Apple Store Pickup for iPhone Duo Starting to Resume But Very Limited‎

The option to reserve an iPhone Duo for Apple Store pickup is starting to return on Apple's online store, with the system live again in countries such as Australia, China, Japan, and South Korea. Unfortunately, our spot check revealed extremely limited availability right now, with few to no time slots available for all configurations. We only managed to find a single iPhone Duo unit available for Apple Store pickup in Australia on Saturday at the time we checked, as shown in the screenshot below, but it already disappeared by time we published this story. In other countries, such as the U.S., Canada, the U.K., and Singapore, Apple's online store continues to advise customers to check back on Saturday, October 24 in regards to Apple Store pickup, so we expect the reservation system to resume in additional countries as the clock rolls over to Saturday time zone by time zone. Just hours after iPhone Duo pre-orders began last Friday, Apple said demand for the device was "nothing short of extraordinary," with delivery estimates pushing into late January, so it is not surprising that Apple Store pickup slots are hard to come by right now. Apple said it was working to satisfy demand "as quickly as possible." Apple Store pickup was briefly offered for a few minutes after iPhone Duo pre-orders began last Friday, but the option quickly disappeared. Given the scarcity, long queues formed at many Apple Stores around the world today, with some lucky customers managing to secure an iPhone Duo on a walk-in basis. If you were not so lucky, the Apple Store pickup tool may be your next best option, so keep an eye on the iPhone Duo order page over the next day or so and refresh often.Related Roundup: iPhone DuoTag: Apple StoreBuyer's Guide: iPhone Duo (Buy Now)Related Forum: iPhoneThis article, "Apple Store Pickup for iPhone Duo Starting to Resume But Very Limited" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

iPhone Duo Jailbroken on Launch Day‎

Just hours after being released, an iPhone Duo running iOS 27.1 has been jailbroken by hacker team Calif. Calif demonstrated the ‌iPhone Duo‌'s icons and widgets bouncing around, and added an anime character to the device's screen. Last week, the group shared videos featuring an untethered jailbreak on an iPhone 18 Pro running iOS 27.0.1. The device was shown rebooting, with root access available after the reboot. CC @pwnlambda https://t.co/xpwddwn7tw— Calif (@calif_io) October 23, 2026 Calif has not publicly released the jailbreak. Calif security researcher Stefan Esser told German site Heise that there won't be a jailbreak tool available for "end users," but a proof of concept may be forthcoming. Esser said the iOS 27.0.1 jailbreak used bugs Calif has already disclosed or plans to disclose to Apple soon, and "most" of the vulnerabilities are fixed in the upcoming iOS 27.2 update. AI was used to help develop the jailbreak, but Esser didn't explain how.Related Roundup: iPhone DuoBuyer's Guide: iPhone Duo (Buy Now)Related Forum: iPhoneThis article, "iPhone Duo Jailbroken on Launch Day" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

Crackgate? iPhone Duo Owners Report Screens Breaking Along the Hinge‎

Some iPhone Duos are already experiencing hinge issues that cause display cracks, based on photos shared on Reddit and the MacRumors forums. Almost all of the display faults are right along the hinge, and most result in a line of bright pixels across one side of the screen. An iPhone Duo owner in Australia said his device cracked after being opened fewer than 20 times, and there was no visible damage beforehand. Had my iPhone Duo for about six hours and had probably opened it fewer than 20 times. I was showing it to a friend, and as I opened it, I felt something around the internal hinge, underneath the screen. As I continued opening it, I heard an audible crack, and the screen broke right along the hinge. There were no marks or damage on the inner screen's surface or the external hinge to suggest anything had been caught or damaged. The user visited an Apple Store, and Apple replaced the broken device right away. Apple is likely collecting defective iPhone Duos to research points of failure, and that research could lead to manufacturing improvements to reduce future issues. There are several images of broken displays from demo devices in China, where the ‌iPhone Duo‌ launched hours ahead of the U.S. The backstory for most of the images is unknown, and it's possible user damage is a factor. Some reviewers who got an ‌iPhone Duo‌ early subjected it to folding tests and didn't experience screen issues, but that's a small sample. With so many people getting iPhone Duos today, some failures are expected. It isn't known how widespread the issue is or whether we'll see an uptick in complaints over time. Hinge failures from normal use should be covered under the one-year warranty, and customers receiving an ‌iPhone Duo‌ today will also have two weeks to make a return.Related Roundup: iPhone DuoBuyer's Guide: iPhone Duo (Buy Now)Related Forum: iPhoneThis article, "Crackgate? iPhone Duo Owners Report Screens Breaking Along the Hinge" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

