The game has a number of features which allow multiple players to interact with each other. Flowers planted with the [[flower planting]] feature are visible to other players by default. If multiple players are planting in an area at the same time, and mutually have the "with others" switch on, they can see each others avatars walking. Players anonymously collaborate over time to bloom [[Big Flower]]s, making the game a kind of multiplayer idle game. [[Mushroom challenge|Mushrooms]] can be attacked by up to 20 people (anyone past the first 5 require the use of a mushroom recharge ticket) at once. There is a [[weekly challenge]] feature where players can collaborate to complete a certain goal together. Players can add other players as [[friend]]s, and send [[postcard]]s to them. | The game has a number of features which allow multiple players to interact with each other.

''Pikmin Bloom'' encourages players to look back over their day with the [[lifelog]] feature. This shows the tasks the player has done in the app over time. At the end of the day, a [[daily lookback]] cutscene will occur, which shows where the player walked that day, and allows the player to write a short journal entry. Every Sunday, there is also a [[weekly lookback]], which shows a summary of how much the player walked compared to the previous week, what places they visited, and a "photo of the week" uploaded to the lifelog during the week. | ''Pikmin Bloom'' encourages players to look back over their day with the [[lifelog]] feature.
