Dynamic Island Supported Apps: Other Apps and Games

There aren’t many applications that make inventive use of the functionality as the iPhone 14 Pro is only now becoming available to users. You should nevertheless check out some pretty awesome Dynamic Island applications.

Hit the Island

Hit the island

Hit the Island is a fun game that takes the tried and true ‘Pong’ and transforms it into a fun little battle against your iPhone’s pill cutout. You have a paddle here that you can move around to whack the ball. Every time the ball hits the pill, you gain a point, and after every 10 points, the ball’s speed increases.

The paddle eventually gets smaller, and the ball occasionally even splits in half. If you’re scoring anything above 45 points, as shown in the leaderboard, you’ll likely be in the top 1% of players because the game becomes quite challenging after you pass the 30–40 point threshold. The game is free, and its fantastic haptics and entertaining gameplay make it a must-try for iPhone 14 Pro owners.

Apollo for Reddit

Apollo for reddit

Most Reddit users are familiar with Apollo. It’s one of the greatest third-party Reddit applications, with a plethora of features. The creator has now included a fun little Dynamic Island Zoo in the game. You may use this to “adopt” a pixel-pal animal that lives on top of your iPhone’s pill cutout. The default is a cat, but you may change it to a dog.

Additionally, the premium edition of the application must be unlocked to utilize other creatures, such as a fox and an axolotl. By the way, the island’s creatures don’t just sit around. They will move about when you use the app, sit, and even sleep—with a floating ‘Zzz’ to indicate sleep. It’s a fun way to use the island that doesn’t even interfere with the fantastic app experience.

Wrapping Up
