Got an iPhone Duo? These 9 settings make it easier to use

From Touch ID shortcuts to smarter volume buttons and camera tricks, these tweaks make Apple's foldable iPhone easier to use every day.

Apple's latest foldable, the iPhone Duo, has become such a hit that the company is struggling to keep it in stock. To make the most of this new device, users may need to tweak a few settings to enhance its everyday functionality, such as unlocking with Touch ID, navigating the interface, and capturing photos. Here are nine settings that can make the iPhone Duo more user-friendly, particularly when using Touch ID.

Unlike newer iPhones, the Duo lacks Face ID, so users must rely on the traditional method of pressing a finger on the phone's side to authenticate with apps, unlock the device, and make payments via Apple Pay. Fortunately, there are several adjustments that can ease the transition from Face ID to the older Touch ID technology. Additionally, certain settings can improve the overall experience with the iPhone Duo, making tasks like taking screenshots or accessing different screen areas more straightforward. Some camera tricks may also be beneficial for certain users.
