iPhone Duo Adds 'Shift Left Edge' Setting to Accommodate Cases
Key points
- iPhone Duo features 'Shift Left Edge' display setting.
- Setting adds a black border to the outer screen's left side.
- Moves content to prevent obstruction by certain cases.
- Unclear which specific cases require this setting.
New Display Setting Discovered
A new display option called 'Shift Left Edge' has been found in the iPhone Duo's settings. This feature, when activated, introduces a black border on the left side of the device's outer screen. The effect is that content displayed on the screen is shifted inward, away from the folding edge.
Purpose of the Feature
The setting's description indicates its purpose is to 'move content when you are using a case that partially covers the left edge of the outer display of your iPhone'. This suggests Apple anticipates certain case designs might interfere with screen visibility near the fold.
Case Compatibility Considerations
While Apple offers two first-party cases for the iPhone Duo, it is not yet clear if these or other third-party cases necessitate the use of this setting. The feature may be intended for more rugged case designs from accessory makers that could potentially overlap the screen's edge.
