Apple's iOS 27 has been adapted for the iPhone Duo, a device with a unique form factor. Developer pdfu has discovered a new feature that allows for more convenient toggling of Focus modes on the iPhone Duo. The most noticeable software adaptation is the defocusing of the outer display when opened, making it effectively transparent.
Another standout change is the relocation of the dock to the right-hand side of the outer display. A new feature spotted by pdfu is a focus mode toggle located above the camera and flashlight icons on the iPhone Duo lock screen. This feature is only accessible when a focus mode is enabled, allowing users to easily toggle it off from the lock screen.
However, once disabled, users can toggle the mode back on. This functionality could be particularly useful for scenarios like exiting a meeting and cancelling Do Not Disturb mode without needing to unlock or open the device. Additionally, the leaker has revealed other unannounced features, such as StandBy views in the iPhone Duo and HomePad, as well as color options for the latter.
