Apple’s iPhone Duo could help fix one of Android’s biggest foldable problems
More foldable users could finally give developers a reason to optimize.
Google's Android chief believes that a growing interest in foldable devices, such as Apple's upcoming iPhone Duo, could prompt developers to optimize their apps for larger screens. Samat, the Android Ecosystem President, noted that some Android applications have yet to adapt properly to foldable screens, but developers are either working on the issue or already in discussions with Google to resolve it.
The challenge lies primarily in app development, despite Android foldables having made strides in hardware design over the years. Samat's comments suggest that Apple's entry into the foldable market with the iPhone Duo could serve as a catalyst for developers to prioritize creating more seamless foldable experiences across both iOS and Android platforms. This could potentially benefit Android users, according to Google's top Android executive.
