I’m a hairstylist. I use the “shave and a haircut” tapping pattern for the vibration tone for all of my clients. If I’m busy and not responding to other people, I’ll know it’s money trying to enter my pocket, and take a look.

[@jamesfield1674]

That's so cool

[@mikeypiontek2855]

Actually, if you wanna keep one tab open and close all the others, you don’t need to use that workaround just go to the tab view and press and hold on the tab and press close all other tabs. Then every other tab is closed except the one you held onto

[@shewhoisaudacious]

Wow. Just wow. I’ve been an iPhone girly for years and I’m realizing I don’t know much about my phone. This is gold. Thank you.

[@Kathikas1]

I use my iPhone as a SatNav and by turning on Voice Control I can tell the screen to perform several (listed) actions such as “zoom in” or “page left” etc. For more granular control I scroll down to ‘Overlay’ and choose ‘Numbers’. Calling out any particular number then activates the associated tap/switch Hands free assisted control that works for any app

[@808dms]

Great video! The one question I have after watching it is: if wanting to unsubscribe from getting emails using hide my email, wouldn’t it be better to just delete that email address instead of just toggling it off?

[@cindyhappel7376]

I have learned so much from your videos - thanks for sharing all the knowledge.

[@petermclennan6781]

Can you voice command the camera to take a picture? Hopefully without too much lag.

[@kimkelly7062]

Thank you! I always learn something new when I watch your channel.

[@LeaveNoManBehind1966_]

So true

[@supergolfdude]

I never miss any of your videos or your newsletters, Tom. My nephews and nieces, who are probably your age, (I'm 62) think I'm the cool uncle for giving them the links to your material. Keep up the great work, and congratulations on your new family addition.

[@ProperHonestTech]

[@LetsHavaChat]

Using voice command for scrolling is life changing!! So nice to be able to put my phone on its stand and go hands free to watch reels and shorts..thank you so much!!

[@MartinSchlender]

The black and white color trick with wallpapers is nice. To crop for wallpaper size there is a much quicker way since 17.1 (I think). Open the photo, zoom in as you like and tap the then appearing cropping tool in the right top corner. (For your next video 😜)

[@IamTHEONLYgus532]

5:55 I love the backtap feature. I use this when I go to church. I double-tap the back of my iPhone, which brings up the accessibility menu. I have a shortcut on it that when pressed, inverts my colors, silences my phone, silences my watch, changes my Home Screen, activates airplane mode, opens my Bible app, and opens my note- taking app.

[@Viralityoflife]

There is a couple of things here I didn’t know, thank you!

[@KhamWow316]

I use the Hide my email feature all the time. Best feature by far.

[@lufromcalab]

I've saved and downloaded this video, because my brain is full. Some fantastic tips! Gonna have to incorporate a couple and start using them.

[@Bevieevans8]

That hide my email was a revelation. Thank you 😊

[@TreySmith_27]

Your videos are so incredible and so amazing. I learn something new and useful with each viewing. Thank you for such amazing work.

[@killswitch896]

It's not exciting by any means, but with my 15 PM, I use Double tap for control center and Triple tap for notifications. I forget about swipe down for reachability but I don't forget about the back taps because sometimes when setting my phone down, it will call up the back tap command.

[@davidbeckett1565]

A side benefit of the guide to create custom wallpapers is that I haven't previously noticed the aspect ratio options when editing/cropping photos and videos. The option to choose 16:9 means it is so much quicker and easier to get rid of the black bars from videos I've recorded using the screen recorder function, so many thanks for highlighting that function.

[@57z]

The podcast word search might be a life changing feature. Will save hours of time. Wow

[@Clovergirl7934]

I have an up-to-date iPhone and the lyrics button you refer to is grayed out on my phone. I also don’t show the shared lyrics option either. What’s wrong?

[@southerncomfortuk]

Another great informative video thank you 🙏. I’ve been playing with ‘layering stickers’ on my iPhone. The only way to initiate the process seems to be by sending the base sticker in a message before layering the others. It would be good to know if there’s a way to miss out this step? Thank you.

