DexFold is a talking Dex designed for foldable iPhones, and it works on every iPhone. UNFOLD IT Closed, the outer screen becomes the red lid, with the big blue lens drawn right around your camera. Unfold your iPhone and the Dex powers on across both screens: the sprite screen on one half, the keypad and description on the other, split exactly at the fold. A robot voice reads every entry while the blue lens flashes with each word. FOLD IT HALFWAY Fold your iPhone partway and a data screen sweeps open: base stats, abilities, moves, evolutions and how each one happens, type matchups, and where to find it. Open it flat to go back to the keypad. SCAN IT Tap the blue lens and point your iPhone at a toy, a drawing or a picture. DexFold recognizes the creature and opens its entry, entirely on your iPhone: camera images are never saved or sent. PLAY ALONG • Track your catches in each game's regional Dex: 37 regional Dexes • Earn a trophy, with its own pixel-art region badge, for every Dex you complete • Build a team of six and see its shared weaknesses and resistances • Guess the silhouette in the quiz and keep your streak going BUILT IN • All 1,025 entries are in the app, so it works offline • English, Spanish and Italian, including the voice • Metric or imperial units • No ads, no accounts, no tracking ON ANY IPHONE Tap the lid to flip it open, and both halves fit on one screen. Turn your iPhone sideways to see them side by side, and tap the description for the data screen. DEXFOLD PLUS (OPTIONAL, ONE-TIME PURCHASE) Catch tracking and trophies, favorites and a team, where to find each one, seven case colors, the Clear and Robot voices, and iCloud sync, all for one payment with no subscription. Optional tips support the app and unlock nothing. DexFold is an unofficial, fan-made app. It is not affiliated with, endorsed or sponsored by Nintendo, The Pokémon Company or Game Freak.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: DexFold at none against ProDex's shown. DexFold also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 88%). ProDex's advantage is ratings volume (5K vs 7). On price, rating, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
