hi everyone Aaron here for zollotech and iOS 16 has been out for a few months and they've released
a bunch of different versions since the initial release with iOS 16.1 16.1.1 16.2 and more in the
future all the way up to iOS 17. I wanted to share some iOS 16 tips and tricks you should know if we
go into photos we'll tap on any photo here press and hold it I'm sure you're already familiar with
that you can crop the background out instantly you can go over maybe into notes just let go
and it drops over there however if you want to do this multiple times it can take a little bit
of time and be time consuming but Apple actually has a way to do this quickly so if we select all
of the different images within this folder here of favorites and then we go to share under share if
we scroll down and save to files and then create maybe a folder I have one here cropped images and
then we'll just save it to these images give it just a moment to save we'll go over into that file
and you can see all of the different images here if we tap on the three dots in the upper right
you can see here that if we select all of them we'll just select all of them here and then go
to the menu in the bottom right now we have the option to automatically remove the background
from all of them tap on remove background give it just a moment to process and it should remove
the background from all of them creating new images with the background removed on all of
them now of course it's going to be as accurate as possible but you'll see here with the Brooklyn
Bridge it did keep some of the sky there if we go to the next one you'll see there's the Mac
Pro the next one now it's one of my old cars and the background is sort of cropped out accurately
again another car I had in the past and it does a pretty good job sometimes it's not a hundred
percent accurate but on the iPhone it did a great job it completely removed the background so that's
a quick way if you want to quickly edit all of your different photos and remove the background
on all of them now something else that's new in photos is if we go into photos go to your albums
and scroll to the bottom you'll see here that we have duplicates now duplicates only shows up
if you have duplicates if you don't it won't even be there and so if we go into that we can quickly
merge different duplicates just tap on merge merge the two items that are unique it merges them all
together so that's a really nice way to go through different things make sure they're the same and
then merge them or delete them or say that it's not the same also if we go back into albums you'll
see here that we have hidden and recently deleted that are locked so those are locked by default now
and you'll need your face ID or password to get into those if we go into messages within messages
if we delete a conversation and we really didn't mean to do that we want to get that back we have
up to 40 days to do that now now you can do that by going into your filters and seeing different
options however if you're not seeing this you need to enable a setting so if we go into settings and
within settings if we scroll down to where it says messages within messages scroll to the
bottom you'll see filter unknown senders make sure this is turned on or you won't see those options
now once this is enabled go back into messages and if we tap on filters in the upper left you'll see
all messages known senders unknown senders unread messages and recently deleted go into recently
deleted and you can recover those one big feature that many people really like with iOS 16 isn't
turned on by default if we go into settings and then we go to sound and haptics scroll down you'll
see that we actually have keyboard feedback this is something that many people have had as far as
sound for a while but now we have haptic feedback now most people know about this but there's still
many people I find that still didn't know this was there once this is enabled when you go into an app
when whether that be notes or anything else when you type and say Hi how are you today you actually
can feel every single tap of the keyboard and it's letting you know that you're actually
pressing something so it's haptic feedback and it's something I highly recommend you try out
of course you can turn it off if you don't like it it will use a little bit of your battery but to me
the nice feature is actually worth using a little bit of battery to move the little haptic feedback
motor with the taptic engine now if we go back into photos you'll see that we have those same
photos in my favorites if I go into one and then select edit we'll give it a second to load we can
edit this photo and I'm sure you're familiar with that but maybe let's make it super Overexposed
we'll give it a bunch of Brilliance here so now you can see that it's very bright if we hit
done give it a second to load again tap the three dots in the upper right and now if we tap on copy
edits we can copy these edits and paste them on other photos so if we select all of the different
photos in this fav favorite album beside the one I just edited then again go to the three dots in
the bottom right now we can actually paste those edits and you'll see everything brightens just
like it did before now you can go back into these and revert this back to how it was before by going
into edit and then tap on revert and then it will go back but you can copy and paste edits across
