between iPhone and Mac.

No pressure

A companion, not a second job.

  • Start with a free app and choose a companion without buying hardware.
  • Keep the virtual pet available when you do not have a real pet.
  • Switch to real-pet updates later without resetting the companion.
  • Use the companion on Mac while the iPhone is elsewhere.
  • Return to saved moments even when simulated events are not being created.

Everyday surfaces

Keep a little life around your screen.

See the companion and recent state in Home Screen widgets, Lock Screen views, and Dynamic Island on supported iPhones. On Mac, the same character can stay beside your work in a floating window.

The companion does not need a real pet to exist. If you later connect Apple Watch, real activity and simulated activity remain distinct, so you can tell what came from where.

Common questions

About Furroam's virtual pets.

These answers describe the current app. Features can depend on your device, operating system, and membership.

Do I need a real pet or Apple Watch?

No. The virtual companion works without a real pet, iPhone, or Apple Watch. Watch sync is an optional extension for people who want their companion to follow a real pet's activity.

How many companions can I choose from?

The app currently offers more than 100 cats, dogs, and illustrated companions across several visual collections.

Do I have to play every day?

No. Furroam is designed for low-pressure companionship. You can check in when you want, and the companion can continue its own simulated rhythm while you are away.

Is Furroam free?

The app is free to download. Furroam Club is an optional auto-renewable subscription that unlocks additional actions and content. The current plan and price are shown before purchase.
