Foldables - App Audit
Be first on the fold
Foldables just became impossible to ignore
The technology is ready. The demand is real. The biggest names in tech are all in. What's not settled yet is who leads the experience. Make sure it's you.
With our audit you can align with market demand, platform requirements and EU regulations
Apple has now entered the foldable market with iPhone Duo, launching right alongside Samsung's record-breaking year for Galaxy Z Fold8. When the two biggest names in tech are both betting on folding screens, this isn't a niche experiment anymore.
But new devices are only part of it. Android's platform rules are changing, and the EU Accessibility Act already requires apps to support both orientations.

- 02 Platform changes
- 03 EU Accessibility Act
New devices
Foldables aren't a bet on the future anymore, they're already here.
- Samsung broke its own foldable pre-order record in Europe this summer
- Apple's new iPhone Duo could take around 25% of first-year foldable sales, right behind Samsung's 38%
- Cumulative foldable shipments are projected to pass 100 million units by the end of 2026
Meet your customers on their terms
Where we start
Market pressure, platform rules, new regulation: they all lead to the same question. Does your app actually work when it's folded? That's where we start.
A foldable isn't just a bigger or smaller screen, it's a different device with different rules, and getting it right means designing for how people actually hold, fold and use it, not just resizing what you already have. We'll help you get ahead of it, before users start running into crashes and broken layouts.
New aspect ratios
Your app needs to adapt to the device used by your customers.
Grip and reach
Clamshell and book-style foldables are held in different ways. This will affect how people interact with your app.
Unfolding states
Apps need to maintain states when a device is folded or unfolded. Pay attention to forms, scroll position, in-progress checkouts etc.
Only 2 days to set scope and timeline
Lead the market. We'll help you understand current app behaviour and outline the best approach for your desired experience. The audit includes:
- Evaluating the current experience on simulators and actual devices
- Reviewing the current layout implementation
- Design evaluation to set ambition for the experience
- Recommended approach, timeline and cost estimate
