Folding iPhone Unveiled: iPad-Inspired Interface, But Without iPadOS

The Upcoming Foldable iPhone Expected in September

The much-anticipated foldable iPhone set to launch in September is designed to showcase user interfaces reminiscent of the iPad on its expansive internal screen. However, according to Mark Gurman of Bloomberg, it will not run on iPadOS. This implies that the multitasking capabilities may be less sophisticated, likely lacking a windowed mode, and significantly, the foldable iPhone will not natively support iPadOS apps. Apple is reportedly revamping the interfaces of its core applications, for instance by incorporating sidebar designs similar to those on the iPad. Moreover, the foldable iPhone will enable users to display two applications side-by-side on its internal screen.

Internal Screen Specifications

The internal display of the foldable iPhone is expected to measure approximately 7.7 inches diagonally, closely rivaling the 8.3-inch screen of the iPad mini. With the reduction to a simple punch hole for the webcam due to the absence of Face ID, the foldable iPhone will reintroduce the Touch ID fingerprint sensor on the side button. The Dynamic Island will maintain its current software behavior. For more detailed speculations concerning the foldable iPhone, you can refer to the main rumors outlined in this article.
