Chess that arranges its board around the Duo's fold, with controls in the side bar
Does Deep Green work on iPhone Duo?
Yes, the developer says so: version 2.1.2 keeps the board on the upper half in laptop pose, centers it on the fold like a book, and spans the fold when open flat.
- App Store confirmedJoachim Bondo, the developer, in the App Store release notes and the changelog on deepgreen.app for version 2.1.2 (released October 13, 2026), which describe support for both displays and every fold pose. The App Store lists Cocoa Stuff as the developer and Joachim Bondo as the seller.
Adapted for the fold
- Book · Partly folded
A board shaped around the fold
In a laptop-like pose the board stays on the upper half. Held like a book, it centers on the fold, like a folding chess board.
- Open · Inner display
A board across the open display
Open flat, the board spans the fold and takes the space the bars leave it. The game controls move into the vertical bar.