the OS into hundreds of photos if you wanted to so if you had a preset you sort of liked on one photo
you can easily copy and paste those to others one thing I also find really helpful that's not
only in photos but throughout the OS has to do with it understanding different information on
a screen and allowing you to easily convert that so here's a screenshot of the weather today in the
forecast and you'll see tomorrow it's 60 degrees Fahrenheit however many people that watch these
videos are not from the United States and they use celsius so if I want to convert 60 degrees
Fahrenheit to Celsius tap on convert Fahrenheit and you'll see that's 15.56 degrees Celsius
this or 288.71 degrees Kelvin I use this all the time to convert different things and also
translate text as well so if we go into Safari within Safari you'll see this is the French
version of a website and if we press and hold here and select this text and then slide over
you'll see we can translate we'll translate it into English and you'll see it here can't find
the Tesla you're looking for you can hit play and it will actually play that out we'll try it again
can't find the Tesla you're looking for and again it plays that out in the voice you've chosen for
Siri and so that's something that's really helpful across the whole OS whether that be translating or
recognizing different things that can be converted whether that's currency or degrees and everything
else it will actually recognize a lot of those things with iOS 16 we gained an all-new lock
screen fully configurable with widgets and more and if we press and hold and go over and add a
new wallpaper and at the top we have photo Shuffle and you can change your wallpaper throughout the
day or every time you lock your phone so if we tap on this you can also find it if you scroll down
within this option you'll see that we can Shuffle these photos and based off of people nature or
cities that I have in my photo library we can also change the frequency to change hourly daily unlock
or on tab so if we change it to unlock tap on use featured photo now we can set our widgets
we'll just hit add for now give it a moment to save and we'll wait for it to save there we go
we'll just tap set wallpaper pair and now it's set now every time I lock the phone unlock it it
will change again lock the phone unlock it and it changes the background based on whatever you
set it can change every hour every tap or every lock and I think that's a great addition also
on the lock screen if we wake up the phone pull down from the middle we actually have Spotlight
search you can unlock to see your recent results so again let's try that out it'll unlock and then
we can see our result when we pull down you'll see things that I recently searched for that can also
be disabled if you'd like within your settings but it's an easy way to get to things that I don't
think people realize is there unless they activate it by mistake so we could search for apple and it
will search directly on the lock screen making it a little faster to get to whatever we want if
we want to go to the Apple Store the phone needs to be unlocked and then it will load directly to
the Apple Store now specifically on the iPhone 14 pro and 14 pro Max there's some interactions with
the dynamic Island I don't think most people are aware of so if we open something up such
as music we'll hit play swipe up it goes into the dynamic Island if we swipe our finger to the right
on the dynamic Island it goes away swipe back to the left and whatever was playing comes back
so if we don't want to see something in the top it won't show if we just swipe it away however
this works for multiple apps as well so if we go into the clock we'll just start a timer here that
also goes into the dynamic Island if we swipe to the right it switches to the second app swipe to
the right again it goes away swipe left it comes back swipe left again and it goes away again swipe
again and it shows both different apps in the dynamic Island so you'll see that interaction
changes goes back and forth depending on what you want to see of course the tabs just go back
into the apps like they always do but that's something I don't think most people are aware
of now if we go into settings and then we go down to accessibility under accessibility if we go to
touch scroll down and you'll see a new option for prevent lock to end call this is something that
I think should have been there for a long time if we enable this you'll see it says prevent the side
button from ending the current call if you're on a phone call and found you've accidentally
disconnected it over and over just by pressing the power sleep wake button this will fix that
problem and finally stop you from hanging up on the person you were talking to that's something
that I would like to see in the main menu but it's found in accessibility and so hopefully those are
some things that you didn't know with iOS 16 that might help you use iOS 16 a little bit better on
your latest iPhone or whatever device you're using it on most of these tips apply across iPad as well
and let me know if there's any that you didn't know or maybe some that you think other people
should know that they don't know I'd love to hear from you in the comments below of course if you'd
like to get your hands on this wallpaper I'll link it in the description like I normally do
and if you haven't subscribed already please subscribe and if you enjoyed the video please
