Reshi said that with the help of Google's Gemini 4 Carbon model, he successfully developed the WindowsiOS project, which runs a Windows 11 on Arm 24H2 system image on the iPhone Duo via a virtual machine and supports touch controls. The demo shows that with the iPhone Duo half-folded, the upper screen displays the system interface while the lower screen provides a virtual keyboard and multi-touch trackpad, resembling a mini laptop.

Google Executive Uses Gemini AI to Successfully Run Microsoft Win11 on Apple iPhone Duo

IT之家, November 14: 阿马尔 · 雷希 (Ammaar Reshi), head of product and design at Google AI Studio, posted on X on November 12, sharing a video demonstrating Windows 11 running on Apple's first foldable phone, the iPhone Duo, and open-sourced the WindowsiOS project on GitHub.

Lei Xi said that with the help of Google's Gemini 4 Carbon model, he successfully developed the WindowsiOS project, running the Windows 11 on Arm 24H2 system image on the iPhone Duo by way of a virtual machine, with touch control support.

According to the demo, with the iPhone Duo in a half-folded state, the upper half of the screen shows the system interface while the lower half provides a virtual keyboard and a multi-touch trackpad, presenting the form of a mini laptop. The project uses virtual network adapters, audio and other devices to let Windows access the phone's network, speaker and microphone.

The device does not need to be jailbroken; the approach uses software techniques such as just-in-time compilation and does not require replacing the existing iOS system. The project also claims support for Microsoft's Prism translation layer, which can attempt to run some traditional Windows applications, though compatibility with all software and games is not guaranteed.

For ordinary users, however, this open-source project has a fairly high technical threshold: deployment requires an Apple silicon Mac, development tools and a Windows ARM image; the optimization scripts also disable Defender real-time protection and Windows Update background services, among other things.
