Summary
Friday’s iPhone Duo launch will be accompanied by a new “Made for iPhone Duo” App Store badge marking apps and games optimized for the foldable’s inner and outer screens.
Netflix, Prime Video, Microsoft Word, Outlook and Zoom are among the early apps using the extra display space for split-screen viewing, desktop-style layouts and side-by-side video conferencing.
Apple also highlighted Paramount Plus, NYT Cooking, Yelp, Lyft and United Airlines, though some supposedly optimized apps — including Instagram in early testing — still show bugs.
Editorial App Store collections for the Duo go live Friday, while Apple said additional app updates will roll out through the year as the $1,999 device arrives in limited walk-in quantities.
