A list worth unfolding.

Why this exists

A new kind of iPhone needs a new kind of app, and the App Store has no category for “works on a foldable”. FoldHunt tracks whether apps work on iPhone Duo with dated evidence for every listing, explains what each one changed for the fold, and curates ideas that use the new screen. We review every submission by hand and show how each app was checked.

How listings are labelled

“Verified” means we have seen the app running: in screenshots or a screen recording, usually from its developer, or in a build we ran ourselves. Most of these checks were made in the iPhone Duo Simulator. When the latest one was on a real iPhone Duo, such as a developer’s recording made on the device, the label reads “Device verified” instead of “Simulator verified”. We haven’t tested apps on an iPhone Duo of our own.

An evidence review records its date, source, method and limitations. Screenshots or a recording of the app running are enough for “verified”. App Store release notes or a description that names iPhone Duo show that the update is out, and make it “App Store confirmed”. A written announcement, a mockup or a promotional animation confirms only what was published, and the app stays “Developer claimed”. Each reviewed listing shows exactly what was checked, and an unknown version stays unknown.

How ranking works

The hunt is ranked by heat, a score from what readers do with each app, game or tool: a page view adds 1, a click from its page or card to another site (its App Store page, say) 5, a play or click on an idea that shows it 3, an upvote 10 and an email follow 15. Views and clicks add at most 200 a day to any one item, and so do upvotes and follows. We show heat rather than upvote counts, and mark the few with the most heat in the last few days as Trending. Upvotes are one per person per item, no account needed. We never store IP addresses, only a salted hash to stop repeat votes. Launch partners are ranked by heat like everyone else. Ideas on the wall gather heat the same way, and the wall’s Hot sort shows those with the most in the last few days.

Email updates & what we count

On a claimed app’s page you can ask for one email when we confirm it, and on an idea’s page one email if it turns into an app or game. We first send a link to confirm the address is yours. Each follow gets that one email and nothing more, and every email has a link to stop all of them. We use your address for nothing else and never share it.

To learn what readers find useful, we count page views and clicks per page and per day. We don’t use cookies or keep anything about who you are: no IP addresses, no visitor IDs, only the running totals.

Independence

FoldHunt is not affiliated with Apple Inc. or with the developers of the apps we list, with one exception: FoldHunt’s editor makes Flicit, and says so wherever FoldHunt mentions it. iPhone is a trademark of Apple Inc., registered in the U.S. and other countries.

Ideas wall & credits

The ideas wall collects concepts, sketches and demos that other people have made. Every idea belongs to its creator. X posts are drawn from X’s public embed data. Their photos and videos load from X through foldhunt.com, so privacy blockers don’t hide them; we don’t keep copies, and a deleted post and its media leave the wall within the hour. YouTube videos use YouTube’s own player, and we only host images we have permission to show. The editor’s comments are our own opinion.

If you made something on the wall and want it credited differently or removed, email hello@foldhunt.com. We’ll handle it within two working days.

Other foldables

We’re starting with iPhone Duo, but FoldHunt is built for every foldable. Android book-style and flip phones are next.
