Hinge Harp is a pocket instrument designed specifically for foldable-screen iPhones. It uses the screen crease as a slide bar, paired with buttons below for playing, delivering an interactive experience of “fold to play.” Featuring built-in scales (such as major/minor and blues) and chord modes, it ensures harmonious and pleasant performances. Six preset tones—dreamy, retro, etc.—are available, while users can freely adjust tone brightness and wet/dry levels via an XY touchpad, supporting motion-capture loop recording. Combined with a metronome, drum sequencing, and arpeggiator functions, Hinge Harp caters to creative needs ranging from basic performance to complex arrangement—a digital music tool that integrates portability, ease of use, and creativity.