The MacRumors Show: iPhone Duo Arrives, Touchscreen MacBooks Next‎

On this week's episode of The MacRumors Show, we talk through the reception to the iPhone Duo as it goes on sale today, what to expect from next week's "Pro and tell" experience, and the iPod's 25th anniversary. Subscribe to The MacRumors Show YouTube channel for more videos The iPhone Duo launches today, starting at $1,999, with a 5.4-inch outer display that unfolds into a 7.6-inch inner display. Early reviews present a mixed picture of a device that brings fresh ideas to the iPhone, but asks users to accept some significant compromises. The matte inner display has emerged as a particular highlight, reducing reflections and making the crease less noticeable while providing more space for reading, watching videos, editing photos, and multitasking. Premium construction and performance also make a positive impression, but the software experience is less consistent. Unoptimized apps, wasted screen space, and unfamiliar controls can make the larger display feel underused. Reviewers are also divided over how comfortably iPhone Duo handles quick, everyday tasks. Some find the outer screen perfectly adequate for messaging and quick interactions, while others consider it to be restrictive. Its weight and width complicate one-handed use, returning to Touch ID takes adjustment, and the cameras fall short of Apple's Pro models. Our own first 24 hours with the device highlight many of these same trade-offs, alongside the appeal of side-by-side multitasking. We consider whether carrying a larger screen outweighs those compromises, or whether better app support and future hardware will make a more convincing case. iPhone Duo 24 Hours Later: Your Questions Answered iPhone Duo Reviews Explain Why Device is Both 'Fun' and 'Frustrating' Apple's next product announcement is already approaching, with the "Pro and tell" experience scheduled for October 28 in Los Angeles. Redesigned 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models are expected to headline the announcements, combining OLED displays with the first touchscreens on a Mac. The redesigned machines are rumored to feature lighter, potentially thinner designs, a reinforced hinge for touch input, and a Dynamic Island replacing the "notch." They are expected to retain M5 Pro and M5 Max chips, making the display and design the main new features. A redesigned iPad mini is also expected, featuring an OLED display, the A20 Pro chip, a landscape front-facing camera, and a redesigned speaker system. Water resistance could also be present for the first time on an iPad. Apple is also expected to bring the M6 chip to the iMac and entry-level 14-inch MacBook Pro. Finally, we mark 25 years since Apple introduced the original iPod on October 23, 2001.

Apple Released iOS 27.1 for iPhone Duo Only‎

Apple this week released the full and final version of iOS 27.1, but it is only available for the foldable iPhone Duo that launched today. iPhone Duo already ships with iOS 27.1 preinstalled, but users need to update to a newer build of iOS 27.1 while setting up the device, and that newer build is available for download as an IPSW file as of Thursday. Apple's release notes for the newer build simply mention unspecified "bug fixes for your iPhone." iOS 27.1 has no security fixes. Apple jumped ahead to an iOS 27.2 beta for all other compatible iPhone models, and the iOS 27.2 Release Candidate is compatible with the iPhone Duo too, so all of the models will be able to upgrade to iOS 27.2 for consistency. iOS 27.1 was likely kept exclusive to the iPhone Duo so that Apple could prevent certain Duo-specific software features from leaking before the device launched. iOS 27.2 is expected to be released next week.Related Roundups: iOS 27, iPadOS 27, iPhone DuoBuyer's Guide: iPhone Duo (Buy Now)Related Forums: iOS 27, iPhoneThis article, "Apple Released iOS 27.1 for iPhone Duo Only" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

