fun fact: XCode 27.1 (the version of XCode required to build apps for iPhone Duo) only came out last week— meaning developers have only had *any* sort of access to the iPhone Duo via the Simulator for less than a week. the number of devs with *physical* devices is *even* smaller. so yes, a lot of apps aren’t optimised for the iPhone Duo yet— but yes, i’m sure a lot of apps will be optimised soon, especially considering all the excitement around the iPhone Duo. there are already so many cool and unique apps for the iPhone Duo (like DuoMan, which i’m sure you’ve seen already) writing off the Duo as a “failure” because of the app optimisation before the phone’s even in stores yet is a very dumb take tbh

me when i break my phone and it breaks
Unbelievable! The iPhone Duo's display has been hiding a shocking secret! Someone finally dared to peel off the matte film covering the iPhone Duo's display, and what they discovered was astonishing. With the film removed, the screen underneath looks surprisingly uneven, with visible bumps, ripples, and even wrinkles!
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
This isn't a hidden secret: Apple has publicly confirmed the matte nano-texture layer is intentionally peelable and replaceable. Apple VP Kate Bergeron said customers can peel it off and get a new one, and Apple offers an official $19 replacement service for this exact layer. macrumors.com/2026/10/01/iph… iphoneincanada.ca/2026/10/01/app…

ok so this is pretty obviously how the Dynamic Island on the iPhone 20 will work imo (if it does end up having an under screen camera after all) invisible by default and appearing only when you use a Live Activity- with this animation

exactly, i find it so funny that android fanboys are talking about the iPhone Duo’s apps like “gotcha!” Android foldables have existed for 8 years and yet the majority of android apps aren’t optimised for them the iPhone Duo isn’t even in stores yet, y’all are embarrassing yourselves 😭
‘the apps aren’t optimized’ least original take, it happened with the 5, 6, and X and it becomes a non issue almost immediately it’s not even Friday yet

i wonder if it’s possible to take screenshots on HomeView, and how you’d even do that since there aren’t any physical buttons “hey Siri, take a screenshot”?

MacBook Pro this, iPad Pro that… look at the animation- it’s wiping across the screen clearly, this is hinting at the new Polishing Cloth Pro
Can’t wait to pro and tell next week.

i’m not saying this to be a Samsung hater but uh… this phone’s been out for MONTHS and yet even YouTube- a preinstalled app from Google themselves- hasn’t been optimised for its display and looks terrible on it 🤷‍♂️

there’s a very real chance Apple sells more iPhone Duos in the next week than Samsung did in their entire 8 years of making foldables 💀
the iPhone Duo is now sold out until the end of January 2027. this is INSANE.
