While Apple makes it very easy to do what we want on our devices, it’s also very easy to then stick to doing what you know best.

54 Amazing Things You Can Do With Your Apple Device

You may well always work on a spreadsheet on your Mac, or focus, dare we say it, on just taking calls on your iPhone, or only ever check your Apple Watch for a notification.

But how unnecessarily prescriptive is that? We know that Apple’s devices are capable of doing so much exciting stuff and that there are plenty of apps and websites out there to help us find, research, explore, navigate and discover. So we’ve decided to celebrate the diversity that an Apple device and a good app or website has to offer!

From printing T-shirts to editing fonts, from recording screens to making memes, from appreciating art to dissecting a frog, from getting fit to working out a bill split in a restaurant… If you’re missing that extra little feature you need, check these pages out. Whether you’re using a Mac, iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch or Apple TV, you’ll find something useful and/or interesting in our collection…

SURPRISING THINGS YOU CAN DO ON YOUR MAC

For work or play… and the stuff that doesn’t fit either of those categories

Light up your party

1 The Music app (or iTunes in previous versions of macOS) offers a psychedelic light show that responds to the sounds your Mac is playing. Hit #+T to start; it’ll cycle through different modes to keep things fresh. While it’s playing, press? (with or without ↑) to show key shortcuts that you can use to change the patterns, including M to switch modes and P to shift the color palette. You can also press A to add more branches to the patterns or S to subtract. Press I to show or hide track info. In Window > Visualiser Settings, you can switch to the Classic Visualiser from the original iTunes. Again, try A and S.

To really chill out, connect your TV or projector.
