Pixbu turns daily self-care into a pixel pet that grows with you. Tick off small things — water, a walk, a minute of breathing — and your creature hatches from an egg, evolves through stages, and unlocks signature animations. No streaks to shame you, no punishment, no ads. It runs fully on-device: no account, no server. Home-screen widget, focus timer with ambient sound, step counter, guided routines for days when starting is the hard part, and a goal piggy bank. 6 languages.
