A leaker has activated Apple’s upcoming three-item Dynamic Island<\/a> mode inside the iOS 27<\/a> simulator, offering the first video demonstration of the new iPhone 18 Pro<\/a> feature.<\/p>\n

The leaker, known as pdfu<\/a>, posted a video showing the \u200cDynamic Island\u200c toggling between three simultaneous Live Activities, matching what Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman<\/a> described in his report earlier today<\/a>. “The new \u200cDynamic Island\u200c with 3 items is already supported in \u200ciOS 27\u200c,” pdfu wrote.<\/p>\n

According to pdfu, the underlying code requires a sensor region less than 100 layout points wide to enable the new mode, or below 16.57mm. Layout points are Apple’s device-independent unit for describing on-screen dimensions, and they scale differently depending on a display’s resolution. By comparison, pdfu notes that the sensor region on the current iPhone 17 Pro<\/a> measures 20.76mm, meaning Apple would need to shrink the hardware by roughly 20% to unlock the new software behavior.<\/p>\n

The \u200ciPhone 18 Pro\u200c and \u200ciPhone 18 Pro\u200c Max have been rumored to feature a smaller \u200cDynamic Island\u200c for months, but reports about support for a third, additional \u200cDynamic Island\u200c Live Activity is new. Since the iPhone 14 Pro launched in 2022, the \u200cDynamic Island\u200c has only supported two Live Activities, so adding a third seems like a worthwhile way to demonstrate the utility of shrinking the region.<\/p>\n
