The iPhone has been with us for a decade and still, little by little, it hides from us some features that could ultimately make our experience with the iPhone so much easier. Even from us here at phone repair Conway are clueless about the little facts we are about to reveal to you which we only discovered just quite recently.

Since we do not want to these secrets all to ourselves here at cell phone repair Conway, let us cut to the chase and reveal some of these iPhone hidden hacks that will definitely blow your mind.
Recording a video while capturing a photo
In this documentation-obsessed era, evident in popular apps such as Snapchat, Facebook, and Instagram through the Instagram stories, being able to capture photos and record videos is utterly important for moments when you want to keep and treasure the memory forever. However, what a lot of people do not know is that the iPhone they own has a hidden but very useful feature that you will definitely thank us for revealing it to all of you.

If it so happens that you are recording a video, you may press the small circle button that will appear by the corner of your screen to capture a photo simultaneously. In this way, you would not have to screenshot a part of a video just so you can have a photo of it. One added hack is that if you hold down the photo button while you are capturing a photo, your camera will then switch into burst mode and will start to take one picture after another until you release the button and then it will stop.

Reaching further
It is quite evident the iPhone has been becoming so much larger and taller by the year and it is quite a challenge for those who have smaller hands because the top part of the phone is fairly hard to reach. Back then it was so much easier to clutch the phone with one hand, now you need an extra accessory just to make sure it does not fall from your hands. However, there is actually a hidden hack for this.

Apple has actually added a feature called Reachability, it can be achieved by tapping on the home button twice, again, tapping and not pressing it down. When you have done that, you should expect that the top of your iPhone screen will slide down so that it will be easier for your thumbs to reach it, especially for those who have small hands and yet have phones with large bodies.

Typing shortcuts
One hack that really surprised us here at cell phone repair Conway is how we you can actually type a few keywords and it can turn into a whole phrase or sentence. Using the Text Replacement option in the keyboard settings, you can easily type “wbrt” and it will automatically turn into “will be right there”. From this you can add all other shortcuts for your convenience.
