Day 1 of iPhone Duo! 🎉
We've been cooking something special for the Duo launch.
Duet: a PDF reader with a canvas, built to make the most of everything the Duo and its foldable form factor have to offer. Read on one side, highlight what matters, and brainstorm on the other.
From designing and developing to testing on an actual Duo, polishing the app, and shipping the website - all in just two weeks. Easily the fastest we've ever shipped a polished app!
It's now live on the App Store, also available for iPhone and iPad.
Do give it a spin! 🚀

Only Blr weather can make a 3:30PM office view look like this 🌧️
Oh no... Uncle Rudy might bully other apps at @RevenueCat #shipaton
Submitted our Angry Tasks app! Built for Accountability, Uncle Rudy roasts you if you don't complete your tasks
Also featured on the AppStore under Apple Intelligence!
Uncle Rudy is submitted 👍 #shipaton
We built an app that roasts procrastinators, then submitted it 2 minutes before the deadline.
Of course, we got a good scolding from him :)
Wish him luck @RevenueCat 🤞

The playful landing page combines expressive cartoon characters, sticker-like graphics, oversized device mockups, and a dense modular feature mosaic.

When @sabeshbharathi walked in with an iPhone 18 pro "bragging" about how good the A20 pro chip is for on-device AI - we just had one question "prove it"
He ended up building RapidBench that tests exactly that.
1. Inference
2. Training
3. Image Gen
4. Neural Engine
We're all aboard the on-device AI future. Many more apps in pipeline, watch it. Download TestFlight to score your device!
Big win for on-device AI ‼️ Introducing RapidBench.
iPhone 18 Pro is supposedly the best phone for on-device AI. We built RapidBench to put that to test 💪🏽
RapidBench is a benchmark to measure how well an iPhone performs on AI workflows. Here's how iPhone 18 Pro performs against the iPhone 17 Pro:
iPhone 18 Pro: 5,387
iPhone 17 Pro: 3,596
The iPhone 18 Pro performs around 50% better.
---
RapidBench tests the phones across 4 AI workflows:
🧠 Inference: Gemma 4 E2B solves 20 math problems on the GPU. We measure speed when fresh, speed after 2 minutes of load, and time to first token.
📈 Training: the phone fine-tunes Qwen3 0.6B to write SQL in 150 QLoRA steps, then tests it on tables it has never seen.
🌄 Image: Bonsai Image, a 4B-parameter FLUX.2 model, generates three 512×512 images.
⚙️ Neural Engine: an EDSR model upscales a photo 2× through Core AI.
---
What this means: The newer iPhones are getting geared up to support heavier and more sustained AI workflows - including agentic actions across apps and services powered by local inference. And it's only going to get better!

Spotted Uncle Rudy on the list of finest app icons at @iconmuseum 🧡
App icons rarely get the credit they deserve, so seeing ours share a wall with some of the apps we’ve always looked up to feels like all those obsessive iterations have finally paid off. 🫶
A little appreciation post for the Uncle Rudy app icon, because app icons deserve more credit than they get.
It's the first thing you see and the thing you'll stare at every single day, so we didn't want to generate it. Every line here is hand-drawn. In a sea of AI icons, we wanted one that feels like someone actually lives inside it, and one you'd grow attached to 🧡

The fact this came out of @Snorlxz's intrusive thoughts is proof that some intrusive thoughts must be shipped as "an iOS 27 app, compatible with Siri AI and uses on-device intelligence to roast you" 🙇🏻♂️
Always. Trust. The Process.
Try our app, uses on-device intelligence to roast you if you don't complete your tasks 😡
Now on AppStore
He was feisty from day 1. It just took a dozen iterations to give him a proper glow-up and a home on the App Store 🥱
More such BTS dropping soon. Follow @cengines_studio

Uncle Rudy is finally live on the App Store 🙌
After 1k+ TestFlight users, endless iterations, and a team that’s poured so much into getting this right, we’re ready to share it with the world.
Would love your support in spreading the word! 🫶
Hello, iOS 27. 👋
Take a tour of the latest updates, including the introduction of Siri AI, an entirely new version of Siri that draws on your personal context and helps you search for content or take action across a variety of apps.

Wow, I asked Siri to add a reminder and it used @cengines_studio app instead of default reminder ?
@sabeshbharathi
It couldn't get better than this 👀 best iPhone Duo mockups are on @mocraftapp