iPhone Duo: Open Two Apps Side by Side and Lock Them As an App Pair‎

iPhone Duo is the first iPhone that can run two apps on the screen at the same time. Unfold the phone in landscape orientation, and Split View puts two apps side by side on the 7.6-inch inner display. It's especially handy for things like keeping Messages open next to Maps, or Safari next to Notes. Indeed, if there's an app combination that you use often, you can lock two together as an app pair, and they will always launch together. Here's how to do both. Open Two Apps in Split View The way it currently works, Split View can be invoked on the iPhone Duo's inner display in landscape orientation. Here are the two ways to start it. From an app you're already using: Swipe up from the bottom of the screen, pause in the center, then keep dragging the app toward the left or right edge. The app will settle into that half of the screen, and the Home Screen will appear on the other half. Now select the second app you want to open. You can tap its icon from the Home Screen, swipe down to search for it, or swipe leftwards to find it in the App Library. Tap the second app, and it will appear alongside the first. From the Home Screen or App Library: Touch and hold an app icon, then tap Open in Split View. Tap the second app you want to open alongside it from the Home Screen, or using swipe-down search or the App Library. We've found that in certain cases, two windows of the same app also work. Apps that support multiple windows include Safari, Mail, Notes and Files. Simply open the app in Split View, tap its icon again on the Home Screen or in App Library, and a second window opens beside the first. This way, you can have two webpages open at once, or your inbox next to a draft. It's pretty neat. To swap the two apps around, just swipe up from the bottom of either app, pause in the center, then drag it to the opposite side. Lock Two Apps as an App Pair With both apps open in Split View, tap the divider between them. There isn't really a second step – that's essentially it. The apps are now paired, and the next time you open either one, the other one will open with it automatically. To unpair them at any time, just drag the divider in the center, all the way to the left or right edge of the screen. The app you push off will close, while the other will return to full screen. Worth Knowing Unlike in iPadOS, the app split on iPhone Duo is fixed at 50/50. So if you're used to Split View on iPad, remember that you can't drag the divider to give one app more room. Also, only one app can play audio at a time, so it's not like you can scroll two video feeds side by side and expect to get sound from both.Related Roundup: iPhone DuoBuyer's Guide: iPhone Duo (Buy Now)Related Forum: iPhoneThis article, "iPhone Duo: Open Two Apps Side by Side and Lock Them As an App Pair" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

Apple Music Has a Hidden iPod You Can Play With‎

Apple Music has an easter egg on the web: a fully-functional iPod that appears when you load a page that does not exist, such as music.apple.com/macrumors. The easter egg is only visible in a web browser, so you will not be able to see it in the Apple Music app. To avoid being automatically redirected to the Apple Music app, hold down the Command key when clicking on the link on a Mac, or press and hold on the link and tap "Open" on iOS. "Page Not Found," says Apple. "Give this a spin instead." You can navigate the first-generation iPod using the click wheel and listen to 90-second previews of select songs from artists such as Alicia Keys, Beyonce, Britney Spears, Coldplay, Daft Punk, Drake, Dr. Dre, Eminem, Fall Out Boy, Foo Fighters, Justin Timberlake, Lady Gaga, Michael Jackson, Panic! At The Disco, U2, and more. There is even an easter egg within an easter egg. If you navigate to Settings → About on the iPod and click and hold on the click wheel's center button, you can eventually play the classic game Breakout on the screen. Apple co-founders Steve Wozniak and Steve Jobs helped to create Breakout while they worked at Atari in the 1970s. The easter egg was discovered on the 25th anniversary of Apple announcing the original iPod.Tag: Apple MusicThis article, "Apple Music Has a Hidden iPod You Can Play With" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums
