iOS 27 will be released later this month. Its new iPhone Handoff feature allows users to seamlessly switch between two phones using the same number. This feature was briefly mentioned at the WWDC keynote in June this year, but no details were provided. Now, there are demonstration videos showing how to set up this function in Xcode 27’s Device Hub. Users can pair two iPhones, setting one as the primary device and the other as a “companion”. Given that the Folded iPhone Ultra is expected to be released soon, enabling this feature in advance will help users avoid carrying bulky and expensive devices when going out.
