How this is measured
Each cell counts RestockWire's confirmed restocks (two checks agreeing; a store's first sighting never counted) that landed in that local hour of that weekday over the window, in the store's own time zone. A pattern is stated from 5 restocks over 3 different days, a weekday only once the data spans 14 days — ten restocks in one burst are one event, not a habit.

What hour do San Francisco Apple Stores restock the iPhone Duo?

10–11 AM is the busiest hour, with 16 restocks; mornings carry the day, with 91% of the 35 in San Francisco landing between 8 AM and noon Pacific time.

  • Measured from the check that saw the listing to the check that saw it gone: an upper bound, never rounded down
  • Why a hand-refreshed apple.com nearly always says “unavailable”: the status explained

What counts as a restock on this page?

Two checks in a row seeing apple.com switch one configuration from “currently unavailable” to available for pickup at one of the 3 stores in San Francisco. One check alone never counts.

  • Cadence: 15 seconds for every Apple Store in San Francisco, 5 for stores with an alert
  • Confirmation: a first “available” is re-asked about a second later
  • Sell-out: confirmed on the next round of checks
  • Never counted: a store's first sighting, a failed request, a timeout. None of them is a restock or a sell-out
  • Clock: each store's local time, Pacific time across San Francisco
  • Source: RestockWire's own checks only; other trackers' launch-week reports appear separately on the national page
  • This page refreshes roughly every five minutes; the restock log is live

San Francisco iPhone Duo restocks: questions

What time should I watch for an iPhone Duo restock in San Francisco?

Mostly between 9–11 AM Pacific time: that window holds 83% of the 35 iPhone Duo restocks RestockWire confirmed at the 3 Apple Stores in San Francisco since October 29, 2026, with the median one gone in about 40 seconds. The single busiest hour is 10–11 AM (16 restocks) and 91% landed between 8 AM and noon; Apple publishes no schedule, so this is RestockWire's own count over the 3 stores, refreshed roughly every five minutes.

Is the iPhone Duo more likely to come back on a weekend in San Francisco?

It happens: 9 restocks of 35 fell on a Saturday or Sunday (26%). A busiest weekday is named only once the data spans 14 days; it spans 10.

Which store in San Francisco should I put an alert on first?

Apple Stonestown has the most: 14 confirmed restocks on 3 days since October 29, 2026, usually near 10 AM local time, the last Nov 6, 9:05 AM. Each store restocks on its own, so add the others you can reach.

How many seconds do I have once a San Francisco restock lands?

About 42 s: that is the median of 35 timed restocks in San Francisco, with 100% gone inside 2 minutes and 100% inside 20 (US median 74 s). Each figure runs from the check that saw the listing to the check that saw it gone, so it is an upper bound.

What does an alert for San Francisco cost, and how fast is it?

From $5 a month: the stores you pick go on the 5-second wire and a push lands about 3 s after a restock is confirmed. One alert is one store × one exact configuration, so pick San Francisco stores in the storage and color you would buy, then read how alerts work and the 20-second checkout.
