🧐 What is this sorcery?

Flippy Lid turns your MacBook's lid into a physical input controller. Yes, really.

By tapping into the hidden hinge angle sensors (via some dark IOKit magic 🧙‍♂️), we detect when you open or close your laptop. We then translate those physical "flaps" into digital actions.

It's the only app that gives your hinge a workout while you procrastinate.

🌟 Features

1. 🎮 FLAPPY GAME

The classic game, but you control the bird by physically flapping your MacBook screen.

• Open Lid = Flap Up
• Risk Level: High (Please don't snap your screen)

2. ⌨️ KEY SIMULATOR (Universal Controller)

Map your lid "flaps" to ANY keyboard key.

• Map it to Space -> Play Chrome's Dinosaur Game physically.
• Map it to W -> Walk forward in games by oscillating your screen.
• The possibilities are endless (and ridiculous).

3. 🔐 LID PASSWORD (James Bond Mode 🕵🏻‍♂️)

Automatically type a preset password when you perform a secret "Lid Handshake".

• Trigger: Quickly open/close your lid 3 times.
• Action: Type the preset password in any input box.
• Cool Factor: 11/10 when done in a coffee shop.

💡 The "Science"

This project stands on the shoulders of giants (and reverse engineers):

• The Sensor: MacBooks have Hall Effect sensors or similar mechanisms to detect lid angle for sleep/wake. We read the raw data from IOHIDDevice.
• The Pioneer: LidAngleSensor by Sam Henri Gold. He did the hard work of finding the magic IOKit keys.
• The Spark: Directed by this tweet from @rebane2001, who wisely asked: "Can I jump by flappy my foldable device?"

⚠️ Warning: Read Before Flapping

1. Hinge Health: Your MacBook hinge is designed for gentle adjustments, not high-frequency flapping. We are not responsible if your screen becomes floppy.
2. Social Awkwardness: Using this app in public will make people stare at you. Embrace it.
3. Compatibility:
   • ARM Macs Only: Specifically designed for M1/M2/M3 MacBooks. Intel Macs use different sensors (and are too hot to touch anyway).
   • Private APIs: We use private APIs. Apple could patch this loophole at any moment. Enjoy it while it lasts!
