NEW: MADE FOR IPHONE DUO ▸ Ready on day one for both displays of iPhone Duo. ▸ Open it in landscape and Home and Servers sit side by side — pick a location and connect without switching screens. ▸ Closed, turned or in Split View, the tab bar and buttons sit along the side of the screen, where iOS puts its own controls. ▸ iPad in landscape gets the same side-by-side layout.
