RIVEA Fold Duo — lid-close effect for your MacBook
Close your MacBook — and the screen folds with it. The content tips away from you, softens and drains into black. Degree for degree with the hinge. Open it again: everything is back.
Not just the wallpaper. Your windows, the Dock and the menu bar tilt too.
It lives in the menu bar. No window in the way, no Dock icon, no notifications.
Why you will keep it
- Everything adjustable — how far it tips, how much blur, how dark, from and to which angle. Subtle or dramatic.
- It cannot get stuck — five independent exits switch the effect off instantly. The most important one: you move the mouse.
- No follow-up cost — no subscription, no account, no ads, no internet access.
- Updates until at least 31 Dec 2028 — through the same download link.
Check before buying
- macOS 14 or newer.
- Degree-for-degree needs a lid-angle sensor: MacBook Air from M2, MacBook Pro 14"/16" from M1 Pro/Max. On every other MacBook the effect plays as a short animation on open and close — not tied to the angle. iMac, Mac mini and Mac Pro have no lid.
- Grant "Screen Recording" once so windows and Dock tilt too. The app takes a single still — nothing stored, nothing sent, no internet access. Don't want it? Switch it off and it runs on your desktop picture with no permission at all.
- One "Open Anyway" on first launch. Normal for apps outside the App Store, explained step by step in the guide.
