Overview
- The discovery, first shared by developer pdfu and reported across outlets on Monday, September 28, shows localization strings and renderer output for five StandBy faces not shown at Apple’s unveiling.
- The five new faces named in the code are Home Camera, Home Modular, Flow, Fade, and Snoopy with Home Camera able to show a single feed or a grid of up to nine camera feeds.
- Flow includes a 'ResponsiveArt' reference that suggests animated or responsive artwork while Snoopy appears to be a tvOS‑style screensaver face and Fade currently has no public details.
- Pdfu ran some of the faces in an iOS 27.1 renderer despite the Rushmore host app being absent from the simulator, which means code presence and test renders do not guarantee these faces will ship at launch.
- The leak adds to pre‑release reporting about the iPhone Duo’s software ahead of preorders on October 16 and the device’s October 23 on‑sale date and signals tighter smart‑home and visual features that could shape user experience if they arrive in final software.
