Reachability lets ‌iPhone Duo‌ users shift the content on the left or right side of the outer screen to make it easier to reach with a thumb.

When the ‌iPhone Duo‌ is closed, a short swipe left on the left edge or a short swipe right on the right edge will shift the outer display's content left or right.
