Enable 10 iPhone HIDDEN Features Using SECRET Settings !

hey what's going on everyone this is our reviews back with another video and today i will show you guys how to enable 10 hidden features on your iphone using secret settings that are buried into the settings app of your iphone now of course most of us only use the general settings the settings that we use often on our device and not dig through the settings app and see what actually your ios device has to offer there are a ton of very useful features that you can actually enable by switching on these settings now a very useful feature on the youtube app as well is the like button that helps out a lot and of course will help this video do much much better so make sure you leave a like on this video we're starting with the calendar settings so you go to settings go to calendar right here and you will have a very useful feature right here default alert times now what you can do here is enable alerts for your events or birthday or all day events now what you can do here is go let's say the birthdays and you can set alerts for birthdays so you can set a day before two days before or even a week before or on that same date at 9 00 am that's really really useful so you don't miss any of your birthdays or events from the calendar go to event you can see right here you can enable alerts at any time you want starting from the point when the event starts up to one week before so just like that you can have alerts for birthdays events and all day events as well next we're moving to sierra and search and we have two really great features that you can enable here so go to siri and search and the first one will be allow siri when locked so if your iphone is locked you will still be able to use siri this is especially useful if you're using the hey word and you know the rest then you can go ahead and use silvery invoke siri without having to actually unlock your device and that in some cases probably will be very very useful another thing is serial responses so if you go under serial responses you can enable always show siri captions if you enable this then everything that siri says will also be on the screen of your device so if you missed something that siri says you will always see it right here written on the screen and that is again very useful as well moving on to the notification settings and we have here a very cool setting so if you go to your notifications you will find a feature called notification grouping so you can go ahead and find that on any of the apps right here you can see you have notification grouping and it will say automatic right here but what you can do is enable by app and this will be much much better all the notifications that you get on the on the lock screen actually of your device will be grouped into different groups based on the apps from which you get the notifications from not just being grouped on times or stuff like that and get like a bunch of notifications on a group from different apps that will probably be confusing so if you go ahead and choose by app then all your notifications will be actually grouped by the app that they come from next up we're moving to the mail settings go to mail or right here and you will find a section that says privacy protection and this one is very very useful go ahead tap here and enable protect mail activity now what this does is will basically hide your ip address and will basically protect you and your data your location all that stuff from things like maybe trackers senders that send you emails based on like your activity so go ahead and enable this and that will be really really good you will be protected from all these like spammers that send you emails and stuff like that you probably have noticed that on the mail app the default mail app of ios when you block someone you still get their emails on your inbox it that's of course very very annoying but what you can do is go ahead and go to settings go to the mail settings and go right here blocked senders options go here and first of all enable that switch right there that will show basically the block sign on any email that comes from a contact that you have blocked and then you can also choose to automatically move those emails to the trash so you won't see them on your inbox that's really doesn't make that really doesn't make sense if you block someone and still get their emails on your inbox so go ahead and choose here move to trash so those will be automatically moved to the trash folder without you having to deal with them next up we're talking about a feature of the iphone and the ipad as well that probably most users don't use and that's a mouse of course it will be way more practical on your ipad but on the iphone it works as well and it has some amazing features so let me just show you guys a few things that you can do right here if i go to settings and right click there you can see i can go back from here or if i go on any like different section here right click there it shows me like the section from where i can go from here and it's really really useful but what i want to show you guys is a feature that's actually really cool if you use your mouse always make sure that you have assistive touch enabled and then from here go to custom actions and make sure you choose single tab double tap and long press so with the mouse is of course quite hard to go to the app switcher you will have to be very precise you can actually go ahead and just get out of the app but it's very hard to go actually into the app switcher but if you choose app switcher here you can just double tap right there on the assistive touch and it goes to the app switcher so that will be very very useful so anytime you use a mouse with your iphone or maybe even your ipad make sure that you always go ahead and use assisted touch as well or if you want to go home for example you can just press once right there it will go to the home screen now using the right click on the mouse is also very very useful so if you go to one of your apps and right click on it you can go ahead and go to the 3d touch menu as easy as this you can also easily move through the homepage just simply by tapping right here so left click right there on the side where the dots are on the home screen just tap there or there and you can quickly move between the home screen pages if you own another apple device like a macbook for example or maybe even ipad there is a very useful imessage feature that you need to enable so go to your settings find messages right here and then you will find here text message forwarding so let's say you're on your mac and you have your iphone maybe charging you don't have it somewhere close to you if you enable this you will get your text on your macbook you don't need to reach for your phone so you enable it right here you get the text the imessage text that you get on your phone number on your iphone directly to your mac or to your other devices you of course have connected with your icloud as simple as enabling them right here go ahead enable them and you will be able to receive text messages from your phone to your computer ipad or another iphone next up you will need to go to the settings of your bluetooth and right here we'll see your bluetooth devices now if you have your car bluetooth anywhere here make sure go ahead and tap that little i button now what you will see here is device type if you go right there you will have to choose what type of bluetooth device that is that will of course help specify the headphone audio level measurements and all that but you will also get here your contacts so if you have the car bluetooth then you will have to choose here which contacts you want to sync with your car maybe you want just your favorites or maybe you want any group of contacts that you have created on your iphone this will make it very very easy for you to easily manage all of your contacts that you see on your car and last but not least is an app store setting so if you go to the app store section right here you will see here personalized recommendations if you tap right there you will see
