Summary

“	You can play mini games, adopt pet puffles, experience new parties, make friends, and more!	”
	— Club Penguin summarising the app

Both versions of the game offer a new art style towards Club Penguin; turning the traditional sprite artwork into a 3D model which is used by penguins and puffles. In addition, they both allow you to play all of Club Penguin's games (however on Android the game does not host Card-Jitsu Snow).

Features

1. Edit Penguin: Can edit your penguin's clothing.
2. Buddy List: Brings up your Buddy List, and allows you to throw a snowball at your friends. You can also accept or deny friend requests through the app.
3. Penguin Style: Can buy clothes from a Penguin Style catalog, including mobile exclusive items.
4. Blog: Can read the latest posts from the What's New Blog.
5. Videos: Can watch the latest videos from Club Penguin's YouTube channel. Was removed in version 1.2.
6. Games: Can play Club Penguin minigames such as Puffle Rescue, Puffle Roundup, Ice Fishing, Pufflescape, Sushi Drop, Card-Jitsu Snow, Jetpack Boost, Bean Counters, Pizzatron 3000, and Smoothie Smash.
7. 3D artwork: A new type of penguin sprite was shown in WaddleOn Episode 6, and in the corner a small print stated "My Penguin footage shown." This sprite is seen when waddling around in igloos. It took the team one year to make every single item in 3D.
8. Igloos: Can edit and visit other igloos.
9. Rooms: Can visit rooms on the island such as the Town Center, Coffee Shop, Dance Club, Clothes Shop, Dock, Beach, Lighthouse, Beacon, Snow Forts, Pizza Parlor, Skatepark, and Mine Shack.
10. Jump to Friend: Can Jump to Friends by clicking on their player card and then clicking on a little curvy white arrow.
