Read full description

Drop It is a draw-line physics puzzle. Swipe to create ramps and guides, then watch the marbles roll where gravity takes them. Each marble needs to reach the box that matches its color. Your ink is limited — draw too much and you'll run out mid-puzzle. That one constraint is what makes it interesting. No timers. No hint buttons. No paywall nudges. You figure it out or you don't — and when you do, it feels earned. Levels introduce saw blades, bombs, directional pushers and other hazards that change how you need to think. The physics stay consistent, so when something goes wrong, it's always on the drawing.

One shape. One straight cut. Divide it as close to 50/50 as you can. Split gives you a shape and asks for a single straight line. There is no timer, nothing to collect and nothing to wait for — only the question of whether your eye can find the half. It usually cannot, and that is the game. After every cut Split draws the line you should have drawn: the one at your own angle that divides the shape exactly in half. The gap between the two lines is the whole lesson, and it is how you get better. WAYS TO PLAY Classic — endless shapes, retry as often as you like. Run — ten cuts, one attempt each, one score. Daily — three shapes, the same three for everyone, every day, with a streak and a spoiler-free result to share. Trials — twelve packs of hand-made shapes, each built around one way the eye gets area wrong, with medals. Fractions — cut off a third, a quarter or a fifth instead of a half. Challenge a friend — play ten shapes, send a ten-character code, and your friend plays the same ten. No account, no internet. YOUR EYE, MEASURED A Precision rating from 0 to 100 tells you how good your eye is right now, from the median of your recent first cuts. Watch it climb. WHAT SPLIT INCLUDES Classic, Run, today's Daily with your streak, friend challenges, two complete Trials packs plus the first shape of every other pack, a Fractions taster, your Precision rating and statistics, and the share card. No ads, ever, and nothing is on a timer. SPLIT COMPLETE — ONE OPTIONAL PURCHASE Ten more Trials packs — 110 more hand-made shapes: hollows, arcs, lobes, slivers, combs, spirals, stars, arrows, deception, mastery. Fractions in full — thirds, quarters, fifths and two fifths, endless. The daily archive — play any past day you missed. Deeper statistics — your rating over time, the kinds of shape that fool you most, forty cuts of trend and your full daily history. One purchase. Yours forever. No subscription. If you already own Split Complete, or bought Split when it was a paid app, everything new is already yours. ACCESSIBLE Precise Cut Controls let you place every cut with an angle and a position control instead of drawing it — with VoiceOver, Switch Control or a steady hand. Split follows your text size, Reduce Motion and dark mode, on iPhone and iPad. PRIVACY Split collects nothing about you. No account, no analytics, no advertising and no tracking of any kind. The game works entirely offline and everything you do stays on your device. The only time Split uses the network is to complete or restore a purchase, and that exchange is handled by the App Store.
