Apple finally breaks its silence on iPhone Duo’s cracked screens

Apple has officially unveiled iOS 27.2, with one of its key highlights being the integration of Apple Pencil support for the iPhone Duo. Alongside this, the update introduces an "Edge Light" feature on the iPhone Duo, designed to brighten users' faces during video calls. Apple revealed plans to incorporate the Apple Pencil support for the iPhone Duo "later this year" but has now made good on that promise with iOS 27.2.

The foldable device boasts a revamped iOS 27 interface that caters to the device's 7.6-inch inner display and 5.4-inch outer screen. While many popular apps like Netflix, Prime Video, and Microsoft Outlook already capitalize on the extra screen real estate, others require further optimization. The iOS 27.2 update also enables Siri AI to proactively suggest actions in Messages and rolls out support for Siri AI in multiple languages such as French, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, and Spanish.

Apple is also integrating Google's SynthID AI watermark into Photos and Image Playground. Other improvements include user profiles in the Apple TV app on iPhone, a shift from the "Up Next" queue to a "New Episodes" list in the Apple Podcasts app, a revamped "Continue Playing" section, and a new Apple Music logo. Group FaceTime calls now allow for dual-capture, displaying content from both the front and back cameras.

Additionally, Apple released macOS 27.2 Golden Gate, watchOS 27.2, visionOS 27.2, tvOS 27.2, and HomePod 27.2.
