Samon (砂紋) are the patterns raked into the gravel of Japanese stone gardens. Samon turns your screen into a surface you can feel. Every texture is generated in black and white on the spot: checkers, corduroy, wire grid, domes, vinyl grooves, rubber, waves, sand, bricks, a maze, zigzags, a rasp, a fingerprint, dry mud, bubble wrap, a music-box comb and a gradient. Drag your finger across it and the Taptic Engine plays back what is under it. Edges click as you cross them, and the rhythm follows your speed. Domes swell under your fingertip instead of clicking. Metal rings, stone knocks, felt is soft. Rubber grips and judders, and squeals when you go fast. Mud cracks and bubbles pop the first time you touch them, and stay broken. Each tine of the comb rings at its own pitch. Direction matters too: the rasp is smooth one way and catches the other. Tap NEW TEXTURE for another surface. No accounts, no ads, no tracking. Nothing leaves your phone. Best on an iPhone with a Taptic Engine.
