This game still exists?!
Fri Apr 16 2021 MaddieMacCheeseI haven't thought about this game in 8 or 9 years. The last time I played, I was in 6th grade, and now I'm halfway through undergrad. Seeing this again on the app store came very out of nowhere and the nostalgia I got was unreal. It brought me back to sitting at the lunch table with my friends, all wearing Justice and mustache-themed apparel, looking through stolen Pintrest posts on our Facebooks, and playing this game. I don't know how to feel about those memories, but this game definitely presses all the right buttons to bring them back. 4/5.
DISAPPEARING POU.
Tue Feb 13 2024 RavenclawChaser4i recently had a really frustrating experience with the game pou. i opened the app today, only to find that all of my progress had been completely wiped out, and i was back to level 1. this is beyond infuriating.
i had put so much time and effort into leveling up my Pou and unlocking new features. losing all of that progress in an instant was incredibly disheartening. it felt like all my hard work had gone down the drain.
i understand that technical issues can happen, but losing all progress without any warning or explanation is unacceptable. it’s frustrating to invest time and energy into a game, only to have it taken away without any recourse.
i hope the developers of pou can address this issue and find a way to prevent such data loss from happening in the future. It's important for players to feel confident that their progress will be safe and secure.
i downloaded this game on december 25, 2023. this game really brought me back to my childhood. it actually cured my depression. i remember the good old days, playing pou on my parents phone with my cousin. the fact that this has happened to me, has caused me into a deep depression.
this game tried to tell me that i never put my email in, which is not true. i did. despite the fact that all progress was erased it somehow still knew my date of birth. so what’s up with that?? hm?
(not) sincerely,
- a very angry player
Pou Good sides and down sides
Sat May 17 2025 Salvatore 236Pou is a game where you take care of an alien. You have to feed it every once in a while and put it to sleep but health positions so he stays healthy. You can play games customize Pou change Pou’s color change Pou’s designs on his room.
The only downside of this game is that it could be really hard to take care of him during the week because Pou needs like help every 3 hours, so if your at school he will starve need health positions and he needs sleep.
There are some reviews talking about getting their child this which I do recommend, but… If you read a few reviews it says “when my child come back from home from school takes a shower does homework. Then hop on Pou and the kid is scared worrying that Pou is going to die.”
Really fun game ! Highly recommended!
Sun Aug 13 2023 Dixie rebel 1970I had this game a longtime ago and loved playing it. Years later it’s still available for download and play and I was thrilled. My daughter who is now 17
Years of age was 8 when she came home from school and told me about it. Now I have my own little Pou to take after and so does my daughter….happy memories and good times can still be shared. I highly recommend this game to who wants a fun family oriented app that takes one back to the tamagotchi but you have it on your phone or even your computer/ laptop. There’s lots of fun games to play, feed your Pou, and others. Even though there was a small fee of 1.99 it was well worth it! Last but not least THERE IS NO ADS!
NOT A RIP OFF OF MY BOO
Sun Jul 02 2017 Katie1058This game is great! And for anyone who saids this is a ripoff of My Boo, do your research. I remember when the car game where you just keep going forward came out (forgot what's it's called) a few years ago. And, last year, My Boo copied the exact same idea!
Well that doesn't mean it's first, you may be thinking. And you're right. But if you look it up, pou came out august 5th, 2012, and my boo came out in 2015. So there. Do you're research.
This game is really fun! I would totally recommend it. It's REALLY addictive though (that's not always a bad thing!)
I used to play this game a lot but then I just... forgot about it. I was scrolling through my purchased apps and decided: "hey? Why not?"
And it's still better than my boo.
I LOVE IT!
Wed Mar 30 2016 QueenOfTheDerpzPou is a game where you have a small creature, your Pou, and you dress them up and take care of them, Tamagotchi style. I love this game so so much! I got it a few years ago on another phone and I loved my Pou so much, but I switched phones and Pou didn't make the switch. I sort of forgot about her, what with the app costing money and all, until a few weeks ago when I checked the App Store to find it was once again free! I immediately downloaded it. And luckily, this app lets you sign in and save your Pou, so I had my Pou back! I had missed her so much. There are so many things to do in this game and it's an overall super fun, super cute time killer. Now go out there and get your Pou!
Love the app but I have a request
Thu Jul 18 2019 alr.tabsI definitely love this app, I’ve had it forever now and I still love it just as much as I did when I first got it. More so now because I am leveled up and I don’t have to pay 1999 to unlock items. I do have a request/idea though that I think would make the app even better!! Could it be possible to have multiple Pous? As in like save separate worlds or characters? Because I don’t know about anyone else, but I would like to have an opinion whether I want to use a girl Pou or a boy Pou with separate worlds... We could customize two separate houses and pets and playgrounds. I just think that would be great!
Love it!
Thu Jul 28 2016 Wwwhhhhhyyyy?!?!?!It's so cute and, to all of you out there, SOO much better that boo. If you spam the food enough you can pretty much force feed him and give him love handles for a bit, and the games are awesome. You can dress him up and, unlike other pet games, watch him grow up from a little pou to an adult pou! I don't let little ones play the game or else they will have too much fun and won't give him back! I do leave you with this one piece of advice. DO NOT TURN ON NOTIFICATIONS! Every time you leave the app you will be sent a notification. It happens at least twice a day. Other than that everything is awesome!
Love the nostalgia.. but needs some updates
Fri Dec 01 2023 Samantha13808I downloaded this because I loved playing it as a kid and my friends started getting it and friending each other. I still love how original it is to how I remembered it, but I think some changes could really benefit the user experience. First of all, my airpods always disconnect whenever I open the app. I don’t really want the world to hear me feeding my pou.. especially in public. Also I think a widget could be really cool for this game! It would remind people to take care of their pou because they would see how its doing on their home screen. Overall I really like the app but these changes could make it even better!!
Please fix to be able to listen to music during
Thu Sep 15 2022 イハスキッテーI love this app and have loved it for many years since I used to play it on my mom’s phone back in 5th grade. The app is perfect beside this one issue I’ve come across. Whenever I’m listening to music in the background or have picture in picture open, my music/video will pause whenever I do anything in the app. Could you please allow these things to play while playing if possible? Thank you!
