Start with the official design resources

What has actually been checked

Apple’s design resources directory currently links an iOS and iPadOS 27 UI kit in Figma. That is the source of the resource link on this page.

We have not checked the linked file’s contents, component coverage, licensing details or whether a signed-in account is required. Do not treat the directory listing as evidence that a particular iPhone Duo layout is included.

The directory also lists iPhone Duo Product Bezels in Photoshop and PNG formats. These are presentation assets, not native layout measurements or an interactive prototype. Read the terms attached to the actual asset before using it in client or commercial work.

Give your first file a small brief

Create one flow with a clear beginning and end. A list leading to a detail view is a useful exercise because it makes hierarchy visible without requiring a complete app.

Keep placeholder content realistic in length. An interface that works only with short headings will tell you little about a client’s actual content. Record the design assumptions next to the frame rather than hiding them in your own notes.

Separate a design resource from a prototype

A UI kit is a starting resource, not automatically the interaction you want to demonstrate. Assemble your own screen, choose a starting point for the flow, and review the sharing settings before sending a link.

Open the link in the context your reviewer will use. Check whether they see the intended starting point and whether access is appropriate. Do not publish a private client file just to make it easier to preview.

Choose the artifact for the task: a UI kit for components, a bezel for a presentation image, or a prototype with a starting flow for interaction review. Do not assume that a device mockup contains a responsive Figma file or that a directory thumbnail is licensed for reuse.

Preview only after checking access

Try the built-in Simulator example first to learn the controls. Then use the address field for your own accessible prototype. If embedding is blocked, return to the original Figma presentation rather than claiming the preview succeeded.

This resource does not have a “verified example” badge. A future case study should earn that label through an actual preview check of the specific, authorized file.
