Apple ships Tech Talks and new APIs for adapting apps to foldable iPhone Duo
Dimillian · x · 2026-09-10
Apple's developer relations team shared a series of official Tech Talks guiding developers through adapting apps for the rumored foldable iPhone Duo.
Key points:
- New APIs enable full-screen foldable experiences; developers should use size classes instead of interface orientation and handle asymmetric safe areas
- SwiftUI/UIKit examples include ConcentricRectangle for matching screen corners, sidebar placement on the inner display, and accessing the screen via windowScene instead of the main screen
- Xcode's Device Hub simulates fold poses and supports Split View multitasking tests
