In Pikmin Bloom, the latest mobile app from Niantic and Nintendo, you can grow adorable Pikmin characters, make flowers bloom and keep track of your most precious memories, all through the simple act of walking.
Starting today, the latest version of the Pikmin Bloom mobile app introduces a flourishing garden’s worth of new features to help enhance the fun of your daily walks!
Some of the highlights of the new update include the following:
  • New Flower Planting Weekly Challenges
This new Weekly Challenge lets you team up with friends and work together toward a shared goal of planting flowers. You can choose to participate in a flower-planting challenge, a step challenge or both at the same time!
Additionally, all users who join a Flower Planting Weekly Challenge and complete it by the end of the day (local time) on July 24 can receive an in-app “Flower” T-shirt (one per player).
Other types of challenges are planned for the future, so stay tuned!

  • Invite Friends To Join Weekly Challenges
Looking for a unique way to reconnect with friends, no matter where they are? Want to dial up the fun in the family chat? You might like the new Invite Friend feature for Weekly Challenges – it makes it easier for your in-app friends to join you!
You can add more friends by clicking the “Friends” icon in the app, clicking again on the “Add Friend” icon and sharing your Friend Code or QR Code.

If you have been enjoying Pikmin Bloom, now is a great chance to stroll back in the app to see what all these new features have to offer. And if you have yet to experience Pikmin Bloom, your free download to help make your daily walks more fun is only a few taps away.
