A book, even before you open it.

Close it and listen. Open it and read. Stay with your book as your day unfolds, with the new iPhone Duo experience.

The iPhone Duo experience in Rise 0.1.2.

There’s a moment before you start reading. The book is still closed. You look at the cover, remember where the story left you, and decide to spend a little more time with it.

Rise 0.1.2 brings that feeling to iPhone Duo. Folded, your book’s cover fills the screen. Open it, and two pages are waiting. A familiar way to return to a story, with room to read or listen as your day unfolds.

Close it and listen. Open it and read.

You’ve been listening on the way home. Now there’s time to sit down. Open Duo and follow the words on the page, with the narration continuing where you are.

Later, it’s time to get moving again. Fold it closed, put in your AirPods, and take the next few pages with you. Your place stays with the book, so changing how you read doesn’t mean finding your way back.

A book that fits your day.

That sense of continuity carries through this update: a smoother return from your library to a chapter, a familiar narrator across your devices, and more helpful answers when a passage leaves you curious.

On Duo, it comes together in a simple gesture. A cover when you’re listening. Two pages when you’re reading. Your book, ready for a little more time together.
