Petit
Petit is a free iPhone widget app that pins Ethereum NFTs to your Home Screen and Lock Screen, tracking collection floor prices, ETH rates and gas fees from a public wallet address — no wallet connection required.
What is Petit?
Petit is an iOS widget app built entirely around Ethereum NFTs, published under the pseudonym chunye.eth and released on 24/09/2022. Its home page promise is blunt: “The easiest way to build a NFT Widget on your iPhone in seconds.” On the App Store it sits in the Entertainment category, under the subtitle “Pin your NFTs on HomeScreen”.
The site announces four blocks of features. The first is pinning: you link your Ethereum accounts, configure the widget inside the app, and the chosen NFT moves to your iPhone Home Screen. The second is price tracking — collection floor price, Ethereum rate, gas fees, “and more…”. The third is account watching: you can follow someone else’s NFT account by simply typing their public Ethereum address. The fourth is the Lock Screen widget introduced with iOS 16. Later releases added more widget types: NFT Ranking (1.3.1, 28/10/2022), NFT Mint Ranking (1.4.0, 05/11/2022) and NFT Collection Listings (1.5.0, 27/11/2022).
The economics are simple. Since version 1.3.0, dated 24/10/2022, the release notes state that “all features are free NOW and No ADs”. The tone is community-first throughout: “Build for the NFT community”, with release notes signed “GM, my family!”.
The scope is narrow, and its limits matter as much as its features. Petit claims no AI capability of any kind: it generates nothing, predicts nothing and recommends nothing, it displays market data. It carries no transactional feature either — no buying, no selling, no minting, no signed wallet connection. One chain is supported, Ethereum, and no other blockchain is mentioned. Target devices are iPhone and iPod touch on iOS 15 or later; the listing also allows the app to run on Apple Silicon Macs (macOS 12+) and Apple Vision (visionOS 1.0+), with Apple’s own caveat “Designed for iPhone. Not verified for macOS”. The download weighs 50.2 MB and the interface exists in English only.
Measurable traction is thin: a single App Store rating, at 5.0 out of 5. The website is one English page with no about, contact or pricing section, and the social presence amounts to Twitter/X @0xpetit and a Discord server. The last release is dated 27/11/2022 — roughly three years and nine months without an update as of 16/08/2026.

When to use Petit / When not to
A quick filter to help you decide if Petit is the right fit.
When to use Petit
- Ethereum NFT collectors who want to see the pieces they hold without opening a marketplace
- NFT traders who check collection floor prices and gas fees several times a day
- Community managers of NFT projects following mints, rankings and collection listings
- Artists and creators who have minted a collection and want to keep an eye on how it is priced
- iPhone owners who customise their Home and Lock Screens and want a non-technical setup, since a public address is all the app asks for

- Holders of NFTs on any chain other than Ethereum, which is the only network named on the site and in the App Store listing
- Anyone wanting to buy, sell or mint: Petit only displays data and documents no transactional feature at all
- Anyone looking for an actual AI tool: no generation, prediction, recommendation or assistant capability is claimed anywhere
- Businesses and professional users: no API, no team account, no DPA, no SLA, no identified company or postal address, and no new release since 27/11/2022

