About

DeskPet is a cute virtual pet that lives on your Mac desktop and helps you stay productive. Run Pomodoro-style focus sessions, get gentle reminders to drink water, stretch and rest your eyes, and keep track of tasks and notes. Chat with your pet by typing or voice, like “Start a 25-minute focus session” or “Add buy groceries to my tasks.” Private by default: it only reads your data if you allow it. Requires an Apple Silicon Mac with macOS 14 or later.
