Radar Map
- Main article: Radar.
The Radar Map is the default app on the tablet that allows the player to view the area from above, much like in previous Pikmin games.
Status Report
The Status Report app keeps track of the Pikmin totals and other relevant details in the current area. It shows the total count of all Pikmin types currently available, how many were grown or lost that day, the progress of the current area (by percentage), and any other recent developments (such as rescues made, Sparklium found, and raw materials collected).
Missions
- Main article: Missions (Pikmin 4).
The Missions app catalogs the player's current objectives. These are kept in two different menus: Main Missions and Side Missions. At any time, the player can choose to pin (or clear a pin) on any mission. This will make it appear in the bottom left corner at all time during gameplay.
ID Badges
The ID Badges app catalogs the ID badges of any Rescue Corps members, castaways, and/or leaflings found on PNF-404. While each are unlocked once that person has been rescued, characters who are confirmed to be stranded are preemptively listed with vacant slots, such as the missing Rescue Corps members and Captain Olimar.
Gear and Skills
The Gear and Skills app allows the player to manage any of the Rescue Gear or Pup Skills they have acquired. The Pup Skills are only listed, while any Rescue Gear can be equipped and unequipped from this app.
Rescue Journal
- Main article: Rescue Journal.
The Rescue Journal app catalogs a variety of helpful texts. These are mainly unlocked through progression and are sorted in several categories such as "Tips and Tricks" and "Shepherd Family History".
Voyage Log
- Main article: Pikmin 4 voyage log.
The Voyage Log app is the collection of notes written and sent by Olimar. These are unlocked as they become relevant to the player and can detail his findings on a variety of topics, like Pikmin behavior or environmental observations.
History and Stats
The History and Stats app keeps track of the player's progress in the story. The Summary tab has an up-to-date summary of past events, the Message Log lists the recent conversations from characters, and the Story Stats tab keeps track of the player's own statistics (such as play time, Pikmin lost, etc.).
