Well, the project is open source:

https://github.com/honcheng/PaperFold-for-iOS

So, you could probably convert the source to Android.  I have done this for 
several games/projects.  It tends to be a lot of work but very didactic.

Also, you could contact the author and see if he will make you an Android 
version:

Thanks.

I'm sorry, in what way can converting source be didactic?

I even double-checked the definition of "didactic" in case I remembered it 
wrong. I didn't.

Is this a metaphor?

Just to confirm your double check of the definition matches what
other folks might be using:

http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/didactic

Reading and converting someone else's source between 2 platforms
lets you learn about how the problem was solved and details about
what is used on the two platforms.I think that fits for "intended to
teach" and might even fit "pleasure and entertainment" for folks that
like to learn.

No, it doesn't. "Intended to" is the key phrase.

And if you knew the word, you'd know that it refers to works like, for 
example, _Pilgrim's Progress_, that have a specific lesson or moral 
to imbue.

Read the definition again. And check into how the word is used. You are off 
the mark.

Code that you convert for work was not written to teach you a moral lesson.

Anyway, anything you say is mere guesswork as to the OP's intent for the 
word. I asked
the OP what *they* intended.

Thank you for your diversionary and rather didactic answer.

Perhaps you are being intentionally thick headed (in an attempt to maintain
your misunderstanding of something that seems clear to me.)There are
alternate definitions in that list. Look up something like a didactic 
class, they
don't have to provide a moral lesson, and the adjective doesn't have to be
derogatory, e.g.:

http://depts.washington.edu/pulmcc/education/medstudent/

Somehow I don't think a didactic lecture on the respiratory system would
match your misreading of the definition that limits it's use to things such
as Pilgrim's Promise.

If you choose to convert code across platforms with the intent to learn (and
doing so gives you lots of ways to learn vs. the standard "go google it" 
answer),
the exercise can be didactic.  Why the original author wrote the code has no
effect how it's used to learn.

I suspect the OP is more clever than I am for recognizing your linguistic
baiting for what it was vs. my attempt to enlighten you.  I'll leave you to
your torturous misuse of the language and misguided nit picking.

Uses the term in exactly the way that I suggested was correct. So?

Somehow I don't think you understood my post. It matches exactly the 
definition 
that I cited.

Your intent using the code is not relevant to the author's intent writing 
the code, 
which latter is what is relevant to the definition of "didactic". For 
example, were I 
to post a code sample here in the newsgroup, it would be didactic code 
because 
I post it for the purpose of instruction.

The code the OP described was not, AFAICT from their post, written for that 
purpose.

And so I asked * the OP * what they meant by it. Not for all the evil, 
smelly personal 
character flaws of which you accuse me, but for my understanding of what 
they meant.

The exercise of searching can serve a didactic purpose, but again, that has 
nothing 
to do with why the code was written, so it has zero bearing on whether one 
can fairly 
describe the code as didactic.

why 
you think I need enlightening in the first place, and is inconsistent with 
your rhetorical 
style of derogatory remarks, misstatement of the points with which you 
purport to 
disagree, and is itself a fallacy (whose name escapes me right now) wherein 
you 
expect your motivation for your statements to suffice to establish their 
validity, 
instead of evidence and logic.

I simply asked the OP what they meant by a term. Don't get your knickers 
all in a twist.

Ok, I'll bite again, on the theory that you are very eloquent and deeply
knowledgeable about the intricacies of argument but misread the original
statement which still seems perfectly clear to me.

The OP wrote:

I'm at a loss to understand how you could read that to mean the OPs intent
was to describe the open source code as didactic and not the process of
converting it.

Like I said, I would suspect that it would definitely be possible.  If you
know a little bit of Objective C then you can probably figure out the
relevant aspects related to rendering the view.  It's pretty nontrivial,
mostly because writing custom animated views are difficult:  I assume you'd
do this with a `GLSurfaceView`, but I'm not sure how accurate that is,
given that I don't do much UI development..
