00:02:27 example you can pinch out with three fingers and it'll quickly paste it this also works with text and honestly it's just so much easier and quicker than having to go into the share sheet finding the app you want to share it to and then the person this is just quick and easy and even though that one's pretty forgotten I'm saving my three most useful and forgotten tips for the end okay now here's some quick tricks on the keyboard you must never forget so a lot of people know by now that you can hold down the space bar and easily move

00:02:59 the cursor around around but what a lot of people don't know is if you tap anywhere on the keyboard while holding down then move the cursor it'll actually start selecting text then when you're done selecting just tap on the keyboard again and now you know how to precisely select text then if you ever want to quickly type in a special character or number just press and hold down the special character key select what you want then when you're done just let go and carry on typing and did you know if

00:03:25 you want to select any word just tap twice and it'll select the word or trible tap if you want to select the entire paragraph and if you tap and hold onto any letter it'll actually show you a bunch of special characters and this even works with the currency key too just so Nifty and while we're in the notes app something else many people forgot about is if you draw any shape with the markup tool in order to make it look better all you have to do is just pause at the end of the shape and your iPhone will automatically fix it and

00:03:53 this works wherever you find the markup tool so if you're in photos you can quickly draw your shape then just hold and B so whether it's on photos notes the mail app or even on screenshots don't forget this sweet trick to correct shapes but here's a really cool tip you can do with the search bar let's say you need to quickly do a calculation just type in the search bar like 25 - 7 and check it out it'll give you the answer 18 which is exactly how many tips and tricks I still have to show you guys and

00:04:23 while we're on the home screen another little trick a lot of people have forgotten about is instead of moving apps one by one which can be really tedious you can actually tap onto a few of them to quickly stack them up and then move them together simultaneously just so much easier and if you don't like where they are don't forget that you can just shake to undo okay check this out open camera tap take picture you can control your entire phone with just your voice to do this it's so easy you just have to go inside

00:05:02 the accessibility settings then scroll right to the bottom where you'll find accessibility shortcuts just set this to Voice Control and now when you click the side button three times open photos bam and if you ever want to find out what control commands there are just ask it to show names and then you can just ask it to tap on any one of the names and open them up pretty simple but I also have a little trick on how to make your iPhone's camera super snap and to do that you'll just need to go inside

00:05:32 your camera settings and turn on use volume up for burst so now whenever you quickly need to take some pics just open up the camera app hold the volume up button and it'll rapidly take some pcks then inside your photos app all those photos will be in one picture and if you click on this button you can actually go inside all those photos and pick exactly which one you want so sweet so you know how annoying it is when hello hi can I interest you in some toaster Insurance where did you get my number from oh that's not important

00:06:10 ma'am would you well this next trick will help make sure you don't get any spam calls so I guarantee a lot of you guys have forgotten all the places and websites or forms where you've filled in a bunch of your information about yourself I'm talking your email address for free Wi-Fi your phone number for taxi services I mean it's kind of crazy just how much personal information we give out so if you hop onto Chrome or Safari and search for a company called incog and sign up basically what incog does is crawls the internet every single

00:06:40 day to find any information about you that's out there on the internet and actually removes it for you cuz the problem is if you don't remove your personal information it'll get sold off to some shady people or a bunch of other companies that'll use that to either scam you or sell you things you don't even want and since I started using Inc me they've removed my personal details from so many different sites it shows me how many companies have been collecting my data it shows you who they are and

00:07:08 even gives a status updates on how much they've removed plus I have a code for you guys in case you're interested in trying it out just use hailes at checkout and it'll get you 60% off your first year now that's pretty sweet now if you want some magic tricks Siri can actually help you out and to do this all you got to do is hold down the side button and say lumos it's on now and to turn it off just say KN it's off now now that's magical there's also ACO Spotify or AO YouTube to quickly open apps AO

00:07:50 Instagram so that's a cool way to open up apps but let me show you some sweet app [Music] tricks okay now how many of us forgot that our iPhone actually has a measuring app it comes natively installed and it uses your iPhone's camera to measure things kind of like a tape measure but what's particularly forgotten about this app is that it also comes with a leveling tool so the next time you're busy hanging up a painting or putting up a TV this app can really help you out then believe it or not the weather app

00:08:25 also has a little forgotten trick to it too inside the weather app if you tap on this little map icon you can actually see a realtime interactive map with all the wind speeds around the globe you can even change the map from wind to temperature instead which will show you exactly how cool or hot certain places are and there is even rain so it'll show you exactly where in the globe it's currently raining and also how much it's raining then let's not lie but we all love taking photos of our food but did

00:08:53 you know that inside the photo app if you go into a picture of one of your meals and swipe up from the bottom then press the visual lookup icon your iPhone will actually go and get a recipe for you of the meal in your photo so now if you ever find something tasty while you're at an about or online just snap a pick or take a screenshot of it and you can make it at home now I'm pretty sure we've all fallen asleep while a video or Spotify is playing and if that's you then you need to know that if you go into the

00:09:25 clock app then in timers and set a time for when you think you'll fall asleep then click on when time ends and scroll right to the bottom and select stop playing cuz what this will do is when the timer goes off it'll actually stop any music or video from playing and also lock your phone so Nifty and while we're talking about timers I'm pretty sure we all know about the timer icon that you can use to quickly set a timer but not many people remember that you can actually press and hold down on it and

00:09:52 set a timer even faster I mean I use the timer all the time and this just makes it so so much quicker and easier then if you want to increase your focus or level up your concentration you got to know about this inside the control panel if you tap and hold on the ear icon you'll see something called background sounds and if you turn this on you'll see a bunch of different sounds you can choose from that your iPhone will play that is actually meant to help you focus study or sleep better so the iPhone is always getting a

00:10:25 bunch of cool new features but a cool feature that a lot of people have forgotten about is is back tap this is actually super useful and to turn it on all you have to do is go back inside your accessibility settings then enter touch and right at the bottom you'll see it over there back tap where you can then customize the double tap or triple tap personally I have double tap to take a screenshot and triple tap to lock the screen but you can set it to pretty much anything okay now check this out if you

00:10:56 go into the phone app then to your contacts and select a contact to edit how many of you forgot that you can actually set a custom ringtone for that contact I mean this is probably one of the best ways to quick and easily identify who's actually calling you but what if your phone's AR silent well you can then choose to add a custom vibration through the haptic settings which will then give that contact their own unique vibration pattern and something else people didn't know even existed on an iPhone is that you can

00:11:25 even create your own unique vibration pattern for that contact all you got to do is just tap out the pattern on your iPhone screen and B bam now whenever that contact gives you a ring that new pattern will vibrate but now these next three tricks are not only the most forgotten but are probably the most useful ones that you should definitely start using so the first trick has actually got to do with screenshots cuz I bet you forgot that in Safari or Chrome if you take a screenshot and tap to open it up

00:11:58 in here you can actually change it to a full page which will turn this screenshot into the entire web page this is so Nifty cuz inside the files app you can then just open that screenshot and copy any text from it or you can just save screenshots to the photos app and keep your recipes from the web this way sweet for the second most forgotten trick inside your photos app did you know that if you have a video playing and you pause it you can actually tap and hold down onto any text in the video then select it to copy which can come in

00:12:30 really handy with documents for example just take a video of them and then scan afterwards just so useful then for the third trick and this one's super simple when you have a lot of apps open instead of closing them one by one you can actually swipe up with three fingers to close three of them at once by the way you may have noticed I've been using iOS 18 throughout this entire video so make sure you subscribe to see that but I'll see you in the next one Turtles [Music]
