About Fold & Squish: Butterfly Paint

Fold & Squish is the folded-paper butterfly painting from school, with paint that behaves like the real thing: thick and wet, it spreads when you press it, mixes where colors touch and leaves fine veins as the page peels apart. You paint with a brush, splats, drips, a finger or a magic straw, fold again over the top to add layers, and start from faint pencil guides such as a butterfly, an owl or a flower, and every painting is taped up on a gallery wall. On iPad, Apple Pencil paints while your fingers smudge. It’s free with every tool, nine colors and room for six paintings; the one-time Sparkle Pack adds glitter, rainbow paint, every guide and unlimited paintings. There are no ads, accounts or tracking.

On the iPhone Duo, the phone is the paper. Paint one half of the open page, fold the phone shut and the painting folds with it, rub the cover to squish the paint, and unfold it to find the mirror print. On other iPhones and iPad, a Fold button folds the page for you. Fountain Interactive also made Tiny Computers.

Evidence reviews

What we checked, when, and what the evidence establishes. Each record preserves the support label at that check.

  1. · Simulator screenshots reviewed

    Simulator verified · iphone-duo

    Checked the press kit's six iPhone Duo screenshots, unframed at 2853 × 2007 pixels, the size of the simulator's open display: half a butterfly painted beside the dashed fold line, the mirrored butterfly print, glitter and rainbow paint, paint blown about with the straw, an owl pencil guide, and the gallery wall. The tool column ends in a Fold your iPhone! prompt.

    Poses shown: Open. These are observations of the evidence, not a test of every interaction.

    App version: Not recorded in this evidence. Environment: iPhone Duo simulator.

    The app hides the status bar, so the simulator is told by the exact capture size. Folding the phone and squishing on the cover appear only in the press kit's renders and the trailer, which is rendered too. No app or Xcode version is given, and no build was tested.
