## What is Kaleido Draw?

At the Science Museum in London, my kids were enjoying a drawing game they found in an area next to the space exhibit. Actually, it was hard to pull them away from it. I promised them I would make something similar.

While we were still at the museum, I pulled out my phone, and in just a couple of minutes using Claude, it produced a little kaleidoscope drawing game that was actually better than the one from the museum. My kids fell in love with it, and it honestly made the rest of the trip easier. They kept asking me to play it. They played with it on the tube. They played with it while I did some shoe shopping on Jermyn Street — for much longer than I expected. They played with it on the plane on the way home.

They've really enjoyed sharing their creations with me and my wife, and they asked me to get a version going that they could use on their iPads as well. So here it is, for anyone else to use. I hope it's fun for other kids to play creatively as well.

WHAT'S INSIDE
• Six glowing inks and an adjustable brush.
• 4, 6, 8, 12, or 16-fold symmetry.
• Mirror mode for kaleidoscope reflections; Spiro mode for spirograph loops.
• Slice guides, undo, one-tap clear.
• Save and share the artwork they're proud of.

A CALM KIND OF PLAY
No lessons, no timers, no scores. Just a quiet circle that turns whatever your child draws into something beautiful — and hands them the joy of having made it.

## Version history (last 4 releases)

### 1.1 — 2026-09-16

Much improved widescreen and landscape layout: the drawing takes the full height, with the controls beside it.

### 1.0.2 — 2026-09-10

No changes to the app itself. This version corrects the App Store listing, which showed every screenshot twice.

### 1.0.1 — 2026-09-08

On a Mac, Kaleido could close by itself a moment after opening. Fixed.

Zoom now follows a mouse wheel or a two-finger scroll, so a Mac with a mouse can zoom in and out — until now only a pinch could.

### 1.0 — 2026-09-03

No release notes.
