Recipes and videos, with more detail when the Duo sits half folded on the counter

Does NYT Cooking work on iPhone Duo?

Yes. Apple named NYT Cooking among the apps optimized for iPhone Duo: set half folded on a counter, it shows more detailed recipes with richer visuals to cook along with.

Launch partnerNamed by Apple in its Newsroom article of October 22, 2026, on apps optimized for iPhone Duo, with a quote from Camilla Velasquez, NYT Cooking's general manager. The App Store release notes for version 4.173.1 (released October 22, 2026) don't mention the Duo.

About NYT Cooking

NYT Cooking is The New York Times’s recipe app: thousands of tested recipes, videos, editor-curated collections and a Recipe Box for saving favorites and making a grocery list. It needs a subscription.

Apple named it in its October 22 roundup of apps for iPhone Duo. With the phone propped on the counter, said Camilla Velasquez, its general manager, “users can follow each step, set timers, and watch their favorite recipe creators demonstrate techniques, all with more room to see what they need.” The current release notes don’t mention the Duo.
