- iPhone SE 3 settings you need to turn on now.
Let's start with 5G.
Open up settings, tap on cellular,
and then tap cellular data options.
First switch here, data roaming.
Let's turn that switch on.
- Depending on your carrier.
This really is one to be careful of,
but turn it on if you have like Verizon or AT&T in the US
where you don't have any more roaming charges.
There are carriers that still take roaming into account.
Most don't, in the US anyway.
Check with your carrier.
But, if your carrier does allow data roaming,
then definitely turn this on because it's gonna
widen the pool of available cell towers to your phone,
and increase your battery life, bar none.
- Next, tap on voice and data right below that switch.
5G auto, 5G on, LTE,
by default it's set to 5G auto.
But if you don't have good 5G in your area,
we'd recommend switching to LTE.
- Even if you have good 5G at home.
If you find yourself listening to Apple Music or Spotify
in the car, driving places,
and then all of a sudden, it stops.
Come back here, take this note mentally down
that I'm telling you right now and just change it to LTE.
Just because it says 5G doesn't mean it's faster than LTE.
- [David Lynch] Next up, we're going to battery.
Tap back, upper left hand corner of the screen.
Tap back to cellular, and tap back to
the main page of settings.
Scroll down, and tap on battery.
So right here at the top, battery percentage,
turn that switch on.
- One of the only things that makes this phone better
than the other phones may be, according to some people,
is that there's a battery percentage
on the screen all the time.
Can you do that with an iPhone 13 Pro Max?
- No, you've got it over on control center.
One extra swipe.
- No, sir.
- [David Lynch] Bit more important for your iPhone.
Tap on battery health and turn on
optimized battery charging.
- It's smart about the way it charges.
- Yeah.
- It charges slower so that it
maintains maximum capacity for longer.
- Yep, turn that switch on.
We put out a lot of battery tips, videos,
including one specifically for the iPhone SE 3.

Next, let's talk about wifi calling.
We're gonna tap back to the main page of settings.
We're gonna scroll down and tap on phone,
and then tap on wifi calling.
Turn that switch on.
- Wifi calling is an awesome feature.
People used to have to get repeaters
from their cellular carriers,
if they didn't have good service at home.
Now your iPhone can use your wifi connection
at home or abroad to make phone calls,
which is amazing, especially if you're overseas.
- Yeah, we'll tap enable to turn that on.
If this feature wasn't there on your iPhone,
it's because it's not included with your cell phone plan.
Contact your carrier about that,
or you might just need to switch plans, unfortunately.
Next up, we are going to the privacy section of settings.
Tap back, upper left hand corner of the screen.
Scroll up, one below battery is privacy.
Tap on that.
Tap location services, and then scroll down.
Tap on system services, scroll down again.
Status bar icon, had it buried here at the very bottom
of the screen, but it is one that we recommend turning on.
When status bar icon is on,
you will see a location icon in the status bar
when your iPhone is accessing your location.
Let's try to demo that real quick.
Let's turn some of these switches on, here we go.
There it is, right next to the battery percentage.
- I keep a look out for that.
And if it's on all the of time,
it could be indicative of some sort
of a problem with your phone and maybe a battery issue.
- You may have noticed that
a lot of these switches were turned off.
Check out our iPhone SE 3 Settings to Turn Off Now video
card above and in the section below the subscribe button
to learn why we've turned off those switches.
Next up, we're going on a safari,
to the safari section of the settings app.
So we're gonna tap back, upper left hand corner
of the screen, until you get back
to the main page of settings, scroll down.
- [David Payette] These are original jokes by the way.
- Yes, tap on safari.
Then scroll down to close tabs, tap on that.
Right now it's set to manually.
If you are a tab hoarder,
and you leave tabs open all the time
and you never close 'em, this might be useful for you.
Because when you have a ton of tabs,
like hundreds of tabs, like I've had before,
that can really slow down your iPhone.
So I usually choose after one month.
If I'm not going back to a webpage after a month.
I'm just, I'm never gonna get to it.
Next up, tap back, upper left hand corner of the screen,
scroll down here.
Prevent cross-site tracking, make sure that switch is on.
- If this switch is off, it means that websites
can track you as you go for from one website
to the next, and to the next.
And the truth is, that even with the switch on,
some of them can still do it.
But this is at least gonna cut down on some
of their ability to see exactly what you're doing online.
- Next, let's tap back to the main page of settings.
Scroll down, and tap on camera.
Preserve settings, tap on that.
We're gonna talk about a few different things here.
First is camera mode, turn that switch on.
It's kind of frustrating when you're taking a bunch
of videos, and then every time you close the camera app
and go back in, it resets the photo.
If you leave camera mode, preserve settings on,
it'll stay on whatever that last camera setting was.
- Mhm, that's just kind of a cool thing.
- Convenience tip, also live photo
- [David Payette] Leave it on.
- Leave it on, videos like this take a lot of work,
a lot of time, going through all the settings.
