I've always tought Tamagotchis completely lose their charms once they are turned into colored, more cartoony characters. I know they always have been intended to be like this, but there's just something about the early Tamagotchis pixelated version that just screams "Tamagotchis" to me, while the full-color ones just made me feel less invested in them.

This app sure exists. It's not bad per se, but I think there's... Perhaps even too much, for a virtual pet.
Also too many events, timed events and paid elements that really make this app feel less like a Tamagotchi and more like a generic, early 2010s game.
