Apple’s foldable iPhone Duo is prompting developers to rethink how their apps handle its larger screen and hinge. Very Good Ventures says developers should move to Xcode 27.1, switch customised app delegates to the UIScene lifecycle to avoid crashes, and adapt navigation and layouts for the open display.
Why it mattersThat gives app teams concrete compatibility work to consider, rather than the vague instruction to make everything foldable-shaped. The advice comes from Very Good Ventures’ account, not Apple’s developer documentation. For users, the payoff is whether apps feel designed for the Duo instead of stretched across it.
Discuss: Should developers prioritise a polished foldable experience now, or wait until the format has a larger audience?
