@alexgraves909310 months ago You can add a sleep timer to the white noise! Go to the timer section in the clock app, set your time, and then below it says “When timer ends” and choose stop playing. Hope that helps someone! 8

@jaeshaswaylast year Thank you for the back tap! A feature I use not listed in this video is Assistive Touch. I use the single touch custom action to take screenshots. Long press will bring up the control center. Thanks for the video. It inspired me to go exploring again in my iPhone settings. ✌🏽♥️🙏🏽 ... 4

@MyDogSteppedOnaBeee2 years ago From control center accessibility assistive touch I can unmute my iPhone, do a screenshot, SOS, restart my iPhone if it's giving me problems.

@jonathanalves3101last year Thank you !!!
This was great info !!! 1
@

@JenniChiodo2 years ago These are great features! Do you know how to use the text effects while in zoomed view. I like my icons bigger but I’ve discovered the only way to use this feature is to put in standard view. Otherwise when I try to use the feature the top is blocked and hard to switch from bubble to screen! ... 1
@

@DIESEL06282 years ago I use both back taps-- Dt 4 flashlight and 3T 4 screenshot -- it's a very helpful feature!!
@

@ClarkNethers2 years ago I started using the shortcuts to create automation. There are many youtube videos on it and you would be amazed what you can do. 1
@

@ohiohoney8 months ago Something I use all the time that others don’t know when I tell them is “hey siri, take a screenshot” 1
@

@melissaealylast year I’ve been waiting for messengering effects too!
@

@CatMemeEnthusiastlast year you can actually use a media app to make the white noise, then make a timer and set it to "stop playing". 2
@

@cynthiaj.simmons870last year Cool I didn't know this feature on my iPhone SE 2020 until I just watched your video and I tried it out it's so cool and awesome and going to try it out on my iPhone 11 I'm giving myself for Mother's Day next month!!! 😁📱❤️ ... 1
@

@anthonyferrara22222 years ago I use a double tap to enable a screen shot. Super convenient!!! 1
@

@itsnatecraft9 months ago The most underrated thing is using screen recording just record a youtube video or Netflix movie or TV show and you will be able to watch all those recordings with sound in ur photos app works good when on plane rides without wifi or if u dont have wifi all the time ...
@

@JayGLakbayDavao2 years ago 1 great feature is for I guess under accessibility where you can have your all type of messages read by siri if you are away or cant reach your fon. I guess it was built for blind assist but it does great work too for us when we are quite full with our hands and wants to know what the message was all about. ... 1
@

@markalancirino2 years ago I use the magnifier a lot via triple tap. Even with glasses, I have a hard time reading the small print on things. (Side Rant: Why do DVD covers put the one piece of info you want to know - movie duration - in 3 point type?) ... 3
@

@jameskelly94572 years ago On your phones timer, you can select shut down after time runs out. 1
@

@hassanaskari8693last year can you teach us about danamic peninsula ? the notch island for iphone 13 or older
@

@cs0k1skex232 years ago Shortcuts is so f underrated, it's like a new world if u learn how to use it
@

@robertbrzheintzbrz1472 years ago I should probably start my own channel. I knew all that, maybe because I bought the iPhone 3G when it came out in 2008, and I’m a tech guy.
I use assistive touch for screenshots, rebooting and locking (long press) on the phone and the iPad. The other underrated function is Guided Access, that I use when I hand the phone to others (specially kids), so that they can’t do anything outside the app that I start for them, and only play for like 10 minutes. ...
@

@Malayalizombie2 years ago Than you for all the useful tips, but for No.9 you said, when this is on Flash will turn off instead should be the other way round, right…
@

@HardToSnipe2 years ago Hy :) What is your Display P3 color number? i want to setup this background :) thank u so much!
@

@juanandmaria4381last year How to set up shortcuts in your safari?
@

@Lexiiboolast year For the measure of your height on iPhone 13 Pro it doesn’t have that option in settings to even turn it on to get someone’s height measurements before taking a picture
@

@giao23802 years ago I like the white noise but I wish it had a timer because since downloading 16.2, my battery drains too fast.
@

@devonaabel11282 years ago Where do I find all the features. I have an iPhone 12 if that matters. I am also blind. If there are any shortcuts.
@

@guitarplayerpatty2 years ago Wait, that person was actually 6ft 7in!!!!?? 5
@

@ronroca43872 years ago Just to add to parked car tip, if you use apple car play it automatically marks where your car is parked when you leave your car. 3
@

@developer-of-things11 months ago The imperial system is better for measuring someone's height because you don't have to remember a crazy number of centimeters or count decimal places of meters. I'm 6'2"
@

