Touchbar Pet
Touchbar Pet is a virtual pet simulator that lets users raise and care for an animal companion that lives in your MacBook's Touch Bar. You can adopt a dog, cat, rabbit, or hamster, and spend time walking them, feeding them, playing with them, and decorating their habitat. The game tracks stats like health, hunger and happiness, and earns in-game currency (tokens) that you spend on food, toys and collectibles. It's designed as an idle or casual play experience for MacBook users who want a companion that persists in the Touch Bar throughout the day.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionWe found no evidence of a native Apple Silicon build of Touchbar Pet in either the vendor's official communications or the search results. The app is actively downloadable from the developer's website, but no recent updates mentioning Apple Silicon or Universal Binary support are apparent. If you rely on Touchbar Pet, contact the developer at the project homepage or through the app itself to ask whether a native build is planned before macOS 28 ships in September 2028, since an Intel-only build will stop launching on that release. Given that this is a small-scale entertainment app and the Touch Bar itself is gradually being de-emphasized in favour of the notch on newer MacBook Pros, it is possible the app may not receive native updates. In the meantime, the app continues to run under Rosetta 2, so you have time to plan if you wish to migrate to an alternative idle game or pet simulator.
