Even though a lot of apps have been updated for the iPhone Duo, they sometimes still have issues.

Even though a lot of apps have been updated for the iPhone Duo, they sometimes still have issues.

Apple’s iPhone Duo has been officially on sale for two weeks, and the company said today that the App Store now has over 100,000 apps that are built for the foldable.

“It’s been wonderful to see how quickly developers have embraced iPhone Duo, and we’re grateful for their creativity and innovation,” Susan Prescott, Apple’s VP of Worldwide Developer Relations, says in a statement. “Today there are well over 100,000 apps built for iPhone Duo already live on the App Store, and thousands of optimized apps are being added to the store each day.” Prescott adds that “The enthusiasm has been incredible, and we’re excited to see the pace of updates continue to accelerate as more and more apps optimize for iPhone Duo.”

Although there are now many apps that are optimized for the Duo, they can sometimes still have some issues. When the Duo launched, users noted that the Instagram app was a little messy even though Apple gave it the “Made for iPhone Duo” label, and Instagram chief Adam Mosseri called the Duo a “bit of a tricky form factor.”
