what's up you guys this Adrian and welcome back to my channel and welcome
to another iPhone life hacks video I have some brand new ice on my packs
I know it's been a little bit since I've done a video like that about phone or
about social media life hacks and you guys know I'm always on that grind of
looking for new one so here I am so I have a ton of new hacks for you guys and
bear with me because I'm really going to explain each one of them so that you
guys can do them and the last hack is actually like ten hacks in one if you
guys are interested in learning all about how to get more storage on your
iPhone for free then definitely wait until the last pack so definitely save
till the end of this video if you want to hear that anyway guys without further
ado let's get into these new iPhone hacks that are going to blow your
freakin mind okay alright this hack is to easily get your tip calculated out
for you without having to do math so all you're going to do is ask Siri for the
tip on whatever your total bill is hey Siri what's a tip on a $42 bill so here
it gives you the total amount the 15% tip the 18% tip and the 20% tune now I
know what you're thinking is kind of awkward to like yell hey Siri what's the
tip in the middle of a restaurant but I mean you can like whisper I would just
do it whatever no shame this next hack is for your calculator
now I never knew that you could actually easily just delete one number by swiping
I always thought if I mess up even one number on a big long equation I would
have to start all over so whenever I'm like adding up a ton of numbers I would
always start all over but it turns out you can actually just slide your finger
across to delete the last number what I mind blown as per usual with this text
the next task will really come in handy if you are building something like
furniture or hanging up a painting I always need a leveler and I always would
download these free leveler apps but it was just such a pain and they never
really worked that well well it turns out in your compass app that you
probably never use on your iPhone it comes installed it actually has a
leveler so huh how did I not know that I don't know you guys might have known
that but I found this to be very very helpful
the next hack is that you can tell Siri how to pronounce name so for example I
have a very weird name it sweeter Finch if Siri were to
try to say Weiner Finch she'd probably say wider Finch or well there Finch for
wind or Finch I literally get so many answers when I ask people how they think
my last name pronounced so you can actually tell Siri how to pronounce the
name you'd like to call an Adrian we decision that's not how you pronounce
Weiner Finch how would option two good job
Siri the next iPhone hack is to change your Apple ID email address so why would
you want to do this well I don't know maybe you got Apple products when you
were young and you had a different email address and now you want to switch it to
be your most current email address a lot of people think they can't change their
Apple ID but in fact that is incorrect now you're going to have to change your
Apple ID on a computer and then once you change it you're going to have to go
into all your other devices and make sure that you've updated your password
and your email address there so what you're going to want to do is go to the
sites Apple IV Apple com then you're going to want to sign in using your
current Apple ID email address and password at the top of your account page
you'll see your current Apple ID email address and then you want to click on
the change Apple ID link then just enter the new email address you'd like to use
for your Apple ID and click continue then you just need to verify your email
address and Apple will just send you an email and you verify it the way you
typically would for something and that's all you do then after that just make
sure that you go ahead and change your email address and password on your phone
or your iPad all you do is open settings on your phone go to iTunes and Apple
Store tap on your Apple ID and then when prompted for the password click cancel
your device will show your old Apple ID email address and give you several
options you're going to want to click sign out and then you want to click
sign-in and go ahead and enter your new email address and password and you
should be good to go now the next hack is what you guys have been waiting for
it is all these tips on how to get more storage on your iPhone I know for me
before I have the 256 gigabyte phone I literally was running out of storage
every two seconds and not only just that but your phone actually needs at least
one gigabyte of storage to even operate like even run so your phone cannot
function if I have any less than 1 gigabyte open and you will know
is that your calls will be dropped you won't have any sort of signal it'll be
impossible to use various functions of your phone I had to learn this the hard
way but I've also seen it happen to a lot of people so before you go in and
get a new phone be sure to at least check your storage make sure that you
have plenty of storage left if you don't and you can't get a new phone and have
more storage here are some tips for freeing up storage on your phone for
free tip number one is to clear your iPhone cache cache a cache I have no
idea how to pronounce that but just like your computer your iPhone stores a bunch
of data about website you go to etc etc should you clear this you're going to
want to open your settings and scroll down to Safari scroll down again and tap
clear history and website data tap clear history and data again and there you go
your cache a cache cache a cache your cache has been cleared
tip number two is to delete videos from your iPhone now this might be something
that is slightly overlooked I don't think people understand how much storage
videos take up I mean you could have one video that is 2 gigabytes and your phone
might only have 16 gigabytes total so obviously you're going to want to back
everything up I suggest backing it up on iCloud or
transferring it to your computer or an external hard drive I use an external
hard drive for almost all of my storage so make sure before you delete stuff
that you put it somewhere else but deleting those videos that you don't
need readily on your phone will free up so much storage tip number 3 is to
delete unneeded photos from your phone you guys probably don't even realize but
you could rack up thousands of photos without even knowing so be sure to check
how many photos you have and realize that each of those photos does take up a
lot of storage so again I would just back everything up and try to delete as
much as you can I know it's hard part is with those
photos but it's worth it this number 4 hello video okay excuse the boyfriend on
the bed situation going on but I'm just going to continue ok so tip number 4 is
to make sure that you delete your deleted photos and videos so that sounds
weird but basically just like your trash bin on a computer your phone actually
keeps your photos and videos that you deleted stored in a separate folder so I
believe they delete themselves after 30 days but I suggest going in there and
just eating them all right now all you do is
open your photos go to the recently deleted folder then click select and in
the bottom left-hand corner I believe is the button that says delete all or
something going off memory here but I'll show you right there make sure you do
that because those also take up a lot of storage tip number five is to make sure
that you guys delete text messages this is the one that blew my mind I think
when I was going through my storage I didn't realize how much storage text
took up like I figured oh it's not a photo it's not a video as you guys know
by clicking details on any one of your text message threads it stores all of
your videos and photos that you guys have sent to each other right there so
that is taking up a ton of space not only that but just the text message
conversations themselves really do take up a lot of gigabytes I keep wanting to
see data but I mean storage you know what I mean so what I suggest doing is
just going through all of your old text messages and just deleting the ones you
don't need on your phone you can also set your phone so that text delete after
a certain period of time so to do this you go to settings and then messages and
then if you scroll down and there is a little tab that says keep messages
forever but if you click that you can actually switch it to forever one year
or 30 days take your pick also if you just want to delete the
photos and videos from the texting conversations but you don't want to
delete the actual text themselves then you can simply go into the details of
the text conversation and just select individually the photos and videos you
want to them and then you'll be good to go
tip number six I think but I kind of lost count is to make sure that you
delete your books on iBooks now I don't know about you but who the hell has
books on their phone not me JK no but really I think I actually do have books
on here making sure that you delete the books that you don't want on your iBook
can definitely free up storage and on that same note podcast holy crap
podcasts take up a lot of memory and storage so if you guys listen to podcast
and you have them automatically downloading then you just need to
realize how much doors that's taking up okay so to switch the settings on your
phone to make sure that you don't automatically download podcast you're
going to want to open your settings click on podcast and then under default
click on download episode and select off that way it doesn't
automatically download them tip number seven is to turn off your photo stream
because if you don't need it taking up a lot of storage well taking up storage
into it if you don't need it you should turn it off so how you turn it off if
you open your settings and click on iCloud then click on photos and click
the toggle that's such a funny word click the toggle switch on my photo
stream to turn it off I hope that you enjoyed these iPhone light packs and let
