In Split View

iPhone Duo is the first iPhone that can show two apps side by side, and every app takes part — including Lyft. Open it on the inner display, then add a second app next to it. You can save the pair and come back to it later.

Yes. Lyft is built for iPhone Duo — it runs full screen on the 7.6-inch inner display and adapts its layout for the fold.

Does Lyft work on the outer display?

Yes. iPhone Duo's 5.4-inch outer display behaves like a regular iPhone screen, so every iPhone app works there as usual.

Can I use Lyft in Split View on iPhone Duo?

Yes. On iPhone Duo every app can be placed side by side with another app on the inner display — developers don't need to opt in. How comfortable it feels at half width depends on the app's layout.
