Paper apps for phones that fold.

Paper & Hinge is a tiny studio making two iPhone apps around the fold of the new iPhone Duo. Both work on every iPhone. On the Duo, the hinge joins in.

Our apps

Foldle

Daily Fold Puzzle

Each day there’s a new origami silhouette. Fold a square of paper to match it, then share how many folds it took without giving the answer away.

A flipbook pad bound with red tape. The top page shows a red ball bouncing, with faint copies of where it was in the two frames before, and the bottom corner of the page curls up, ready to flip. 3 4 5 6 1 2 3

Riffle

Flipbook Animator

Draw frame by frame with onion skin, then close the phone to play your flipbook, like thumbing through a real one. Export it as a video or a GIF.

More about Riffle

Made for the fold. Fine without it.

iPhone Duo has a hinge, so we gave it something to do. Every other iPhone gets the same apps, with a drag wherever the Duo has a fold.

On iPhone Duo

In Foldle, choose where to fold, then fold the phone and the paper folds with it. In Riffle, close the phone slowly and your drawings flick past like pages under your thumb.

Hinge controls arrive in a free update shortly after launch. Until then, dragging works everywhere, including on iPhone Duo.

On any iPhone

Drag a corner to make a fold. Drag the page edge to riffle. Everything the hinge does, a finger can do too, on any iPhone with iOS 26 or later.
