@madeby_ldt i just KNEW something was wrong when i typed that tweet ffs 😭

[System Settings @app_settings]

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

@miaaowing are they wrong though

@apollozac i love this so much omg

[System Settings @app_settings]

@thesamuelnam YouTube got partial support iirc, but the rest of Google’s apps are… well… 🥴

@bySheaCohen agreed, i just tried it and it blows every other foldable out of the water

[System Settings @app_settings]

ok yeah the nanotexture display is incredible, it’s like Apple deleted the crease 🫪

[System Settings @app_settings]

@TheRealZeeUltra it’s bigger than i expected ngl

i really really like the size- it feels great in the hand

especially as someone that likes compact phones

[System Settings @app_settings]

@Remo_Pr0 that was only the beta tho, i was referring to the stable release :p

[System Settings @app_settings]

@TheJoshCarl the hinge feels great, it’s stiff near the fully open and closed positions and smooth the rest of the way- just how it should be

it holds itself open too which is nice (the Fold8 doesn’t do that)

[System Settings @app_settings]

@jam_minty oh this is a good question- there aren’t any third party demo apps on the iPhone Duo, which is interesting

they only have the standard Apple system apps (which are all optimised)

here are some screenshots i took of the apps on the Duo

@Sankew06 amazing video choice

[System Settings @app_settings]

@hb1290hb do it! it’s so much fun lol, i’m still at the store 😭

[System Settings @app_settings]

@Sankew06 foldable iPhones? you’re crazy

[System Settings @app_settings]

@WigettaGaming mogged.

the iPhone Duo feels a lot more like a “real foldable” because of the custom status bar and UI stuff- it makes the experience lot more polished and complete

the Fold8 just feels like a regular android phone squished into that form factor 🫠

[System Settings @app_settings]

@saulman00 invisible! the nanotexture coating is amazing

[System Settings @app_settings]

@samkohl SAM. NOT THIS ONE SAM. COME ON MAN
