Got a new iPhone 7 (or probably the mighty iPhone 7 Plus)? Isn’t it the sexiest thing in hand for a techie at heart? And don’t you feel like knowing it inside out? Time for it now…
If you feel you have explored everything about your spangle new iPhone 7, or the super-sized iPhone 7 Plus, you might want to check out the following tips and tricks. This quick and easy guide will show you some of the best hidden features that Apple tucked away, including using the flash as a notifications light, customising the home button and Touch ID use, some WiFi hacks and more.
1. HOW TO QUICKLY ERASE A MESSAGE
If you've started to type a text message but then you change your mind and decide to say something different, don't bother mashing the backspace key. Instead, just give your iPhone 7 or iPhone 7 Plus a swift shake and you'll be asked if you want to delete the entire thing. Easy.
2. HOW TO CHANGE THE FEEDBACK LEVEL OF THE NEW HOME BUTTON
The iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus feature a new home button, which isn’t actually a button at all. When you ‘push’ it, that clicking sensation you get is actually just vibration feedback.If you want a softer or stronger vibration, you can actually set this up in the iPhone 7’s settings. Head to General, and then Home Button. In here you can choose between three levels of feedback, with the option to test each level before selecting your favourite.
3. HOW TO QUICKLY CHECK FOR ANY WAITING NOTIFICATIONS
Simply pulling your phone out of your pocket, or lifting it from its resting place, will now briefly activate the iPhone 7 or iPhone 7 Plus’ display. This allows you to quickly check for any waiting notifications and messages, without having to tap the home button. Granted that’s not exactly a massive time saver, but it’s something at least.
