What is the iPhone Kupi AI trend?
"iPhone Kupi" is a TikTok dance that took off in late October 2026. A creator filmed himself in a hotel room at night, holding a folded phone up to his nose, opening it out panel by panel into a screen the size of a tablet, then backing away and dancing with it.
Within days the clip was copied everywhere, and people began making AI versions with their own face doing the unfold and the dance. Searches for "iphone kupi" passed 60,000 a month, and template tutorials crossed a million views.
This page makes that clip with you in it. The room, the moves, the camera and the sound stay exactly as in the original; only the dancer changes to the person in your photo.

Second by second
| Seconds | What happens | What it needs from your photo |
|---|---|---|
| 0–1 s | You hold a folded phone right up to your nose. | A sharp, front-facing face: this is the closest shot. |
| 1–3 s | You open it once and show the screen to the camera. | Hands and face fill the frame here. |
| 3–5 s | You unfold it again into a giant screen in front of the lens. | Your face peeks over the top; clear eyes help. |
| 5–15 s | You step back into the hotel room and dance, swinging the screen and throwing it overhead. | Head to toe: a full-length photo looks most natural. |
What this version does and does not do
- Does: the full 15-second clip, from the unfold to the dance, with you as the dancer.
- Does: keep the original room, moves, camera and sound.
- Does not: change the phone or the room. The giant foldable screen is the one from the original clip.
- Does not: dress you like the original dancer. You keep the clothes from your photo.
