A few week ago we announced that Webkinz Classic will be returning to browsers in Q4 2025. To help keep you on top of how the project is going, we will be releasing updates showing our progress.
First, we want to clarify the release plan for our browser-based solution:
We will release on browsers for PC and Mac first. This will get players into the game the fastest. We will of course keep the existing PC/ Mac application version available and running for players who prefer to use it.
We will then complete the mobile version. The biggest challenge will be ensuring that Webkinz doesn’t rotate when a player holds their phone vertically. We expect that this period will take two months to complete.
This isn’t going to work
At this point we will begin addressing fixing bugs, adding back missing features, and working on our first new features in years. We are fixing a few small issues as part of our current conversion, but the real work will begin after we launch. We are already going through the process of prioritizing these fixes and features and thank all of our fans for giving us their feedback as to what they most want to see.
Now onto the video! Today we’ll see the Curio Shop, one of the many features not currently available in the Webkinz Classic mobile app, playing in a browser (Microsoft Edge was used). Arte is already talking, selling items and helping players find gems for the legendary Crown of Wonder! All the features you know and love. Check it out:

This makes me soooooo HAPPY! I am really excited to know that Webkinz Mobile will be better! At home I use my computer (which is easier to use), but when traveling or away from home, I will use the mobile app on my phone (Android). I do play the mobile app on my iPad, too. Will I be able to play the Classic version on my iPad? Just wondering. My heartfelt Thanks and many hugs of joy, to ALL the people who have made this happen! Thank you all so very much! You’ve made our entire Classic Webkinz Family Happy Beyond Reason! :-) Thank you!
This update will not change how the Webkinz mobile app works, but you will be able to access Webkinz through the browser on mobile, which would include iPad.
