TREE NEWS update: Apple said on Nov. 9 that more than 100,000 apps worldwide have been adapted for its first foldable phone, the iPhone Duo, two weeks after it went on sale. In China, adapted apps include QQ, Tencent Meeting, DeepSeek, Ernie Bot, Bilibili, JD.com, Taobao Shangou and Alipay, covering social, AI, content, e-commerce and digital payment categories.
Apple says over 100,000 apps adapted for iPhone Duo foldable
The early app-adaptation figure is Apple's clearest signal yet that developers are treating the foldable form factor as a priority rather than a wait-and-see curiosity, and the breadth of Chinese coverage — social, AI assistants, content, e-commerce and payments — suggests the device's launch market is being supported at the platform level, not just by a few flagship partners. For developers and platform strategists, the relevant question is whether adaptation depth translates into genuinely foldable-native experiences or mostly stretched layouts. Whether the momentum holds past the launch window is the open question.
