It feels like iPhones can do everything but take out the trash. Besides the obvious phone calls, we can monitor the latest movies and TV shows, and update our social sites. They store our music and give us directions to navigate to the nearest shopping center. You might think you understand all your iPhone can do but here are some lesser-known tricks you with thankful to learn.
Saving Time
If you find it problematical to type a Web address on the small on-screen keyboard, before clicking in the address bar on your browser, turn your iPhone to a horizontal position. The keyboard will now be larger, making it easier to type an “e” and not a “w”. This is a timesaving tip for making phone calls. When browsing the Web, if you find telephone number you need to call, simply tap the phone number on the screen and your phone will call it.
More Efficient Typing
This tip from Apple makes for faster typing. When using the on-screen keyboard tap the space bar twice at the end of a sentence. This will automatically add a period and capitalize the next word you are about to type. If you use a lot of special characters, you can get them by touching and holding a letter. Then you’re able to chose the character you want and insert it into the message.
Quick Printing, Personalized Entertainment
You can print messages and documents quickly from your iPhone if you own an AirPrint-enabled printer. To print an email message, simply tap the Reply icon and then select “Print.” This will automatically send your email to your printer. If you want to print a full Web page, tap the “Action” icon and, again, select “Print.”
For you music lovers out there, you may create a music playlist on the go. Access the iPod app, tap the “Playlists” icon select the “Add Playlist” icon. Rename your playlist and add any video or song on your phone by merely touching it.
