There are countless sites boasting about “hidden iPhone features” and after reading them you realise that these tips aren’t really that hidden at all, anyone curious about their iPhone will find them.
So here’s a list of features that can’t be found unless you know exactly what you’re looking for.
1. Redial
In the Phone app, press the green call button on the keypad screen to make the last dialled number appear.
2. Clear your cache
Make your iPhone run faster by clearing out the cache in several of Apple’s apps using a secret trick. In the App Store, Podcasts, Music, Game Center, iMessage and Phone apps, tap on any single tab icon at the bottom of the screen 10 times in a row.
3. Make ID touch work faster
Save the same fingerprint multiple times as different entries and Touch ID will work much faster. This is especially useful on older phones like the iPhone 6 and iPhone 5s.
4. Spotlight conversions
Conversions are made quick and easy by just opening Spotlight and typing something like “20 euros in GBP,” and it will instantly perform the conversion.
5. Spotlight Maths
The calculator app is also not needed for simple math, just pull down to open Spotlight and type it right there.
6. Delete numbers in the calculator
You can delete single digits when you tap the wrong number by swiping left or right on the screen where the numbers appear.
7. Clear ram to make your phone run faster
Hold down the power button until you see “Slide to power off,” then let go and hold down the home button until the screen goes blank and your home screen reappears.
8. Reopen recently closed tabs
Want to re-read this article on your phone but you forgot what site you were reading it on in the first place? Simply tap and hold on the + symbol in Safari on the tab carousel view to open a screen that lists all of your recently closed tabs.
9. Find an iPhone’s owner
Found an iPhone? Simply ask Siri, “whose phone is this?” and it will show you so you can get in touch with him or her and return it.
10. Reachability
This is one of the new iPhones’ best features and there are still so many people who don’t know about it. Double-touch (don’t tap, touch) on the home button and the entire screen will shift down so you can reach the top without shifting your grip.
