Descriptions
Short (one line)
Made for iPhone Duo: fold the hinge to 75°, dial a lock with it, read codes off the cover screen, drag cables across the fold. The Experience is almost ready. Almost.
Medium (one paragraph)
Made for iPhone Duo. Fold the hinge to an exact angle. Dial a combination lock with it. Shut the phone to read a code off the cover screen, then open it to type it in. Drag a cable across the fold into the router. Every setup step spreads across both pages, and the light of the Experience leaks out of the crease itself. Plays on every iPhone too. User Agreement is a frantic microgame party where every game is a setup chore, and the thing you're setting up never quite begins.

Made for iPhone Duo. Fold the hinge to an exact angle. Dial a combination lock with it. Shut the phone to read a code off the cover screen, then open it to type it in. Drag a cable across the fold into the router. Every setup step spreads across both pages, and the light of the Experience leaks out of the crease itself. Plays on every iPhone too. User Agreement is a frantic microgame party where every game is a setup chore, and the thing you're setting up never quite begins. Agree to the terms. Prove you're not a robot. Join the 2.4 GHz network because the smart kettle only speaks 2.4 GHz. Pick the right Bluetooth device from a list of near-identical names. Say "Hey Lumen". Match the light bulb's colour. Dial in the thermostat. Wave your phone in a figure of eight. Find the dead pixel. Reject every cookie. Free up 4 terabytes, but whatever you do, don't delete the Experience. Each step lasts a few seconds. A command slams onto the screen, a fuse burns down, and you do the chore. Fail five and setup times out. Win five in a row and you get some patience back. - 82 setup steps across sections that get steadily more obscure: Network, Accounts & Security, Devices, Voice Assistant, Smart Home, Sensors & Calibration, Display & Sound, Hinge, Personalization and Legal, then Regional Compliance, Fold Insurance, Settings Behind the Settings and worse. - Setup screens from every era, 16 in all: an early-2000s wizard, a 1992 installer, a BIOS utility, a green-LCD candybar phone, a click-wheel music player, a router's admin page, a terminal, a cookie banner. All of them original parody. - The bar only ever goes up. 99%. 99.6%. 99.93%. Just one more thing. - Every run is shuffled: section order, steps and screens. Today's Setup is the same run for everyone that day. - Your answers build a profile that setup remembers, and quotes back at you. - 20 badges to earn across runs, and a report card to share when setup times out. - Uses the real hardware: tilt, shake, spin, the barometer, the proximity sensor, the volume buttons, the microphone, screenshots, brightness and haptics. Every sensor step has an on-screen fallback, so it plays on any iPhone. MADE FOR THE FOLD On iPhone Duo the hinge is a controller: FOLD! to an angle, RESTART! by closing and reopening, UNLOCK! a dial, PUMP IT!, LAPTOP MODE!, lay it flat. Read the manual by swiping pages over the fold. Close the Duo to pause, and the cover nags you with reminders and shows how far you are from being ready. On other iPhones the hinge steps become on-screen dials and sliders, so everyone can play. PRIVATE AND FREE No accounts, no ads, no tracking, no internet needed. The camera, microphone and motion are optional, used only on your phone, and nothing is recorded or sent.
