## What is Origami?

Learn origami step by step with a complete course: every fold animated in 3D, 206 models from the classic crane to dragons, and 53 paper airplanes that really fly. Ten minutes a day, from your very first fold to designing your own paper models.

EVERY STEP FOLDS IN FRONT OF YOU
No more static drawings you can't follow: every fold is animated in 3D, with the lines and arrows of classic origami diagrams. Pause, drag to watch in slow motion, or go back whenever you like.

206 MODELS CHECKED ONE BY ONE
Crane, flapping bird, swan, jumping frog, dragon, phoenix, scorpion, butterfly, ninja star, samurai helmet, masu box, fortune teller, heart, tulip, shark, dolphin and many more. Every diagram is checked fold by fold so paper never passes through paper.

PAPER AIRPLANES THAT FLY
The dart, the glider, the Concorde, a fighter jet, a stunt plane that loops and more, with the science of why they fly and how to trim them to go further.

A 24-MONTH COURSE
Each month brings a new technique and several models to practise it:
• Valley and mountain folds, and your first animals
• The kite base, planes and gliders
• The blintz base and the masu box
• Reverse, squash and petal folds
• The preliminary base, the waterbomb and the crane
• Modular origami, boxes, tessellations and wet folding
• Crease patterns and designing your own models
• The history of origami and its role in science

PRACTISE SMARTLY
• Today: your session, ready to go
• Review: models you know come back at the right moment so you don't forget them
• From memory: fold without looking and peek only when you need to
• Streak, daily goal, milestones and your best time for each model

FOR EVERYONE
For kids and adults, starting from zero. In English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Japanese, Korean and Chinese, with Dynamic Type, VoiceOver, Dark Mode and Reduce Motion support. Works on iPhone, iPad and iPhone Duo: half folded, the paper sits on top and the steps below.

ONE PAYMENT
The first month is free. The full course, with every model, unlocks with a single payment. No subscription, and it works with Family Sharing.
