Club Penguin App

The **Club Penguin App** (formerly named **My Penguin**) was a free mobile application for *Club Penguin*, fully released on May 9, 2013 for Apple devices and December 18, 2014 for Android devices. The app was compatible with any of the aforementioned brands with operating systems of either iOS 7 or Android 4.0.3 and above. In addition to being released for iPads on May 9, 2013, the app was available to download for iPhone and iPod on April 16, 2014.

The app was discontinued and removed from the App Store and Google Play on February 27, 2017. Unlike other discontinued Club Penguin mobile games, such as the Puffle Launch App, no features of the app can be accessed beyond the title screen.

> Club Penguin summarizing the app

Both versions of the game offered a new art style towards Club Penguin; turning the traditional sprite artwork into a 3D model which was used by penguins and puffles. In addition, they both allowed you to play most of the games from the desktop version (however on Android the game does not host Card-Jitsu Snow).

## Features

1. **Edit Penguin:** Can edit your penguin's clothing.
2. **Buddy List:** Brings up your Buddy List, and allows you to throw a snowball at your friends. You can also accept or deny friend requests through the app.
3. **Penguin Style:** Can buy clothes from a Penguin Style catalog, including mobile exclusive items.
4. **Blog:** Can read the latest posts from the What's New Blog.
5. **Videos:** Can watch the latest videos from Club Penguin's YouTube channel. Was removed in version 1.2.
6. **Games:** Can play Club Penguin minigames such as Puffle Rescue, Puffle Roundup, Ice Fishing, Pufflescape, Sushi Drop (No longer available), Card-Jitsu Snow, Jetpack Boost, Bean Counters, Pizzatron 3000, and Smoothie Smash.
7. **3D artwork:** A new type of penguin sprite was shown in WaddleOn Episode 6, and in the corner a small print stated "My Penguin footage shown." This sprite is seen when waddling around in igloos. It took the team one year to make every single item in 3D.
8. **Igloos:** Can edit and visit other igloos.
9. **Rooms:** Can visit rooms on the island such as the Town Center, Coffee Shop, Dance Club, Clothes Shop, Dock, Beach, Lighthouse, Beacon, Snow Forts, Pizza Parlor, Skatepark, Ski Village, Ski Lodge, Pet Shop, Puffle Park, Puffle Hotel and Mine Shack.
10. **Jump to Friend:** Can Jump to Friends by clicking on their player card and then clicking on a little curvy white arrow.
