iPhone Duo hides a 'Shift Left Edge' setting for case compatibility
Blogger Nicolas Lellouche discovered a hidden display option on the iPhone Duo called 'Shift Left Edge,' which adds a black border to the outer screen's left side, effectively doubling the bezel there. Apple's own description says the feature shifts content away from cases that partially cover that edge of the outer display.
GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
This suggests Apple is preparing for a range of third-party cases that may not fit the foldable's outer screen as cleanly as its own official accessories. It's a small but telling sign of how foldable hardware design forces software workarounds that traditional iPhones never needed.
