Apple Pencil support is added to the iPhone Duo with iOS 27.2, arriving sooner than Apple originally suggested. Coverage across outlets says the feature works with the USB‑C Apple Pencil and supports drawing and related interactions on both the iPhone Duo’s inner and outer displays.
Multiple reports point to Max Weinbach confirming that Apple Pencil support is enabled on the device once iOS 27.2 Release Candidate is installed. One outlet additionally states that the iOS 27.2 release candidate is rolling out Monday, and that the support is present on both displays.
While the core details are consistent, outlets vary in emphasis. Some focus on the earlier-than-expected timing versus Apple’s prior target window, while others highlight that the feature is expected to reach the public next week or mention iOS 27.2 specifically as the update delivering Apple Pencil support.
Overall, sources agree on the update version (iOS 27.2), the accessory (USB‑C Apple Pencil), the availability via the Release Candidate, and functionality on both screens.
