About this app

One sheet of paper, a moment for you.

Foldstep teaches origami one fold at a time. Every step shows a single fold as a clear diagram that moves: where the paper goes, which layer moves and how it should look when you're done. No videos to pause, no tiny pictures to squint at.

MADE FOR THE TV
Put Foldstep on your Google TV and keep both hands on the paper. Large text you can read from the sofa, and the remote control moves you forward or back one step. Or turn on guided play: it shows the fold, then waits for you.

AND FOR THE TABLE
On your phone or tablet, lean the device against something and swipe the drawing to change steps. On a tablet or in landscape, the drawing and the instructions sit side by side.

START FREE
12 lessons are free: a ladder of first exercises, then the paper plane, the paper hat, the cup, the windmill, the table and more. The full player is always free: play, pause, previous, next, repeat a move, text size, demonstration speed and "paper only" view.

PACKS
- Party Pack: six models to fold with friends, from the salt cellar to the samurai helmet.
- Birds Pack: the bird base, the crane and the flapping bird.

Every paid lesson lets you fold the first step before you decide. Each pack is a one-time purchase, no subscription, and you can restore it at any time on your Android devices with the same Google account.

RESPECT FOR CREATORS
Every model in Foldstep is traditional or our own, with its provenance documented. The diagrams and texts are ours.

Available in English, Spanish and Portuguese.
