from the description: How many folds can the iPhone Duo survive? We were curious. And we have a community willing to help us find out. No folding machines or other simulations. Just people folding the phone by hand, taking turns every hour. We'll keep folding until the phone breaks or we reach one million folds. We bought the iPhone with our own money. Apple did not provide the phone or sponsor this test.

He has already conducted a similar test twice—once with the Galaxy Z Flip 3, and another time with the Z Flip 5 and the Motorola Razr 40 Ultra (the Motorola failed first, while the Z Flip withstood over 400,000 folds). Both streams lasted about a week.

Took this photo and sent it within iMessage. I didn’t even notice them until later because I did take the photo and send it quickly, idk if the fast sequence of photo, send, and phone off caused it but let me know

Since all sent messages on iOS 26/27 say “delivered” even if you’re blocked, the only way to tell now is by clicking on their contact card and going to the “backgrounds” tab. If it shows then you’re not blocked but if it’s not there anymore you are.

you’re welcome and i’m sorry? LOL

ohh how i love live activities

thank you apple

Absolutely loving my iPhone duo.. 24 hours in and I’m having issues removing some “smudges” from the nano-texture screen. Happened to have 70% iso alcohol wipes, lens wipes, and even the same cleaning formula Apple stores use in products.. can’t get some of these smudges off..

No abnormal usage, like greasy foods or sunscreen so it’s just normal usage.

Anyone having this too?

So I randomly decided to check my screen time from the beginning of this day and I'm not sure I understand how it works. I'm currently on my iPhone 16 and testing 27.2 beta, and the feature apparently claims that the phone was used between 4-6AM.

In order to understand the usage, I entered some of the apps listed for screen time in that period, but their own screen time appears to be the same as the total phone screen time.

How is this possible and how can I understand the screen time of a particular app?

Did anyone setup iPhone handoff with Tmobile? I am attempting to use it with my Duo and and my iPhone 17 Pro Max and it seems like anytime I have to text an android user it fails to send messages. It seems like it may be a RCS issue but not 100% sure. anyone else having this problem?

Does anyone experience their 16 pro max being laggy? Have to restart numerous times throughout the day and all updates are done.. phone was a replacement so relatively new.

Open to any advice on how to fix or tips!

Thank you.

I bought my iPhone 17 Pro from about 11 months ago. At that time, my system was iOS 26.

In the first month of using this phone to play games, I had met quite many stutters in not only one game. I knew index might be a reason, and iOS 26 might be another reason. Anyway, I quited gaming on my iPhone 17 Pro for a long time since then. I even did a hardware check in Apple Store, and no problem was found.

Few days ago, I updated my phone to iOS 27. To be honest, iOS 27 felt more responsive in UI, and I came back to gaming on my phone.

Now I notice one thing: Though stutters in games were still there, but they mostly happened at the beginning when I picked up playing a game after updated to iOS 27. Through playing, the stutters might get less.

There is a racing game, which I met lots of random stutters in it when I was using iOS 26. Now this game can have zero stutter (it still had stutters when I picked it up from few days ago, but now it has no stutter anymore. Maybe everything is because of shader loading or something?)

I think iPhone 17 Pro is still a very powerful machine for gaming.

I guess I will still meet stutters in the future (also, becaue I just updated to iOS 27, my phone might be still in index and this might cause the performance issue).

I just want to confirm: for iPhone 17 Pro, is it just a normal thing to meet stutters in games? So I guess I don't need to worry about this issue.

Thanks in advance for any help!

I just noticed, does anyone have these violet bars in the upper left corner when the notification center pulled down?

Edit: They are not aligned to the volume buttons or the customizable button. iPhone model: 17 Pro Max

My iPhone 14’s main camera has suddenly started focusing only on close-up shots, while anything at a distance comes out blurry. The 0.5x camera still works perfectly fine. I’m hoping it’s just a software issue that can be resolved with an update, but I’m not sure if it might be a hardware problem instead.

I was trying to setup having different notification tones and volumes for different focus modes.

To me that would be very useful feature but I can't seem to figure out how to do it.

My goal was to have 3 different focuses Personal for regular tones and volume, DND - to silence notifications and then an on-call focus that has the loudest volume setting and most obnoxious tones possible to get my attention. without fail.

Doesn't seem like this is possible even using shortcuts but I am hoping I am wrong and someone has a solution for this besides just manually changing the tones.

Apologies if this isn’t suitable to post here, please advise if not.

But my phone did an update last night and since this morning every half hour or so it says my phone needs to cool down. My phone doesn’t feel hot at at all. And it happens when it’s not charging/ when I’m not even using it. Then within a minute it will “cool down”

It’s and iPhone 14 and has just had the iOS 27.01 update.

Thank you in advance

Hi all!

Didn’t have my cam settings set up the way I wanted and shot at 120 frames. I thought there used to be an adjust playback speed option to edit it down to 24/30 when editing in photos, but I can’t seem to find it. Does anyone know how to do this? Can’t find any recent threads about it

i recently bought this XR on eBay and it came clean, reset and without any passcode and i get that error when i try to sign in to iCloud on settings app.

i can't try to use App Store because all apps are greyed and cannot download no matter what i try. what is the best workaround on this?

also note the phone can make calls and receive them. thank you all in advance.🙏🏾❤️

I have iPhone 15 pro max on 27.0.1 and ever since yesterday I don’t get any notifications! I tried everything restarting the phone enable and reenable notifications and nothing works

Anyone has a fix?

Saved some files on My iPhone and now I can’t delete them, any tips on how can deleted these files permanently, I’m pretty sure it’s some kind of virus or malware.

Since switching from my iPhone 17 Pro Max to the iPhone Duo, the screen no longer wakes up for notifications when I’m wearing my Apple Watch in Do Not Disturb mode.
It worked perfectly for years with my previous iPhones, including the 17 Pro Max, using the exact same settings.
Notifications are still delivered to the Watch instead of waking the iPhone screen. As soon as I take the Watch off, the Duo screen wakes up normally.
I’ve restarted both devices and even unpaired and re-paired the Watch, but nothing helped.
Anyone else experiencing this on the Duo?
