About Shimeji: Screen Buddies

Heads up! We’ve temporarily reduced the mascot library to remove third-party IP and all user submitted characters. For now, only our original Super Shimeji are available. We’re working hard to repopulate the library ASAP with new original characters that are higher resolution and better than before. Thanks for sticking with us! 💙 Shimeji: Screen Buddies is a free animated mascots app that has already reached over 35M downloads worldwide! 🥳 Bring your screen to life with cute animated characters that walk, climb, and play on top of your apps.
