About Cosmo – Your Pet, Virtually
Take one photo of your pet — and it moves in. Cosmo turns that photo into a little pixel animal that lives on your Lock Screen and up in the Dynamic Island. It sleeps, stretches, plays and eats its way through the day, right where you look a hundred times anyway. No feeding, no chores, no streak to keep alive. HOW IT WORKS • Take a photo of your dog, cat or rabbit • Watch it turn into a pixel pet, frame by frame • Give it a name and let it move in WHERE IT LIVES On your Lock Screen — and in the Dynamic Island on the iPhones that have one. Even when the app is closed. YOURS, FOR GOOD One purchase, no subscription. Your pet is backed up to your private iCloud, so it survives a new phone.
What’s new
Version 1.0.5 · Updated September 22, 2026
Your pet is drawn far more accurately now. Coat colour, markings, eye colour and ear shape match your photo much more closely — and pets that used to be tricky now come out clean: long-haired, very dark and unusual companions alike. The transformation takes a little longer in return. Give your pet the minute.
