The islands featured in Hello Kitty Island Adventure are stunning, and you won’t just have to rely on your memory to enjoy them. Early in the game, you will acquire a camera that’s initially meant for snapping photos of Gudetama scattered throughout the area.
This guide will explain how to unlock and use the camera. We’ll discuss what subjects you can photograph, as well as how to utilize Photo Ops. Overall, the camera is user-friendly and a fun way to showcase your character alongside your favorite locals.
How to Unlock the Camera
To unlock the camera, you’ll need to reach friendship level one with Pochacco. This is the very first friendship tier, and it’s quite easy to achieve. Just chat with Pochacco and offer him a couple of gifts to reach this level and unlock the quest titled Gudetama Snap.
Pochacco is located to the right of the Resort Plaza, so he won’t be hard to find. To build your friendship with him, simply give him a few pieces of tofu. This is considered a one-heart gift that you can earn by giving items to Hello Kitty.
This quest is straightforward, as it requires you to take a picture of a Gudetama figure. You won’t have to wander far to find one; once you do, the camera will be unlocked, allowing you to use it freely.
How to Use the Camera
To get started with the camera, first, select it from your circular toolbar. This will make the camera icon appear on the bottom right side of your screen. From there, you can click the icon to enter camera mode.
In camera mode, you’ll see a couple of additional options. Above the camera icon, you’ll find two new buttons. The left button opens up a variety of emotes for poses, while the right icon makes your character face the camera.
At the bottom of the screen, there are two more buttons. The leftmost one makes all characters in view face the camera, including any residents or guests present. Meanwhile, the rightmost button copies your character’s pose for the nearby NPC.
When you click the camera icon, a picture will be taken, and you’ll then see a few choices.

You can utilize the camera to capture images of nearly anything. Some quests will ask you to take specific photos, but you can also take pictures just for fun. We enjoy posing with characters around the island and saving those memories!
How to Use Photo Ops
Photo Ops are specific areas around the island where you can capture moments with residents and visitors. To unlock these locations, you first need to complete the quest Picture Day, which becomes available after finishing a few other quests:
- Meet the Island Beings
- Gudetama Snap
- Enraging Ruins
After acquiring Picture Day, your task will be to take photos of My Melody and then head to the southern beach at the Seaside Resort. After completing several photo-taking activities, My Melody will instruct you to explore other Photo Op locations in Spooky Swamp, Gemstone Mountain, Mount Hothead, and Rainbow Reef.
Luckily, you won’t have to search high and low for these spots. They will be marked on your map with a black baseball cap featuring a camera icon. Head to these indicated spots to snap your pictures.
To invite characters for a photo, just speak with the nearby Null (the one wearing a black hat). You will then be able to choose which characters you’d like to include in your photo. Some may be busy and unable to participate, but you’re sure to find a few willing to pose with you.
