Sep 23 – Oct 23 · Online · Free

    Build and ship an iPhone Duo app on launch day.

    iPhone Duo reaches customers on October 23. From September 23, we build for it together: you bring an app idea, we bring Modaal, Xcode 27.1 and a Discord channel where our team answers for the whole four weeks. Everyone works toward the same date — App Review by October 16, live on October 23 — so Duo owners find your app the morning they unbox the phone.

    Fully online. Modaal Pro free for the month. No experience with foldables needed — nobody has any yet.

    How to get set up

    1. 1Download Xcode 27.1 beta from Apple. You need a free Apple Developer account and an Apple silicon Mac on macOS 26.6 or later.
    2. 2In Xcode, open Settings → Components and install the iOS 27.1 simulator. iPhone Duo appears only with the 27.1 runtime.
    3. 3Open your project in Modaal, select Xcode 27.1 beta and run on the iPhone Duo simulator. The first simulator launch can take a few minutes.

    Keep Xcode 27 installed next to the beta. App Store updates for your current apps still have to be built with the release version.

    What you get

    • Fully online. Join from anywhere.
    • Modaal free for one month for every participant.
    • A dedicated Discord channel with support from our team for the whole build period, so nothing blocks your release.
    • Target: submit to App Review by October 16, so your app is approved before launch morning.

    Nobody knows yet which apps people will want on a foldable iPhone. Apps that are live on October 23 will be the first ones Duo owners can install.
