About this app

Hexaflexagons are the ultimate paper puzzle. This app helps you design them so that you can print and fold them at home.

What is a hexaflexagon, you ask? It's a hexagonal paper puzzle that has a front side, a back side, plus hidden sides that you can reveal if you flex the paper in just the right way.

It's fun to give them to your friends to see if they can find the hidden sides.

Hexaflexagons are great for sending secret messages. Or as photo gifts. Or birthday cards.

You can customize your own hexaflexagon or start from one of our designs.

Pricing: After printing 5 hexaflexagons for free, a $3.99 in-app purchase buys you unlimited access to have hexaflexagon designs emailed to you so that you can print, fold, and solve them.

For the hexaflexa-pros: Yes! This app lets you make both tri-hexaflexagons and hexa-hexaflexagons.

Ratings and reviews

Fun idea. I did one to send a message to my daughter which she is already clued in on, but I don't have a colour printer, so I just sent her the pdf. A nice feature is if the app would generate an animation as an option, which would behave as a real paper one depending on where you clicked it. Fancy programming would be needed!

Amazing! Never knew such a shape and puzzle was possible! Using the transformable designs this app is able to create will be more fun than just a plain flat card. And its great that the app allows any kind of text and pictures to be created into a transformable puzzle within just a few seconds or minutes sent conveniently to email address.

This is an amazing app for making hexaflexagons. The interface is absolutely fantastic, from the sleek animation to the customizable dialogues. I haven't seen enterprise apps with many developers involved create such a feature rich application like this. This must have taken years to develop. Well done on this amazing app hope it makes the top charts soon
