Duo Typewriter
Half-fold your iPhone Duo into a vintage portable typewriter. Paper rises out of the platen above, glass keys clack below, and the bell rings at the margin.

Distraction-free writing, the way it used to sound.
Half-fold your iPhone Duo and it becomes a portable typewriter. A sheet of paper rises out of the platen on the upper half. The lower half is the machine: glossy enamel, round glass-topped keys on metal stems, a chrome space bar and a carriage-return lever you swipe.
EVERY LETTER IS STRUCK
No two letters land the same. Each strike has its own ink density, slight tilt and offset, with heavier hits now and then. Switch the two-tone ribbon to type in red.
IT FEELS MECHANICAL
• The carriage slides left as you type
• The bell rings near the margin
• Swipe the lever to return the carriage
• Clacks, thunks and the zip of the return, all with haptics
WRITE FORWARD
Draft mode works like the real thing: backspace strikes over with XXXX so you keep going. Prefer to erase? Switch to Edit mode.
SHEETS AND DOCUMENTS
• A full sheet rolls out and a fresh one feeds in
• Keep many documents in the drawer
• Export a PDF that looks exactly like your typed pages, or plain text
• Word and sheet counters on the machine
FOUR COLOURWAYS
Mint Holiday, Cherry, Navy and Ivory.
Works with a hardware keyboard too. Your writing stays on your iPhone. No ads, no accounts.
