- 📦Fold by Fold updated to version 1.5More ways to track your folds—and a little more fun with Hingelet.
YOUR FOLDS, YOUR WAY
• Choose Openings only or Openings + closes. A full open-and-close cycle adds 1 or 2 folds, depending on your choice. Existing history stays unchanged.
• Switching from another app? Import your previous fold count into your lifetime total without changing daily stats or timers.
A CLEARER VIEW OF YOUR DAY
• Activity Calendar now has its own navigation page. Browse months and tap a day to explore your activity.
• New visual day overviews show a large fold count, unfolded-time ring, evenly sized session-stat cards, and an hourly activity chart.
• Review recorded opening and closing times, average and longest sessions, and expandable completed-session details.
• Weekly insights compare the last seven completed days with the previous week and let you share a recap.
A SIMPLE NEW WIDGET
• The Simple layout shows just today’s folds and total unfolded time, including your current recorded session.
• Available in Small, Medium, and Large, alongside Classic, Dashboard, Focus, and Weekly. Compare them in the in-app previews.
MORE PERSONALITY, MORE PLAY
• Hingelet has soft, wiggly ears, little bounces, double blinks, and side glances. Tap him for a smile, giggle, or laugh.
• Hingelet welcomes you to the updated What’s new screen with a happy talking animation.
• Play Hinge Hoops: aim with your Duo’s hinge, then tap Shoot to launch from Hingelet’s back ear. Try bank shots, moving hoops, saved best scores, and optional basket haptics. Demo mode lets you aim with a slider.
• Reduce Motion is supported.
Your saved history, colors, and existing Shortcuts stay in place. Updated translations and backups support the new features.
Automatic counting and timing require iPhone Duo and separate Opened → Record a Fold and Closed → Record a Close Shortcuts automations. In Openings + closes, a close counts only after a recorded opening; duplicate closes do not add folds. Live hinge play requires iPhone Duo with iOS 27.1 or later. iOS controls widget refresh timing.… more - ✏️Fold by Fold added 7 languages+ DE + ES + FR + JA + KO + ZH + ZH

- 📦Fold by Fold updated to version 1.4Meet Hingelet, fresh widget styles, and colors that follow your day.
MEET HINGELET
• A new Hinge tab shows your Duo’s live hinge angle with a little folding friend.
• Hingelet gets sleepy, surprised, or happy as the angle changes, with gentle transitions and occasional blinking.
• Try the clearly labeled demo slider without folding your phone. The angle number sits on the right for easier viewing while opening.
• Live hinge readings require iPhone Duo with iOS 27.1 or later and are available while the screen is active. Reduce Motion is supported.
COLORS THAT FOLLOW YOUR DAY
• New automatic widget colors: Hourly, Daily, Weekly, Time of day, and Daylight.
• Daylight gradually moves from warm dawn colors through daytime blue, sunset coral, evening violet, and midnight blue in scheduled steps.
• Choose four preset or saved custom colors for rotating schedules, or keep automatic colors off.
• Preview the day with a time slider. Your app theme stays separate, and no location permission is needed.
MORE WAYS TO WIDGET
• Weekly joins Classic, Dashboard, and Focus, with lifetime totals, seven daily bars, and today highlighted.
• Choose Original or a frosted Glass appearance for each widget.
• Cleaner, aligned previews compare all four layouts in Small, Medium, and Large sizes.
MORE LANGUAGES, CLEARER SETUP
• Added Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Spanish, French, and German for the app and widgets.
• A widget setup checklist explains how to add, configure, and compare a real Home Screen widget.
• A stronger opening check requires a fresh signal and exactly one new count; old sessions and manual history changes cannot stand in for a new test.
• Setup help is grouped under Counting & widgets, with preview controls under Appearance.
Your history, saved colors, settings, and existing Shortcuts actions are preserved. Automatic counting and timing still require separate Opened → Record a Fold and Closed → Record a Close shortcuts. iOS controls widget refresh timing, so scheduled colors may appear late. Glass is a frosted style; wallpaper-aware Clear appearance is controlled by iOS.… more - ✏️Fold by Fold: description updated· 10 countries

• Keep a favorite color or schedule Hourly, Daily, Weekly, or Time of day changes using four preset or saved custom colors.

MEET HINGELET
A playful Hinge tab shows the live angle while the screen is active, with a little friend whose expressions change as you fold. Try the clearly labeled demo slider. Reduce Motion is supported. This mode does not itself add folds or change session timers; your Shortcuts continue as usual.
CLEARER SETUP, MORE LANGUAGES
The widget checklist explains adding, editing, and comparing widgets. Separate setup and troubleshooting help covers counting and timing, with a guided fresh-signal test.
App and widgets support English, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Spanish, French, and German.
COUNTING AND TIMING HAVE SEPARATE SETUP
Connect Record a Fold to an Opened-only shortcut. For timing, create a separate Closed-only shortcut with Record a Close. Both must run automatically and while locked. Readiness reflects received actions, not an inspection of automation settings or physical posture. Standard iPhone/iPad do not provide fold triggers.
Optional daily goals and local milestone alerts. Export daily history as CSV, save a JSON backup, and restore with a recovery copy.
