Meta wants you to tell your secrets to a cute AI pet in Waddle World app.

Meta wants to make its AI feel like a cute tiny friend through a newly launched pet journal app called Waddle World. Think of it as Tamagotchi, but the pixelated pet can actually chat with you and doodle little illustrations based on what you tell it about your day. Right now, this free app is available on iOS and Android only in the Philippines, with access limited to adults.

Waddle World is a pet that wants to know about your day

Waddle World bills itself as “a daily journal disguised as a pet,” and that’s a pretty fair description. You get to hatch a virtual pet, then talk to it by typing or speaking, so that it gets to know you over time. It turns your daily update into a journal entry in its own voice, complete with a doodle. The app also sends weekly emails based on what it learns about you.

Meta has added a few cozy mini-games too.…
