Apple released the first iOS 27 developer beta today, and code for the update includes references to features that can only belong to a foldable iPhone.

iPhone Ultra coming this fall, and iOS 27 code references foldable features

Today Apple unveiled iOS 27, which will launch to all users this fall. When it ships, it will include support for the first foldable iPhone: the iPhone Ultra.

The iPhone Ultra is expected to have support for side-by-side app multitasking and iPad-like app layouts.

And in today’s iOS 27 beta and developer frameworks, Apple has unintentionally leaked references to the first ever foldable iPhone.

As spotted by Sam Henri Gold, iOS 27 frameworks reference “foldState” and “angleDegrees,” and include a check to get the total count of built-in displays.

9to5Mac has verified the existence of these references, which were not present in iOS 26 at all.

The references can be found not only in developer frameworks, but also in the code for the iOS 27 beta.
