the left lower corner and choose the close all x tabs i closed 242 last time if you accidentally closed all the tabs and need to go back to some of the recent ones hold the plus button in the middle it will open the list of recently closed tabs so all you gotta do is scroll down to find the one you didn't want to close whenever you need to choose more than one icon tap and hold one icon and with another finger add all the other icons that you need now this won't work if you have an iphone 6 or older the newest iphones have a super convenient feature that helps you go from one application to another look at that line on the bottom of the screen slide left or right and find the app that you need no more double clicking and notification center your iphone timer is much more useful than it seems if you like falling asleep to your favorite music or to a youtube video as i do go to clock tap the timer and select the win the time end section scroll down until you see the stop playing button this feature shuts down all the media apps such as music windows that play sounds or videos and even the youtube app pretty handy if you've ever woken up at 3am in the middle of some random video that autoplayed we're all used to messengers but live messages are fun press the send button to add different wow effects to your message the bubble section has four features invisible ink makes it impossible to read the message unless you wipe it with a finger slide the finger from right to left back and forth to clear them with the gentle effect the letters seemed really tiny at the start but they grow larger the loud effect is the opposite it makes the messages pop at the start so they appear way larger but the size goes back to normal in a few seconds the slam effect speaks for itself the message literally slams the screen the screen effects button is fun too for example it has echo so your friend's screen will be overwhelmed with echoing texts slide right for more such as spotlight balloons confetti love lasers fireworks shooting star and even celebration there are many different effects so there's definitely one for the touching text you're about to send hold the space button in the notes this way you can easily slide across the keyboard to get to any part of the text if you like typing with one hand only it's high time you set the right keyboard while topping hold the globe button you probably never noticed these three keyboards before but in fact the one on the left is used when you type holding your phone in the left hand only the one in the middle is if you hold it with both hands and the one on the right is if you type holding the phone in your right hand if you like writing long romantic letters in your notes but don't want anyone to read them except the person you know set a pass to your notes there are two ways to do that depending on what iphone model you have for iphone 6 slide from right to left and you'll see three icons lock folder and bin use the bin if the romantic letter is terrible and the lock to protect it from peaking eyes set the pass but make sure you actually remember it since you can't delete it if this didn't work just tap and hold the note itself and you'll see the password bar in the drop menu set the pass and from now on nobody will know about the romantic letters to jane that you're writing at night the newest models of iphone support the coolest feature ever now you can make a screenshot of the whole browser page in one file to do this press the volume up button at the same time as the power button if you need to find a unique word combination while reading an online article go to the search bar and type the word you're interested in you'll see three sections google search don't need it

find the keyword now don't forget to refresh your iphone operative memory every now and again it can help your device work better and faster to do so go to settings general accessibility assistive touch and turn it on press plus then minus and then the power button you'll see the power off bar press the assistive touch and hold the home button the operative memory is refreshed now if you see the enter pass notification after you did it it means you did it right give yourself a pat on the back assistive touch can also help you set new functions to simple tabs go to settings general accessibility and in the assistive touch section you can change any commands in the custom actions menu i chose the screenshot for a double tap since a home plus power button seems a bit inconvenient to make a screenshot tap the accessibility menu circle twice the iphone font has different sizes to make it bigger or smaller go to the display and brightness section in settings tap the text size and adjust it the way you like iphones may not have the most durable batteries but they beat everyone when it comes to photo quality turn on the grid in the camera settings go to general choose camera to enable the grid that can help you make better compositions by the way people with iphones don't need a separate app for qr readers since all iphones have them built in turn on the camera and point to the code you'll see the pop-up window on top of the screen tap the window and you'll go straight to the browser to whatever link the qr code had if it doesn't work enable the scan qr codes function in camera settings you can actually set any song you like for the alarm clock go to alarm and press edit in the right upper corner tap the alarm where you want to change the melody in the sound section choose pick a song and go for any song added to your library disclaimer your best love song will probably turn into your most hated song a couple of days after setting it for your alarm one of the most hated problems of all iphone users is when you run out of memory even if you delete photos there's still not enough space go to settings iphone storage and make sure that recently deleted photos are actually deleted if not delete them in the storage sections note that your messages can contain massive files too so you can restrict how long the message can be stored in the message history tap
