guys it's like a hundred degrees in my apartment I'm not even kidding so your
girl is sweating whoa hey guys it's Adrienne and welcome back to my channel
in today's video I'm showing you guys a seven new iPhone life hacks that you
need to know and that absolutely work so as we obviously know the iPhone eight or
whatever they're going to call it is going to be coming out in the next
couple months I personally know I'm very excited to make videos about that and
maybe potentially get a new phone probably will but I really thought that
I had exhausted the iPhone 7 slash iOS 10 lifehacks until the other day when I
randomly like figured out seven more so this is what I would like to call heaven
hitting new iPhone my pack that I did not discover and that you guys are going
to find out right here comment down below what type of phone you guys have
right now and if you're contemplating getting a new phone or getting the new
iPhone when it comes out let me know I'm super curious and want to know also if
you're new here and you didn't see my last video I'm doing a huge back to
school supplies giveaway so if you're still in school and you would like to
enter my giveaway just simply click the link in the description box below and
that's how you enter the winner will be announced on August 10th via Instagram
so be sure to follow me on Instagram and turn on my post notifications so that
you guys are the personnel who won the giveaway and there are two prizes all
right without further ado let's get into the hack so the first half is called
guided access now I did not know that this existed but essentially if you give
someone your phone to borrow or maybe you have kids and you don't want them
playing around with everything else home girls just trying to look at your notes
you don't want them snooping through your photos so if you turn on guided
access and set certain restrictions that person will not be able to exit the app
they're on basically like a parental lock slash privacy control so this is
how you do it so first go to your settings and I like to type in guided
just so that I can find it way more easily so I search guided click on
guided access and then here you can turn on the toggle for guided access and what
that allows you to do is set your own passcode set your own time limit and
basically when you triple click the home button from then on out you can set what
the restrictions are going to be and then you can give someone your phone let
them use it and they'll be restricted to whatever you set it to so let's give it
a try I have my accessibility shortcut on so
that just means when you triple click it so I'm going to go to Instagram
I mean and from here I'm going to triple click and as you see it says guided
access it says circle areas on the screen you
would like to disable so say I want them to not be able to go into my DM I'm
going to circle my DM and that's it we're just going to do that and then I
click start so that's where you enter the passcode that you have made in order
to allow this to happen so back in the settings you can set your passcode
whatever you want it to be I'm just not going to do it right now but that's how
you do that and I thought it was super interesting like I don't feel like I
would need to use this very often but if I did give a stranger my phone to make a
phone call it would keep them from being able to access any other app things like
that so my next hack has to do with making it easier when you're typing a
long message to make edits because we all know it's super annoying the
backspace forever but also we know that you can kind of click on the word and
magnify it and go like this but it still gets hard and it's very finicky so when
you're trying to be like very precise and go to a certain letter of a word
this is a great tip I didn't know this but the keyboard is actually forced
touch so if you click on any key on the keyboard or just anywhere on the
keyboard and you just hold it down it goes like that and as you notice it
creates this mouse so with that Mouse you can literally put it anywhere so I
can put it right in between there and it's just so much easier than anything
else people have said to do like yes you can do this but it just sometimes
doesn't work and gets weird so this is like a full print pack - always always
always go exactly where you need to go in a paragraph the next hack is to
reduce motion on your phone if you don't like how much animation there is see how
when I click on the app and then I click away from the app it kind of does that
zoom in zoom out effect a lot of people don't like that it takes longer for the
app to actually load and some people just want it to be quick they don't like
the look of that motion I personally like the look at that motion so I keep
mine on but if you do want to get rid of it all you do is go to your settings
type in reduce in the search bar and when you see reduce motion click on that
you turn that on you will notice that there is no longer a motion it is now
this weird dissolving thing which I don't love so I'm going to turn it back
off but there you have it my next hack has to do with widgets now I'm sure you
guys are familiar with widgets basically certain apps have widget which you can
then add into your notification screen which you get to by basically swiping
left so widgets are a thing that a lot of people know about however there are
so many widgets that I didn't realize exist that are so helpful so right now
I'm just going to tell you about one but there are so many more you can find
recently I found this one called snap staff and this is just really helpful
for me I know it sounds like it's for snapchat but it's not
but snapped out the snap stats is an app that basically tells you a lot about
your phone the data usage you have the storage you have the RAM the disk space
so it's just a super easy way to figure out all this information without having
to search in your phone like yes your phone under settings somewhere showed
you how much storage you have versus how much you've used but for me it's just
nice and easy to put it all in one place so I love using this widget it's just
super nice to be able to check like oh I have a hundred and seventy three
gigabytes free yeah also like amen to the whole 256 gigabyte phone it's so so
helpful but anyway so that's just one widget again there are so many apps that
have other widgets I suggest doing some research you can utilize these to the
best of your advantage like more than you probably are now and I suggest doing
it so my next hack is actually to make a touch ID with the same finger twice it
sounds weird and unnecessary but even doing touch ID a lot of times there are
failed attempts and like maybe your finger just wasn't quite at the right
angle so in order to avoid ever having a failed attempt to unlock your phone
which actually happens to me kind of a lot you can simply do a second touch ID
for the same finger that'll just allow your phone to have like every single
angle of your finger that way it really reduces the amount of failed attempts
I'm just going to add a fingerprint and do my thumb all over again and there you
have it the next hack that is actually I think my favorite hack because I've used
it so many times and it's very very simple so you know when you go over to
your notifications by scrolling down I would always
individually like X out of not each one but each day it would be like recent ID
X I say yesterday ID X I the day before X eyes
well if you click and hold the X button it actually says clear all
education and that literally means all notification so I love this one I'm
going to go ahead and clear those babies I've been using this non-stop people are
like well you can do that and I'm sorry if you already knew that I did not know
that so I'm like yeah all right you guys and the last hack number seven is
actually one I've already talked about before but the reason I'm reiterating it
in this video is because I have straight-up saved people's like luck not
lives but I've saved people by telling them about this like in the moment I've
had two or more friends literally be like oh my god I just accidentally
deleted this really important email and I can't find it and it's like in the
trash forever and I'm like girl I got you so basically in order to undo almost
almost any action on your iPhone you literally shake your phone so I'm just
going to show you the example with the typing because it's the easiest thing I
know how to show you guys but seriously if you remember the tack try it next
time you do something accidentally on your phone that you didn't mean to do so
I'm just going to type yay then if you shake your phone it'll say undo typing
undo and it undoes now it doesn't work for every single thing however I
literally have saved a couple people who have accidentally done something wrong
for example maybe you're selecting all your photos that you want to delete and
you're going through your entire camera rolls like 3000 photos then you like
accidentally uncheck them all if you shake your phone and click on do they'll
come back that sort of thing where it just is annoying and it saved your life
so yeah those are my seven iPhone life hacks that are new that I discovered I
know I made so many of these videos but it's because I actually keep discovering
new things I will continue to do videos for you guys like this if you liked it
give it a thumbs up so that I know and I can make more hopefully when the new
phone comes out it's awesome and I will do a ton of videos reviewing that or
whatever I'm also considering doing some like Amazon tech weed product review
type situations so let me know if that's something you're interested in I love
you guys so much thank you for watching subscribe if you haven't already and I
will see you in my next video bye
