I have am internet browser on my phone. I don't see the point of this app. 9/10 it will still have adds somehow.

by rayen on December 1, 2025 7:32 AM NST

OMG! OMG! OMG! Ive been dreaming of an app for so many years. I hope it makes its way to the US soon.

The preview screens are most of what it can do so far, you can view your inventory too but the only option is to feed your pets, not move items to sdb or anything else. It feels pretty pointless to me at the moment, hopefully they'll add more soon, especially being able to change your active pet.

Does it have ads? That's what will make or break it for me personally

by xweetak5 on December 1, 2025 7:49 AM NST

I just want the site conversion completed or reverted

by labtech468 on December 1, 2025 8:00 AM NST

@xweetak5 it says right on the play store listing that it contains ads, yeah.

i don't use a smartphone so this is useless for me but i hope it works great for people who don't have a PC to play on!

by chevrine on December 1, 2025 8:15 AM NST

@chevrine thanks! I was wondering if it's general ads or if it's only the wheel spins/"voluntary" ads, should've clarified!

by xweetak5 on December 1, 2025 8:19 AM NST

this seems like a waste of resources feels like they want an app just because everyone was doing it in 2012-2015.

What does this bring to the table that the mobile version of the site does not?

by saudor on December 1, 2025 8:29 AM NST

I don't see the point of it apps, it does exactly what the site in the browser does. And I bet it'll be cheaply made, and riddled with bugs and ads. Wish "dom" would spend his time FIXING the site and the pay to win problem instead.

by silvia on December 1, 2025 8:33 AM NST

Is Shoyru actually spelled properly in the app, or is it spelled Shoryu like in all of these screenshots?

by obaraten on December 1, 2025 8:38 AM NST

I would guess most of the advantages of having a mobile app are for TNT: get their logo on your home screen; send you push notifications if you let them; perceived legitimacy simply for having one. would also be helpful if they had features that leveraged mobile hardware like the camera or GPS though that doesn't apply to Neopets.

as for what it does for the player I largely agree with the more skeptical comments here that it's probably more sensible to just keep doing mobile-responsive page conversions. there *might* be some performance improvements they can get from storing certain content in the app rather than have to send to your browser, which would make site interaction overall faster/less laggy. (I am not in ANZ so can't say what's even in there.)

I'm desktop player I'd guess 95-98% of my time so whether they keep up mobile-responsive conversions or do a mobile app it's a bit moot for me either way. at the very least I shiver at the thought of TNT having to support another mobile app when there's already abundant evidence of their limited resources.

lol @obaraten

by atylos on December 1, 2025 8:53 AM NST

a neopets app? too good to be true?

by vanque on December 1, 2025 8:55 AM NST

@kenny this thing is probably some electron-based wrapper off their mobile site and not an actual native app. Otherwise dev costs for Android and iOS would be too high. And even with a mobile site, you can add it to the home screen as an icon and even show notifications. Guess their devs/chatgpt prompts forgot to check the SDK lol

They’re just hopping on the bandwagon 10 years late. (faerie fragment is just one of 13,348,029 typical match 3 game that plagues the app store, L&L was a regular old hero summon gotcha thing like empires and puzzles if i remember correctly )

by saudor on December 1, 2025 9:12 AM NST

I'd really like a push notification system, however, they can't even get notifications right on the regular website...

by benladesh on December 1, 2025 9:12 AM NST

Only way I'm being convinced to download is if they finally gave us a unified closet system or something similar,

otherwise, I don't see the point, especially if ads are being forced onto us ..

by stuffie on December 1, 2025 9:59 AM NST

I hope it's easier to navigate than the website tbh. It would be useful for dailies and all the PHP games (like Sahkmet Solitaire) that are a bit awkward to play on a mobile browser. TNT can't please everyone, but I can't count how many people have actually asked for an app that wasn't a separate game (like FF/TaDa). It's likely easier than converting the entire site to the mobile layout... Which would also annoy a demographic of players who dislike the new layouts.

by coryldork on December 1, 2025 10:14 AM NST

Surprisingly

by gnostichkdum on December 1, 2025 10:44 AM NST

I primarily play on mobile and the experience is terrible on the phone so I may be the only person excited for an app. Until people mentioned there’s a possibility they force ads on it.
I’ll continue using the lousy mobile experience for adblock if that ends up being the case

by nightshadeswiftswing on December 1, 2025 11:07 AM NST

I gave the app a try. It has a little bit of stuff there, such as pets, some wheels and a couple of games. I think it's a good start. While it's not much at the moment, I'm sure there are big plans to add more to the app and I have positive hopes for them.

by forever_future on December 1, 2025 11:56 AM NST

I see the companion app as an easy way to do dailies (if they'll add them) on the go without wasting lots of phone data. It can work if they do it properly

by spongegrundo on December 1, 2025 12:54 PM NST

I only play on pc so this is pointless to me, but I hope it works for people who play on phones... Hopefully they also fix the site someday...

by godzilla1 on December 1, 2025 12:55 PM NST

So can we dailies yet or not? No new quest log? Off topic, I won obelisk battle and chose cartogripiocation , but I can't view the ad no matter what D: is this new?

by dakukuu on December 1, 2025 1:08 PM NST

" Not available in your country. "

by purplem8n on December 1, 2025 1:08 PM NST

Downloaded the app. I hope there is a survey that comes out for feedback that ends up giving a decent prize and an avatar would be nice. had a quick look and so far would be good to have more of the wheels. Maybe premium features like space faerie scratchcard. Looking forward to seeing the app grow.

by talzworld on December 1, 2025 3:54 PM NST

Push notifications would be cool, especially for TP offers. I do agree they should be focusing more on converting pages to be mobile friendly at this point. They’re a decade late on this

by bluestar on December 1, 2025 5:33 PM NST

It'd be a huge benefit if you could buy neocash through the app/play store so I could use Google play money and gift cards and not my actual credit card

by asia280 on December 1, 2025 7:29 PM NST

you can download it using a vpn/spoof location; it will still work after uninstalling. I used the NordVPN trial xD

by cherryvixxen on December 1, 2025 9:32 PM NST

Would also be good to be able to play/equip/read etc to the pet from both the inventory and the pet view. Customising pets would be good too. Agree with the above about push notification and this would be good for neomails, gifts, pound transfers and nf requests etc. I'm sure they have a lot of good plans for this app, I just hope these are included

by talzworld on December 2, 2025 4:47 PM NST

Downloaded it here in Aus and it's not the best but not the worst.
You can feed your pets, play two games that weren't great especially trying to send score in fashion fever. You can spin wheels but they get the picture to prize wrong, it landed on money bag and it said my Neopets lost a book. Overall I personally have uninstalled it.

by lilly2591 on December 2, 2025 5:20 PM NST

I feel like it should be A/NZ because they're different countries (even better AUS/NZ).. like you wouldn't say USACAN it would be USA/CAN.

by ohthatsfrikey7 on December 3, 2025 5:47 PM NST

If you spin the wheels in the app they don’t count for daily quests.
