Gesture RPS lets you play rock-paper-scissors against your iPhone. You show your hand to the front camera, the phone counts 3-2-1-Shoot, and it reads your sign on the device.
How to play
- Allow camera access when asked.
- Hold your hand up about 30–60 cm from the screen, with your palm or the back of your hand facing the camera.
- Tap Play. On "Shoot!", show rock (fist), paper (open hand) or scissors (two fingers).
- The phone picks its move at random before it looks at your hand, so it can't cheat. First to win the majority of a best-of-3 or best-of-5 match wins.
It says "Show your hand clearly"
This means the app couldn't see your hand, or couldn't be sure which sign you made, so it replays the round. It does not guess. Tips: keep your whole hand and wrist in the picture, use decent light, spread your fingers for paper and keep them apart for scissors. A fist pointed straight at the lens is the hardest sign to read, so tilt it a little.
What happens after each round?
The result card shows both moves and a short countdown ("Round 2 in 3…"), then the next round starts on its own. Tap Stop match at the bottom at any time to end the match and reset the score.