Pros & Cons
Pros
- Entirely free since version 1.3.0, with every feature included and no paid tier
- No advertising, stated both on the home page and in the release notes
- No wallet to connect: a public address is enough, so no signature is requested and no key is exposed
- The privacy policy states that the address you enter stays on your device and is not collected by the publisher
- The App Store privacy card declares “Data Not Collected”
- Quick to set up, on native iOS widget mechanics, and rated 4+ on the App Store
- Lock Screen widgets supported from iOS 16
Cons
- No update since version 1.5.0 of 27/11/2022 — roughly three years and nine months of silence as of 16/08/2026
- iOS only: no Android app and no web version; Ethereum is the only chain supported and the interface exists in English alone
- The publisher cannot be identified: the pseudonym chunye.eth, an App Store copyright reading “Petit Inc.” with no verifiable entity behind it, no company, no postal address and a single gmail.com address as the only written channel
- No GDPR mention anywhere, no user right described, no DPA, and a privacy policy produced by a template generator rather than written for the product
- The App Store “Data Not Collected” declaration contradicts the Log Data section of the privacy policy, which describes IP address, device and OS data collected through third-party products
- A single App Store review, so no usable reliability signal; and the home page advertises “Start your Free Trial” while the app is entirely free, a contradiction nothing on the site resolves
- No API, no export and nothing designed for professional use; the terms let the publisher charge for the service, discontinue it or terminate access without notice, and nothing is published about data hosting or the source of the prices shown
Pricing & Plans
Petit is free of charge. The App Store listing shows the price as “Free”, the home page announces free and advertising-free use, and the release notes for version 1.3.0, dated 24/10/2022, state: “From this version, all features are free NOW and No ADs.” No in-app purchase, no subscription and no paid tier is documented, and the website carries no pricing page, so there is no lowest paid entry point to quote. One contractual reservation applies: the terms state that the publisher reserves “the right to make changes to the app or to charge for its services, at any time and for any reason”, adding that no charge would be made “without making it very clear to you exactly what you’re paying for”.
Data, GDPR & hosting
A consolidated view of how Petit handles your data.
GDPR overview
There is no GDPR mention at all. A full-text search across every page collected — home page, privacy policy, terms and App Store listing — returns no occurrence of “GDPR”, “RGPD” or “General Data Protection Regulation”. No data subject right is named: no access, no rectification, no erasure, no portability, no objection. No legal basis is stated, no controller is designated, and there is no DPO, no Article 27 EU representative, no data processing agreement and no formal subprocessor list. What exists instead is a short privacy policy effective 22/09/2022, openly generated from a template (privacypolicytemplate.net, modified by App Privacy Policy Generator), a single minors clause — “These Services do not address anyone under the age of 13”, which follows the US COPPA threshold rather than European law — a named list of two third-party services, and one address, 0xpetit@gmail.com, for any privacy question.
Who owns the data?
Intellectual property stays with the publisher: the app and “all the trademarks, copyright, database rights, and other intellectual property rights related to it, still belong to chunye.eth”. On personal data the documents contradict each other: the privacy policy says the address you enter is “retained on your device and is not collected by me in any way”, while the terms say the app “stores and processes personal data that you have provided to us”. Log Data (IP address, device name, OS version, time of use) is gathered through third-party products on errors and reaches Google Analytics for Firebase and Firebase Crashlytics, both “obligated not to disclose or use the information for any other purpose”. The App Store card declares “Data Not Collected”. Nothing claims rights over user content.
Reuse rights
The terms grant no reuse licence of any kind. You are explicitly forbidden to “copy or modify the app, any part of the app, or our trademarks in any way”, to extract or translate the source code, and to produce derivative versions of the app. Nothing restricts what you do with your own inputs — the public Ethereum address you type remains yours — or with the figures you read on your own screen, but nothing authorises redistribution either: the prices are supplied by outside sources (“we do rely on third parties to provide information to us”) and no right to republish them is granted. The publisher also disclaims responsibility for what those figures are worth, accepting “no liability for any loss, direct or indirect” incurred by relying on that functionality, and reserves the right to discontinue the service and terminate access without notice.
Data retention & training
Hosting summary
No hosting country or region is published. Neither the privacy policy nor the terms names a data centre, a jurisdiction or a residency commitment, and there are no standard contractual clauses and no documented transfer framework. The model claimed instead is local: “The information that I request will be retained on your device and is not collected by me in any way.” The only named third parties are Google Analytics for Firebase and Firebase Crashlytics, which receive the Log Data gathered “through third-party products” when an error occurs; the jurisdiction of that Google infrastructure is not specified anywhere. A single sentence of the privacy policy refers to deletion “from our servers” in the case of a child under 13 — the only allusion to a server in the whole documentation, and it carries no location. For completeness, the website itself resolves to 76.76.21.21, an anycast edge address in AS16509 (Amazon) geolocated in the United States; that describes how the site is delivered, not where any application data would sit.
Things to keep in mind
Risks and trade-offs to weigh before adopting Petit.
- The app has not been updated since 27/11/2022: a widget that quietly stops refreshing can keep showing a stale floor price without warning you
- The domain is registered only until 14/09/2026 — if the site goes offline, the privacy policy and the terms disappear with it
- The prices displayed come from third parties who are never named, and the publisher accepts “no liability for any loss, direct or indirect” suffered by relying on that functionality: a financial decision taken on a widget figure rests on nothing verifiable
- A floor price permanently visible on the Home Screen encourages compulsive checking and an anxious relationship to the market; on the Lock Screen it also exposes what you hold to anyone glancing at your phone
- Typing a public Ethereum address into a third-party app ties that address to a device, and the publisher here is pseudonymous, with no company, no postal address and a single gmail account as the only point of contact
- The App Store “Data Not Collected” declaration and the Log Data section of the privacy policy contradict each other, and nothing lets a user work out which one actually applies
- The terms allow the publisher to discontinue the service, terminate access without notice and start charging at any time; and NFTs remain a volatile, illiquid asset, about whose market depth a price widget says nothing
Setup & Integrations
Technical difficulty
Very easy. Installation is a standard App Store download, with no sign-up and no account to create. Nothing has to be connected: you type in a public Ethereum address instead of linking and signing with a wallet, so the only real hurdle is knowing where to find that address. Placing the widget uses native iOS mechanics — long press the Home Screen, tap the plus button, choose Petit — and the Lock Screen widget requires iOS 16. There is no API key and no technical configuration at all. For anyone who already holds an Ethereum wallet, it takes minutes.

Should you pick Petit?
Petit does one narrow thing: it puts an Ethereum NFT, a floor price or a gas figure on an iPhone screen. Within those limits it keeps its original promise, it asks for no wallet connection, and it costs nothing — every feature has been free and advertising-free since October 2022.
What it is not is an AI tool. Nothing in the app generates, predicts or interprets anything: it displays market data supplied by third parties the publisher never names, and the publisher explicitly disclaims responsibility for the accuracy of what appears.
The larger reservation is abandonment. The last release, 1.5.0, is dated 27/11/2022, and the domain registration runs only to 14/09/2026. An unmaintained price widget is not neutral: it can go on showing a stale figure without signalling it, and if the site goes down the privacy policy and the terms go with it. Data governance is minimal too — a pseudonymous publisher, three different identities for one editor, no GDPR mention of any kind, and a privacy policy produced by an online template generator, contradicted on one point by the App Store privacy card.
The practical verdict follows from that. Petit suits an Ethereum collector on an iPhone who wants a passive, free, largely decorative display and who treats the numbers shown as indicative rather than authoritative. It does not suit professional use, it does not suit anyone holding assets on another chain or on Android, and it does not suit anyone who needs an identified publisher, a maintained product and some form of recourse. Install it as a widget, not as a source of truth.
