Through walking, growing Pikmin, and doing other tasks, the player can increase in [[level]]. Doing this unlocks additional features over time, such as [[expedition]]s and [[Decor Pikmin]]. [[Badge (Pikmin Bloom)|Badge]]s can also be unlocked by completing certain criteria.

The main screen of the game takes place on a map of the real world centered around the player, who is displayed as a [[Mii]] character. This map displays roads and water bodies, and also [[Big Flower]]s, flowers planted by other players with the [[flower planting]] feature, and items obtainable through [[expedition]]s. As the player walks around, the Mii will move and so will the current [[squad]] of Pikmin following the Mii. From this screen, buttons on the right allow access to use a [[Detector]], toggle flower planting mode, view the Planter Pack, and enter a mode where the Pikmin squad can be viewed close-up. In this close-up mode, Pikmin will idle around, and can be ordered to stand in a grid by holding a [[whistle]] button. The player can feed [[nectar]] to Pikmin, which will upgrade their [[maturity]]. Giving nectar to a flowered Pikmin will cause its flowers to glow, and by tapping on a glowing flower, the Pikmin will revert to a normal flower and [[petal]]s will be obtained. This view has a button to enter an AR mode, which will use the device's camera to project the Pikmin onto a surface in the real world, where photographs can be taken of them.

The [[lifelog]] feature allows the player to look back on their walks with the app over time, displaying things like each day's step count, the [[postcard]]s received that day, and the [[daily lookback]] feature. The game also contains a [[shop]] where items can be bought for in-game [[coin]]s or real money.
