Google Maps updated for iPhone Duo
Apps are being updated one by one for the foldable iPhone Duo. Google Maps has also joined them and now offers better compatibility.
Following the launch of the iPhone Duo, more applications are updating to support the foldable iPhone. WhatsApp, Instagram, YouTube, and many popular apps work compatibly with the iPhone Duo screen. Now, the Google Maps app has also received a major revision for the Duo.
The Google Maps app has been updated to fully support the screens of Apple's foldable phone, the iPhone Duo. Released on the App Store as version 26.44.4, the app now fills the inner and outer screens of the device without leaving black borders on the edges.
Black Borders From Previous Version Removed
Standard iPhone users could use the Maps app without issues. However, the older version lacked support for the foldable iPhone. The new update maximizes device compatibility. The circular status bar and vertical black strips on the right side of the inner and outer screens are no longer present.


In the new version, the map view expands across the entire inner display. The search bar is placed in the top-left corner of the interface layout. The Explore, You, and Contribute tabs are gathered in the left-hand panel, while map controls are positioned on the right side of the screen.

Google did not mention specific changes for the iPhone Duo model in its update notes. However, installing the update reveals the changes in display support directly.

Foldable Screen Updates in the App Ecosystem
Google Maps has joined the software adapting to the foldable iPhone model. Earlier this week, Zoom along with various Microsoft apps including Word, PowerPoint, Excel, and OneNote received optimization updates for the iPhone Duo.
