About 王者万象棋
王者万象棋 is made by Shenzhen Tencent Tianyou Technology Ltd and first came out on the App Store in September 2026. It's only on the China App Store, where it has 130,229 ratings. Version 1.1.1 came out on Sep 8, 2026 and needs iOS 11.0 or later. It's free to download.

On the inner display
Apps built with older SDKs are placed in a phone-sized safe area on a black background. Everything works; you just don't get the bigger screen.
Tencent announced 王者万象棋 at Huawei's Mate XT 2 launch in September 2026 and promoted its adaptation for that tri-fold phone's large screen, which shows the full board. The announcement did not mention iPhone or iPad.
In Split View
iPhone Duo is the first iPhone that can show two apps side by side, and every app takes part — including 王者万象棋. 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.
Duo-specific features
None confirmed yet. Duo-specific features include side toolbars, layouts that react to the fold, and content on the outer display while the app is open inside.

Questions
Does 王者万象棋 work on iPhone Duo?
It works, but with black bars. 王者万象棋 1.1.1 is built with the iOS 26.2 SDK, so iPhone Duo runs it in a phone-sized window on the inner display.
Does 王者万象棋 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 王者万象棋 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.
Why does 王者万象棋 have black bars on iPhone Duo?
Apps built with the iOS 26 SDK or earlier run in a phone-sized window on the inner display, and iOS 27 builds can still leave some space empty. The bars disappear once the developer rebuilds the app with the iOS 27.1 SDK — you only need to update the app.
When will 王者万象棋 fill iPhone Duo's inner display?
When its developer releases an update built with the iOS 27.1 SDK or later. We read the SDK of every new version of 王者万象棋 within about a day of its release and update this page.
What can I do about the black bars until then?
Use 王者万象棋 on the outer display, where it works like on any iPhone, or put it in Split View next to another app on the inner display so less of the screen goes unused.
