Do you know that your iPhone is
hiding some secrets from you? These surprising things can absolutely shift the
way you use your phone. Even if you’ve been a loyal user of iPhone for almost 8
years, trust me, there are a few things that you might not know about. Take a
look at the list below and feel free to add to it after reading through.
1. Switch Control
When I first heard about it, it
completely blew my mind. Could you imagine controlling your cherished iPhone
with the head? Switch Control was initially created to help people with some
disabilities. However, you can use it too. Access Switch Control through the
Accessibility menu of Settings, set it up and tilt your head to check something
on your iPhone.
2.
Undo your typos by simple shaking
It can be difficult to type on a
small screen, so many typos happen at times. That’s why Apple made this
wonderful and useful feature. Slightly shake your iPhone and it will bring up
several options to cancel and continue or to undo the typing. It’s so convenient,
isn’t it?
3.
Location-based reminder
It’s one of the most unknown things
many people don’t know about iPhone. Stop making those mental lists and try to
put Reminders to better use. Your iPhone can remind you to do something when
you leave or arrive at a certain place. Start with setting up a reminder, and
then tap the info icon to activate the location feature. Your iPhone will use
its GPS to remind you something when you are at that certain place.
4.
The burst feature
Are you disappointed that lots of
your photos turn out blurred? Thanks to the burst feature, your iPhone can take
plenty of photos at once. Just hold down the picture button for a continuous
stream of photos. Then, scroll through your gallery and you will certainly find
the most beautiful photo.
5.
Take photos with volume control
Often it can be difficult to take a
photo with the touch screen button. So try to take photos with the volume
controls on your iPhone. If you are using headphones, don’t worry. The volume
control buttons on the headphones can also take photos. Give it a try, you will
like it!
If you need to charge your iPhone as
fast as possible, put it on airplane mode and you phone will charge twice as
fast. That’s because your iPhone will not be wasting its battery trying to
find, for instance, Wi-Fi connections. I think it’s a useful thing every iPhone
user should know about.
I really like this great thing about
my iPhone. When someone calls me a few times each hour, it’s so annoying, but
luckily I can easily block this annoying caller. If you’re tired of constant
phone calls from your ex, go into the menu in your Settings and add his number
to the Blocked list. Now you can relax and enjoy the quiet, even if it’s only
for a while.
It’s useful to know things your
iPhone can do because your phone can really make your life a bit easier. Did
