This feature allows users to swipe from the edge of the exterior display to bring the screen content closer to their thumb, making it easier to operate the device with a single hand. The Reachability function, which has existed in various forms on iPhones since 2014, is now adapted for the iPhone Duo's unique foldable design. AI
