But how can you operate your iPhone more easily? We explain it to you.

#1 Scroll up with one tap

If you’ve been scrolling on your iPhone for a while, navigating all the way back to the top can be a hassle. That doesn’t have to be the case though, as you can easily end up back at the very top.

All you have to do is tap the Dynamic Island or one of the sides next to the notch. Then your iPhone will automatically scroll back to the top of the page. From there you can easily continue navigating.

#2 Count faster

A typing error is easily made, including in the calculator on your iPhone. Did you know that in that case you don’t have to start all over again with your calculation? You can just leave the C button for what it is.

Instead, all you have to do is swipe left or right on your iPhone near the number. Do this as many times as you want to remove the error. Then enter the correct numbers to complete the calculation.

#3 Space as trackpad

It can sometimes be a bit tricky to fix a typo on your iPhone. However, you can easily fix this by using your keyboard’s space bar as a trackpad. To correct a typo, hold down the spacebar. Then move the cursor to the desired spot and then release. C’est ca!

#4 Numbers or letters

To switch between letters and numbers on your iPhone keyboard, you need to press the ABC or 123 key on your screen. To go back again, you have to do the same. That is a small effort, but it can also be done a lot faster.

Instead of tapping this button on your iPhone twice, you can also choose to press and hold the button once. Choose the numbers you need, release the button and you will immediately see letters in front of you again. It also works the other way around.

#5 Assistive Touch

As icing on the cake, your iPhone has a hidden function that allows you to conjure up an extra button on your smartphone. Here you can perform various actions, such as controlling nearby devices or using the magnifying glass.

Go to the Institutions and navigate to Accessible. Scroll down and tap Activation button. Choose which function you want to set here. If you then press the lock button three times in succession, this function will be enabled and disabled.
