00:00When Apple drops its foldable iPhone, Samsung is going to have a massive problem, and it's not
00:05because of the hardware. Allegedly, the iPhone Ultra or iPhone Fold is going to have an iPad OS
00:11like experience, so I have the iPad mini here and the Galaxy Z Fold 8 to compare app optimization.
00:17Sometimes Samsung has it figured out. TikTok looks great, docking comments on the side even as you
00:23scroll. But on X, iPad mini gives you a real two-column layout. On the Fold, it's just a
00:28blown-up phone app. Instagram? Comments cover the photo on Samsung but slide off to the side on
00:33iPad. Slack is even worse with so much empty space on the Fold. iPad gives you your full channel list.
00:39Obviously, Google's own apps look great on Android, but if Samsung and Google can't convince third-party
00:45devs to optimize their apps, Apple could win from day one.
