Taking burst photos with volume button

Open Settings and navigate to ‘Camera’. Turn on the option ‘Use ‘Volume Up’ for burst’. Now when you hold the volume up button, when the Camera app is open, multiple photos will be taken as long as you hold the button. If you press the down button, a QuickTake video will be taken.
Change iPad screen resolution
It is possible to adjust the screen resolution of the iPad. To do this, you must have an iPad Air with an M1 chip, an iPad Pro from 2018 or later with at least iPadOS 16. These devices have a special chip that can process the adjustments. The function is called ‘display zoom’ and can be found in the settings.

Open the Settings app on your iPad and go to ‘Display & Brightness’. Under ‘Display Zoom’, tap ‘Display’. Depending on the type of iPad you have, you will now see different options. Choose a desired display to adjust the resolution.
Disable caller ID per call
If desired, you can always call anonymously with your iPhone. All outgoing calls are then without anonymous and the recipient cannot see who is calling. In addition, there is also a trick so that you can also disable the caller ID per call.
You then only call the people or organizations that you do not want to see your number when you call them. In the highlighted article below we explain how this trick works and how you can integrate it in a smart way in the Contacts app.