This was very informative. I liked the blk/wht and color wallpaper trick, the Apple Music lyrics view, and the hide my email. Thank you for sharing. 👍🏼✨

[@captainslim]

You used your Uber account as a Hide My Email example, but this appeared on the list not because you used Hide My Email to create an email for Uber but because you used Sign in with Apple for your Uber account. If it had been a Hide My Email address, there would have been an option to Deactivate Email Address, rather than the Forward To toggle switch that you recommended switching off if you’re getting unwanted mail at that address.

[@tonyryan3630]

Great tips, love the haptic feedback! Re the hide my email I used this once when buying some shoes online. It may be coincidence but these became lost during shipping and I felt it may have been because I did not use my usual email….. did I use it wrongly?

[@a62dave]

11:11 No need to press the “Aspect Ratio” button after pressing the “Crop” button. Simply hit the “Crop” button a 2nd time.

Is there a way to close all open tabs on the iPhone - not just on Safari?

Safari is the unsung hero of the whole Apple ecosystem.

Have you covered Automations on your channel? I recently set up some automations that forward any text message that matches a couple of basic patterns (contains a specific web site; includes my home address) and reports them as SPAM.

[@viktorschreyer]

Hey Sir, do you have any idea why the haptic feedback just disappeared one day very much in the past when you were calling someone and you had the freedom to swing your phone while walking around and when the called one answered your call your phone vibrated to sign that you’re okay to speak(?). My English can be frustrating - and I really feel sorry about it, but I’m quite sure you understand my quetion🙏🏻🤞🏻😉

[@Yorkshiremadmick]

The copy image hasn’t worked for me in Safari

[@ChasMusic]

Liked and (already) subscribed. In Safari on the iPhone, ¿is there a quick way to get to the end of an URL in the address bar? Sometimes, I want to navigate a site by adjusting the path part of the URL but the domain name is so long it goes off the end of the location bar. If I try futzing with the selection tool to drag it to the end of the URL, I wind up accidentally triggering something else and wind up on a completely different screen.

[@All-the-gear-no-idea-uk]

The back button touch how can I set that to when I tap it? I can shut off face ID so people would have to use my password.

[@ritagraham6703]

I really like the ‘Hide my email’ function. Is it possible to change my email to ‘Hide my email’ on existing accounts?

[@ProperHonestTech]

Let's say you want to do this on Amazon. First, create a hide my email address and copy it. Go to Amazon, log in with your regular email, and follow their steps to change the email address associated with your account. Replace with the Hide My you just created. Repeat this process for every site you want to. It's going to take a while, but worth it if you value that feature.

Thanks

[@andrejstemmle606]

I was amazed at what I experienced today with my 15 Pro Max together with the Airpods Pro 2. When I received a Swiss-German message via Whatsapp, Siri (which is actually absolutely useless) read out this message, albeit with a strong accent, without any mistakes. And what's more, absolutely understandable. I mean, there isn't even an official dictionary for Swiss German. WOW Greetings from Switzerland 🇨🇭

[@darylcheshire1618]

I was sitting opposite a butcher’s with a string of Greek characters on the front. I took a photo and looked at it, I found a Translate option and pressed it, the words of gibberish was translated to “Greek Butcher”, it was displayed in the same font and colour as the original sign. I lol-ed.

Great tips. Love the haptic pattern recording. I thought lyrics have been around for ages.

[@seanyoungstudios]

The lyrics thing may not be a licensing issue necessarily - I’ve released music & there is a manual process for adding lyrics & adding the timing for lyrics to the song. Some artists (or their team/management) may or may not do this for all of their music.

[@ProperHonestTech]

Good point. It's interesting that for some songs, the lyrics exist, but you can't share them...

[@seanyoungstudios]

@@ProperHonestTech I wonder if that’s a more recently added manual opt-in… or maybe they’re just rolling it out in phases 😄
