Improvfe Your Life With These iOS Tricks
MAKE MORE OF YOUR iPHONE
Nearly six months has passed since the release of iOS 10, and the mobile operating system is still the world’s most advanced. Apple is expected to unveil the next iteration of iOS at the WWDC 2017 Keynote on June 5 in San Jose, with rumors suggesting features such as a Dark Mode and a Snapchat-style video sharing app will be added. Until then, here are 25 fantastic tips for helping you make the most out of your iPhone and iPad.
1. UNLOCK PHONE WITHOUT PRESSING THE HOME BUTTON
It was one of the most annoying parts of iOS 10 – the removal of the ‘swipe to unlock’ feature that many iPhone users had become accustomed to. It’s possible to unlock the screen without pressing down on the Home button, however, and that is by going to Settings >> Touch ID & Passcode and toggling the Rest Finger to Open option. Now, you can unlock your iPhone simply by placing your finger on the Home button.
2. MAKE YOUR FLASHLIGHT BRIGHTER
If you have an iPhone with 3D Touch capabilities – that is, the iPhone 6S onwards – you can control the brightness levels of your flashlight. Open your control panel and long press your flashlight icon, which will then allow you to select Bright, Medium or Low light levels.
