Apple's upcoming iPhone Duo, set to launch this Friday, will introduce a new version of the Reachability feature later this year. Reachability, first introduced in 2014 with the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus, allows users to more easily access elements near the top of the display by swiping down on the bottom of the iPhone. For the iPhone Duo, Apple reportedly plans to offer a horizontally-oriented version of Reachability, making it easier for those with small hands to access the left or right edges of the screen with a tap.
The iPhone Duo's wider displays and UI layout, which favors right-handed use, have raised concerns among some users. However, the forthcoming Reachability feature should provide a solution for those struggling to reach interface elements along the left or right edge of the device.
