Apple has confirmed that over 100,000 apps have been optimized for the iPhone Duo's dual-screen design, with thousands more added daily. The company credits developer enthusiasm and global workshops for the rapid adoption. Apple Music and all native apps were ready at launch, while third-party apps initially posed a challenge.
Susan Prescott, Apple’s VP of Developer Relations, highlighted the momentum, noting that thousands of developers attended workshops in 19 cities in the past month. Google notably updated its Maps app quickly, a departure from its usual slow adoption of new Apple standards. Unoptimized apps display poorly, with black bars or awkward scaling.
Properly updated apps leverage the full width of both screens, adjusting controls based on how open the device is. Apple insists the required updates are minor for those who followed earlier guidelines.
