What is Mimimi?
A little friend who grows up with you
Mimimi is a soft, floppy-eared pet who lives in a cozy home and needs a friend. Feed it, give it a good scrub, tuck it in at night, and watch it grow from a wobbly baby into a grown-up over a few days.
Outside the front door there is a whole little world: a garden to grow, a lake to fish, a kitchen to cook in, a playground, and a Study Room where your child teaches Mimimi to count, sort and tell the time. It was made with (and thoroughly tested by) a five-year-old, for children aged about 4 to 7.
Would your child like a different look? A grown-up can swap Mimimi for Pip, a leafy sprout, or Luma, a little bird-like friend.

Things to do
Every day, something cozy
No timers, no fail screens, no rush. Just lots of little things to care for, grow and make.
Grow Garden
Dig, sow, water and pull up your veggies. Collect eggs from the hens, sell at the market and, in time, open the Field and the greenhouse.
The Fishing Lake
Row out in a little boat and see what bites. Thirty fish to find, ice fishing in winter, and a tank in the living room for your favourites.
The kitchen
Mix up to three ingredients, give it a stir and bake, boil or blend. New recipes to discover, and every wrong mix becomes a happy Surprise stew.
Draw, play and make music
Paint a picture for the wall, bang the drums, build a pillow fort, chase bubbles, play Fruit match and swing at the playground.
The Study Room
Counting, patterns, sorting, feelings, memory, weighing and telling the time. No words needed: your child teaches Mimimi, and the mistakes belong to the pet.
Dress-up and cozy homes
Hats, glasses, scarves and bold patterned coats, plus three homes to live in: Sage Nook, Clover Conservatory and Mooncloud Loft.

Mimimi is free to download. Mimimi Full is a single, optional, one-time purchase that opens the Fishing Lake, the big garden, the whole Study Room, the big wardrobe and more homes, plus every place we add later. It is offered only to grown-ups, behind a hold and a reading check. If you change phones, use Restore purchase in the grown-ups sheet.
Questions
Good to know
Can’t find your answer? The manual has more, or write to us at support@idlerobot.dev.
What age is Mimimi for?
Children aged about 4 to 7. The games are wordless, so children who can’t read yet can play on their own, and the Study Room adapts to an age you choose (4 to 7). Older brothers and sisters tend to love the garden and the lake too.
Is Mimimi free?
Yes, Mimimi is free to download. The free version includes Mimimi and all of its care, the home and living room, the playground, a starter garden patch, two Study Room objects and part of the wardrobe. Mimimi Full is one optional, one-time purchase for grown-ups that opens the rest. No price is ever shown to children.
Are there ads, subscriptions or in-app currency?
No ads, no subscriptions and no timers. Stars are earned by playing and can never be bought with money.
Could my child buy something by accident?
No. Your child never sees a price or a buy button: locked places simply wear a ribbon. The offer is only shown to a grown-up, after a 3-second hold and a short reading check, and then Google Play asks for its own confirmation (plus Family Link approval if the child’s account is supervised).
Why would Mimimi use the microphone?
Only for two optional games: talk-back, where Mimimi repeats what your child says in a squeaky voice, and calling, where Mimimi comes when it hears its name or two claps. Both are off until a grown-up switches them on in the grown-ups sheet. Sound is analysed on the device while the button is held. It is never recorded, saved or uploaded, and everything else works without it.
Does Mimimi need the internet or an account?
No. There are no accounts and no sign-in, and the game plays offline. The only time the app talks to anything is Google Play’s own purchase check.
Which languages does it speak?
English and Estonian (Eesti). Mimimi follows the phone’s language, and a grown-up can switch it any time in the grown-ups sheet. Finnish (Suomi) is next.
We got a new phone. What happens to Mimimi?
Your pet and its progress are saved only on the device, so we have no copy to move. Mimimi Full comes back on a new phone with Restore purchase in the grown-ups sheet, using the same Google account.
