TestFlight now works in landscape as Apple prepares for iPhone Duo

Apple recently updated its TestFlight beta testing service to support landscape orientation and resizable iPhone Mirroring windows in macOS 27 Golden Gate. This update comes in the lead-up to the upcoming iPhone Duo, which is expected to release for presale on October 16 and officially on October 23. Priced starting at $1,999 in the US, the iPhone Duo boasts a 5.4-inch outer display and a larger 7.6-inch foldable inner display.

To access TestFlight, users can download it from the App Store using the provided link. The landscape mode in TestFlight reorganizes app listings into a dual-column format, while the iPhone Mirroring window in macOS now adapts to various aspect ratios, enhancing the overall user experience. Stability improvements and bug fixes are also part of the latest TestFlight update.

  • Outperforms Git and Mergifar, handling genuine divergent concurrent additions