@chocolatnoir1108last year I wish apple music has a timer, just like Spotify.
@

@rodl122 years ago The Do Not Disturb setting "Until I leave this location" does not seem to be available on my 13 Pro. Is this for the 14 only?
@

@BommeltjeNL2 years ago I have triple tap set up since ages, but I notice my torch to be on at times I don't want it (and then me wondering why that is, oh triple tap). When you ask Siri to save your parking space, it'll say that it saved it. But when you ask Siri where is my car it doesn't know!!!? You need to open Apple Maps and hope it is still marked... ...
@

@johnmarston69982 years ago Back tap seems cool but the 3 tap option hardly ever works for me
@

@dustytables3638last year Useful tips, Thank You.
But...I have to ask.
At or so did you really say: "One time I forgot where I parked my car while going to an Apple store for a Genius Bar appointment"?
😄 ...
@

@ElohAraphel2 years ago The back tap wasn’t practical for me, i tried it with and without a case, i had to tap quite hard to make it work on the iPhone 14 Pro, i still have the setting on but i stopped using it.
@

@julielemoine39542 years ago You actually can set a timer for your white noise or whatever you’re listening to stop playing. Go into timer, set your timer, click when timer ends, scroll down to stop playing and select it & when your timer is done it will turn off any music or background sounds you have playing. ... 2
@

@Bella_B08036 months ago Back tap does not work through my phone case
@

@user-yt1xj7qw9i8 months ago When I went to Safari I didn’t didn’t see the edit so I can change my back ground
@

@rayeehines53178 months ago If you go to guided access in the settings it will show you how to set it up to where when you triple click the home button it will lock your phone on whatever app you want . So your child can watch YouTube , Netflix , or Disney without steady pressing pause or looking thru other apps & texting & calling everyone on your contact list 😂 lol instead they will need to wait for you to unlock the screen ...
@

@giao23802 years ago iMessage effects have been here tho. 🤷‍♀️
@

@C.S.A_Official2 years ago I like your iPhone 13 Pro Max colour 🔥
@

@Oleg__2 years ago — just activate it through the Control Center. 1
@

@basically_chris2 years ago Wow, you friend is one and a half washing machines tall!
@

@julieb7378 months ago The back tap isn’t used because most people have a back cover on phone for protection .
@

@abarzua21ablelast year Oh cool. I'm gonna have to try that measuring someones height
@

@Greg-fg1rd2 years ago A person suggesting people use the LED flash for notifications who aren't hearing impaired is a borderline social agitator. No one wants to see your phone flash in a restaurant, movie, coffee shop, or any where. 🙄👊🏻😄 44
@

@cristiancosneanu22522 years ago closed the video on "Feet and inches are actually a better way of getting height"... 4
@

@avesaoirsepraesens35372 years ago Righhhhhhht - WHY NO SLEEP TIMER FOR BACKGROUND NOISE - like - I feel like they HAVE to know this already and just didn't do it - like for why tho - I know they know this - WHY
@

@aaaaaa-qc9ot3 months ago Why hidden? These are not hidden at all.
@

@rosmakloma2 years ago FBISurveillanceVan....really? That was funny YEARS ago, but it's almost 2023 1
@

@yaroslavbilous88552 years ago Feet and inches is obviously the better way to get someone’s height😂i don’t think it’s that obvious for the rest of the world that uses metric system
@

@WilliamWallis2 years ago Double-tap: Opens my Vax card in Notes
Triple-tap: Home Screen
@

@Resist42 years ago Do you want us to comment about a feature. Nice try, because getting comments brings income in for this channel.
@

@DrAlyElashry2 years ago Poor guys, You should try Samsung features 😆 I can't count them tbh they are uncountable 😆😆😆
@

@HALWG512 years ago Contrary to popular belief, there are many people who don't need or want the Pro features on iPhone. So, you should concentrate on features that all phones can use. The back taps are pretty lame.
@

@evenito94552 years ago Feet and inches for height? Absolutely barbaric
@

@benke9582 years ago This is some next level bs we knew since ages
@

@Baunez2 years ago "Because feet and inches is obviously the better way to measure heights" I guess you mean "since I don't know the metric system" anyone who knows both systems would agree metric is the better option 😉👍 ... 58
@

@PapaGeorgio18710 months ago New one for yous my phones not new unfortunately have iPhone 8plus still lol but thought I would share
*Go to accessibility then Personal speech you can have your own voice talk back for you on your phone. Pretty cool wish I can do it lol if anyone wants to help out towrds a new phone for me would be appreciated $Georgiedelomba ...

@itsnatecraft9 months ago The most underrated thing is using screen recording just record a youtube video or Netflix movie or TV show and you will be able to watch all those recordings with sound in ur photos app works good when on plane rides without wifi or if u dont have wifi all the time ...
