Apple released iOS 27.3 beta 1, which adds a Reachability feature tailored to the iPhone Duo's wide outer display. Instead of shifting the screen down as on standard iPhones, the feature slides content left or right via a side swipe, accessible under Settings > Accessibility > Reachability. Apple had promised this fix after users complained the Duo's wide screen was hard to use one-handed, and a public beta is expected soon ahead of a full rollout likely in mid-December.

Apple is beta testing iOS 27.2 well ahead of its usual schedule, with the update expected to launch during the week of October 26. The release will add Siri support for French, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese and Spanish, features Apple previously said would arrive the month after iOS 27's debut. iOS 27.1, by contrast, is reportedly limited to the new iPhone Duo launching October 23, with other iPhones skipping straight to 27.2.

Notably, Apple skipped a 27.1 release for most devices, with reports suggesting that version is reserved exclusively for the rumored iPhone Duo.

Apple has issued iPadOS 27.2 developer beta 1 just days after iPadOS 27's public launch, bypassing a 27.1 release entirely for testers. The move is unusual since iOS 27.1 is expected to focus on the upcoming iPhone Duo, suggesting Apple may be reserving that numbered update for iPhone-specific changes while iPad gets a separate track.
