How this is measured
What Reddit says about iPhone Duo restocks — and what the data says
Most of the folk wisdom in r/applestore and r/iphone is sincere, single-store, and stale within a day; here are the four claims we see most often, against 83 confirmed restocks in Taiwan.
| The claim | What the data says |
|---|---|
| “Stores restock overnight — check at 3 AM.” | 1% of restocks fell between midnight and 6 AM local time; 57% fell between 10 AM–noon. |
| “Apple only restocks on one weekday.” | Restocks landed on 4 of the 5 days we have tracked; a busiest weekday is named once the data spans 14 days. |
| “Call the store and ask when the truck comes.” | Apple publishes no restock schedule; what reaches apple.com is pickup inventory released online, which the store sees at the same moment as everyone else. |
| “If it says unavailable, it's sold out for good.” | 27 confirmed restocks at 2 stores in the last 24 hours say otherwise; each was “unavailable” again within minutes. |

How does PickupChecker count a restock?
A restock is counted when apple.com lists a configuration for in-store pickup at a store where it was not listed, confirmed by two checks that agree.
- Every Apple Store in Taiwan every 15 seconds; the stores alerts point at every 5
- Other trackers publish 8 seconds to 15 minutes; we compare published numbers only
- A first “available” is asked again about a second later before it counts
- A listing that disappears is confirmed on the next round
- The first sighting of a store, a failed or timed-out request: never a restock, never “out of stock”
- Hours and dates in each store's local time; “waves” = the same half hour across zones
- Other trackers' reports: their own labelled rows, never in a total
- Updated about every five minutes; the restock log itself is live
You are welcome to quote these numbers with a link to this page; PickupChecker is independent and not affiliated with Apple, and reads the same pickup availability anyone can see on apple.com, just far more often.
The other iPhone Duo questions
Questions
When does Apple restock the iPhone Duo in Taiwan?
Mostly in the morning: 57% of the 83 confirmed restocks since November 2, 2026 landed between 10 AM–noon in the store's local time, and 60% between 8 AM and noon. Apple publishes no schedule; this is PickupChecker's observed pattern, updated about every five minutes.
Does Apple restock the iPhone Duo on weekends in Taiwan?
Not yet in our data: 0 restocks fell on a Saturday or Sunday out of 83 (0%). Which weekday is busiest we do not state until the data spans 14 days; ours covers 5.
What time should I start checking?
If you check by hand, be on apple.com with pickup selected from 10 AM local time; that two-hour window has carried 57% of restocks. A typical restock was gone within 197 seconds at the median, so an alert that checks every 5 seconds (how alerts work) does what no refreshing can.
Why do all Apple Stores say the iPhone Duo is unavailable?
Because a restock is short: 20% of the 83 sold-out restocks we measured in Taiwan were gone within 2 minutes and 82% within 20. Right now 0 of 2 stores list one; at almost any other moment the honest reading of apple.com is “unavailable” even on a day with dozens of restocks (what “unavailable” means).
How do I get notified when my Apple Store restocks the iPhone Duo?
Set an alert for the store and the exact storage and colour: from then on that store is checked every 5 seconds and your phone is told about 3 seconds after a restock is confirmed (set up an alert; how it works).
