  • Samsung has a workaround for apps that don’t specifically support large folding displays.
  • The company has a “narrow view” option on the Galaxy Z Fold 6, enabling a more smartphone-like app window.
  • This isn’t a perfect solution, but it’s still a handy feature for apps like Twitter.

Large foldable phones like the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 are great for videos, but one persistent problem with these folding screens is that some apps still don’t scale properly for them.

However, SamMobile spotted a curious addition in One UI 6.1.1 on the Galaxy Z Fold 6, dubbed “narrow view.” The option, which can be found by tapping an app’s icon in the recents menu, narrows the app’s UI as if it were running on a conventional smartphone screen. This change is particularly notable in the Twitter app, allowing you to view both the full image and the tweet without scrolling. Check out the outlet’s before and after screens below.
