Even though the original Tamagotchi Friends is by Bandai UK, Bandai America and Sync Beatz Entertainment (the company behind Tamagotchi L.i.f.e.) created the Tamagotchi Friends fashion line and Gotchi-fy app. The app allows users to create avatars of themselves and customize them with accessories that are worn by the Tamagotchi Friends characters. Their avatar will appear on a virtual Dream School student ID card. The app and corresponding interactive clothing line will release in the United States and Canada later in 2014. It is unknown if it will release in other countries as well.
