Useful takeaways from this story.

Five unannounced StandBy faces were uncovered in iOS 27.1 localization strings and a simulator renderer: Home Camera, Home Modular, Snoopy, Flow, and Fade.

There are five widget layouts for clock faces that support widgets: StandBy, Stacked, Top, Middle, and Bottom.

# What this leak shows A leaker known as pdfu shared localization strings and renderer output tied to iOS 27.1 that expose StandBy faces Apple did not show during the iPhone Duo unveiling. The discoveries focus on StandBy — the interface that presents clock faces, widgets, and other displays when an iPhone is idle — now adapted for the iPhone Duo's dual-screen folding design.

# The new StandBy faces The leak names five faces Apple hasn't publicly demonstrated:

  • Home Camera: Displays a HomeKit camera feed. It can show a single camera or a grid with as many as nine simultaneous camera feeds.
  • Home Modular: Appears to be a smart-home–focused layout, likely surfacing HomeKit controls or status tiles.
  • Fade: Listed in strings without additional details.

Apple's marketing materials already showed several StandBy faces such as Analog, Digital, Classic Calendar, Weather, Photos, Memories, Shared Albums, and Modular. The newly revealed five would expand that set.

# Customization and widgets Localization strings and the renderer include details about customization:

  • Swipe gestures are supported for quick visual adjustments within StandBy.
  • Clock faces that support widgets will offer five widget layout options: StandBy, Stacked, Top, Middle, and Bottom.

# Timing and practical context Apple announced the iPhone Duo earlier in September and plans to open pre-orders on October 16 with a launch on October 23. The leaked StandBy faces and editor are part of iOS 27's features for the Duo and may be expanded or changed before release.

# What to watch next

  • Whether Apple confirms these five faces in official materials or reserves some for particular device sizes or future Home devices.
  • How Home Camera handles live feeds and privacy prompts when multiple cameras are shown.
  • Whether Flow's animations and Snoopy's behavior include context-aware interactions (music, motion, holidays) or remain decorative.

Overall, the leak fills in user-facing details about StandBy on the foldable iPhone Duo and shows Apple is building more Home-focused and playful face options alongside the previously announced clock, calendar, and photo faces.
