How To Add A Tamagotchi Pet To Your MacBook Touch Bar

When it introduced the Touch Bar to the MacBook Pro, Apple won’t have expected it to be used as a Tamagotchi pet. The Touch Bar is intended to provide easy access to functions that can help to improve a user’s productivity. However, few would argue that feeding and petting a cute kitty instead isn’t a worthwhile use of it.

Tamagotchis, for the uninitiated, were Japanese toys that shot to prominence around the world during the 1990s. Small enough to be attached to a key chain and carried in a pocket, the battery-operated devices feature a screen displaying a small pet that requires caring for. Players must keep their pets alive, happy, and healthy by feeding, playing with, and cleaning up after them. Over 82 million are said to have been sold by 2017, showing just how popular the Tamagotchi became. The same can’t be said for Apple’s Touch Bar, however. Introduced in 2016, it allows users to do things like answer FaceTime calls, choose emojis, select predictive text, edit photos, and open website shortcuts. Despite all that, opinion on the Touch Bar is very much split.

Users might be more favorable were they to install Touchbar Pet. Created by iOS developer Grace Avery, Touchbar Pet is an unofficial but no-less delightful take on the Tamagotchi. Its cat-like pet meanders back and forth along the MacBook Pro’s Touch Bar eating treats, playing, sleeping, and doing its business. Users must look after it and can also play laser pointer and ball games with it.

How To Use The MacBook Pro Touch Bar Tamagotchi

The Touchbar Pet can be downloaded from Avery’s website for use on MacOS 10.14 or above. To begin, users just need to tap the egg to hatch it, after which they can tap their pet to pet it, tap an empty space to drop food, and tap its poop to clear up after it. A two-finger tap will play a laser pointer game with the pet while swiping in an empty space will roll a ball for it.

The pet loses health if it is not fed enough, it’s overfed, its environment is too dirty, or it’s lonely. Each of these can be combated via the various actions that a user can do, such as feeding the pet when it’s hungry, playing with it when it is lonely, and so on. Avery also notes that the pet gets grumpy if it’s woken up from naps too often — something we can all empathize with. It sounds like Apple may drop the Touch Bar from the MacBook Pro, but Touchbar Pet seems like a solid argument for keeping it.
