The iPhone Duo Can Be a Tiny Mac, a Toaster, and a Nintendo DS


The iPhone Duo has an all-new form factor with multiple folding and orientation options, and app developers are having some fun with it. You can find quite a few apps using the foldable display in unique ways, many with skeuomorphic designs.


Tiny Computers ($3.99)


Tiny Computers turns the ‌iPhone Duo‌ into a miniature retro computer, with options inspired by the Macintosh, Commodore 64, Amiga 500, iMac G3, iBook G3, and more. It works best with the ‌iPhone Duo‌ in a seated orientation, giving you a display and a virtual keyboard.


The mini computers have clickable keyboards, desktop games, and paint programs, along with hidden files and easter eggs.

Fold & Squish (Free)


Made by the same developer as Tiny Computers, Fold & Squish lets you make Rorschach art with the Duo. You paint a design on one half of the Duo's display, close it, rub a finger over the outer display to "squish" the virtual paint, then open it up to see your finished design.


An add-on "Sparkle Pack" includes glitter paints, rainbow paint, and pencil guides for helping you paint designs like butterflies, but the base feature set is available for free.

Portal ($2.99/month)


Portal is a relaxation app that offers "portals" to different natural environments, from a lava river in Iceland to the cloud forest in Costa Rica. There are over 100 locations, each with calming sounds and breathing exercises. The app can be used for meditation, but it also has focus timers and sleep timers.


When the ‌iPhone Duo‌ is unfolded, scenes take up the entire display, but it also works especially well when the ‌iPhone Duo‌ is in tent mode. There are three free portals to use that are refreshed each month, and a Premium subscription is priced at $2.99 per month or $29.99 per year.

Lake (Free)


Lake is an adult coloring book that's been updated for the ‌iPhone Duo‌. Holding the Duo in portrait mode gives you a full-page coloring surface, and the developer tells us it's being updated for Apple Pencil.


Lake has coloring pages from a long list of artists. It's free to download and comes with basic coloring pages and tools, but unlocking the full app requires a premium subscription that's $9.99 per month.

Toastie ($2.99)


Toastie turns the ‌iPhone Duo‌ into a toaster for making grilled cheese sandwiches. It's a game where you prepare the sandwich ingredients, then close the ‌iPhone Duo‌ to toast the sandwich. Timing is important, and the goal is to make a perfect grilled cheese.



Delta Game Emulator (Free)


Popular game emulator app Delta has been updated for the ‌iPhone Duo‌, and it turns the Duo into a Nintendo DS.




The app has Nintendo DS controls, and when you close it, it looks like the shell of the gaming system and puts the game you're playing into sleep mode. Delta supports plenty of games from other systems too.

TypeDraw ($4.99)


TypeDraw turns the ‌iPhone Duo‌ into a notebook. It looks like a notebook when the Duo is closed, and then you can open it up to pages you can write on. The app supports ‌Apple Pencil‌.



Fold Accordion ($2.99)


As the name suggests, Fold Accordion turns the ‌iPhone Duo‌ into an accordion. The hinge serves as the bellows, so the idea is to open and close the Duo to make music. There's a learn mode that lights up the keys you need to press.


Living Earth ($5.99)


If you're looking for an app that's ideal for the Duo's tent mode, Living Earth is worth checking out. It lets you set a location to get the time and local weather, plus it has a rotating globe that you can spin. When you unfold your ‌iPhone Duo‌, the globe takes up the entire display.


The app shows live clouds, storms, and weather maps across the world, so you can keep track of hurricanes, tropical storms, and other weather events.

Duometry ($2.99)


Duometry is a game that gives you a target angle you have to match by folding the ‌iPhone Duo‌. The idea is to make your best guess at the angle, and then lock in to see if you were correct.


Deck-Man ($4.99)


Deck-Man turns your ‌iPhone Duo‌ into a retro cassette player. You open up the ‌iPhone Duo‌ to pick your music, insert the cassette, and then snap the Duo closed to start music playback.


Orisuji ($4.99)


Orisuji is a paper maze game where you start with the inner display, and then fold the ‌iPhone Duo‌ to the outer display to solve the puzzles.


More Fun Apps



  • Foldissimo - If one pocket accordion wasn't enough, there's also Foldissimo, which lets you use your ‌iPhone Duo‌ to play accordion songs.

  • Fold Focus ($5.99/month) - Fold Focus is a pomodoro timer app that motivates you to keep your ‌iPhone Duo‌ closed for work, study, or creative sessions. While your device is shut, you work on building a virtual city.

  • Foldfish (Free) - Foldfish is a game where you unfold the ‌iPhone Duo‌ to cast, tap to throw, and then hold to reel in a catch.

  • Nitelore (Free) - Nitelore is an anti-gravity racing game with neon colors, and it looks great on the ‌iPhone Duo‌.

Adobe Photoshop 25.5 - Professional image editor.




You can download Adobe Photoshop as a part of Creative Cloud for only $54.99/month

Adobe Photoshop is a recognized classic of photo-enhancing software. It offers a broad spectrum of tools that can turn your inspiration into incredible images, photos, composites, 3D artwork, paintings, and graphics on any device.

Photoshop has become the choice of thousands of creative professionals around the world. First introduced in 1988, it still is the world's leading image-editing software.

Intuitive and clean user interface

Although Photoshop for Mac is the most comprehensive graphics and image-editing software available in the market today, it has a very intuitive and easy-to-navigate interface.

With recently improved usability, this photo-editor has become even more enjoyable to use. The interface loads as soon as you decide to use Photoshop.

A user-friendly interface updates you about new features, suggests learning content, and allows you to quickly access recent files. You can easily pick up where you left or create a new project, access cloud and desktop pictures, and open an existing document.

Convenient content-aware fill workspace

Adobe has recently announced the launch of its new Content-Aware Fill workspace. It allows you to remove objects or distracting elements from your images easier than ever before.

This new option offers an interactive editing experience. Now, you can take full Control over which "good" parts of the picture to use to replace the undesired areas. It allows resizing the initial selection, rotating, scaling, and mirroring content.

Enjoy a range of new tools

The latest version of the software provides a new Frame Tool that allows you to enjoy much simpler masking. Now, you can place shapes and text into placeholder frames and fill them with pictures. To create elliptical or rectangular forms, you only need to select the Frame Tool and press "K."

There is also a new default feature of multiple undo. If you want to view an object before changes are applied, just click Control + Z (for Windows OS) and Command + Z (for macOS). Don't worry about losing any project changes in Adobe Photoshop on your MacBook Air or MacBook Pro. With a new auto-commit feature, they are saved automatically.

What's new in Photoshop

Version 21.2:
  • In the latest version, you can make accurate selections of people with one click.
  • Now, Adobe Photoshop can find and add all available fonts to your libraries automatically when you open a project.
  • In updated Photoshop, Adobe Camera Raw workspace provides all your tools right where you need them so that you can work on your project more efficiently.
  • You can experience higher accuracy with the enhanced Match Font feature that allows vertical text, provides multiple-line detection and offers even more typefaces.
  • Now, you can change the orientation and add a rotation to any pattern in Pattern Overlays and Pattern Fill layers much more easily than before.


  • Create and save your presets for future use or import and export to share inspiration.
  • You can now adjust text alignment, spacing (leading and kerning), and font style (bolding, italicizing, underlining) directly from the Contextual Task Bar.


  • 8 GB RAM (16 GB recommended)
  • 4 GB of available hard-disk space for installation; additional free space required during installation (cannot install on a volume that uses a case-sensitive file system or on removable flash storage devices)
  • Internet connection
