Meta正继续其快节奏的AI应用实验，现已推出一款名为Waddle World的新应用，它本质上看起来像是电子宠物机的翻版，但加入了AI。这可能是一次测试，但也极有可能是该公司由Muse驱动的电子宠物类设备的先声。
Continuing its fast-paced experiments with AI apps, Meta has now launched a new app called Waddle World, which essentially looks like a Tamagotchi clone, but with AI. The might be a test, but it could very well be a precursor to the company’s Tamagotchi-like gadget powered by Muse .
该公司已在菲律宾的iOS和Android平台上线Waddle World。这款应用由社交媒体顾问马特·纳瓦拉发现，用户可以挑选并养育一只虚拟宠物，给它喂食，和它玩耍。
The company has launched Waddle World in the Philippines on both iOS and Android. The app, spotted by social media consultant Matt Navarra , lets you pick and grow a virtual pet, feed it, and play with it. We have reached out to Meta for a comment on wider availability, and will update this piece if we hear back.

Basically, Tamagotchi meets ChatGPT. Another interesting experiment from Meta as it explores AI companions. Would you use this? iOS: https://t.co/Z0mh1ggx9q Android: https://t.co/isq6HnwoxE pic.twitter.com/4cuklTNB8v — Matt Navarra (@MattNavarra) October 27, 2026 Meta’s description of the app indicates that it doesn’t want the app to be a habit builder. The company’s page also says that the app is not a chatbot, and is flagged as suitable for users older than 18.
应用描述写道：“Waddle World是一个温馨的16位世界，你的像素宠物就生活在那里。孵化一只虚拟宠物，随时来访，让它慢慢了解你。没有压力，没有需要守护的连续打卡，没有要追逐的分数——只是在你一天的空隙里，给你一处温暖的小小逃离。”
“Waddle World is a cozy 16-bit world where your pixel pet lives. Hatch a virtual pet, visit whenever you like, and let it get to know you. No pressure, no streaks to protect, no scores to chase — just a warm little escape in the cracks of your day,” the app’s description reads.
“不是聊天机器人。不是助手。不是生产力工具。它是一只宠物，也是一个地方。待两分钟或二十分钟——它都会很开心。”
“Not a chatbot. Not an assistant. Not a productivity tool. It’s a pet, and a place. Stay two minutes or twenty — it’ll be happy either way.”
这款应用还兼作日记，让用户通过语音或文字描述自己的一天。宠物会倾听用户，并以自己的口吻把这段记录写成一篇带涂鸦的日记条目。该应用还设有只需几分钟就能玩的小游戏，并可根据它对用户的了解，每周给你发送一封电子邮件。
The app also doubles as a journal, letting users describe their day through voice or text. The pet listens to the user and writes up the note in its own voice as an entry with a doodle. The app also features mini-games that you can play over a few minutes, and can send you a weekly email based on what it learned about you.
Meta或许想避开打造伴侣类应用，因为Character.AI和OpenAI等公司已面临诉讼，指控其产品对青少年造成伤害。
Meta may be wanting to stay away from building companion apps, given companies like Character.AI and OpenAI have faced lawsuits that allege their products caused harm to teenagers.
迄今为止，这家社交媒体巨头已推出多款以人工智能为核心的应用，例如可让你凭感觉编写游戏的Pocket，以及可让你快速生成视频的Vibes。除了虚拟宠物，一些公司还尝试打造硬件AI宠物。
Until now, the social media giant has released AI-centric apps like Pocket, which lets you vibe-code games , and Vibes, which let you quickly generate videos . Besides virtual pets, some companies have also tried making hardware AI pets .
