If you're missing the handy little camera shortcut that used to sit in the lock-screen, don't – it's gone, but it's been replaced with something even easier. To activate the feature, go to the iPhone's settings menu, head to General and Accessibility to find the "LED Flash for Alerts" option. If you don't like hearing the ding or feeling the buzz, you can set your iPhone 7 to blink its flashlight at you when you get a notification instead. What you probably missed though is the extra real estate you get to do it - just swipe to the left to find three extra screen-fuls of writing/doodling space. Simply turn your phone on its side whilst you're typing an iMessage and it becomes a digital notepad for you to finger-write your text instead of typing it. You might have discovered this one by accident already. It's useful for things like circling important details and adding handwritten notes to photos, and also for stupid things like drawing googly eyes on your cat. Open any image in the Photos app, tap the edit button and then the icon that looks like three dots in a circle – giving you the option to add a "markup". Thankfully, Siri can now also operate the rear camera too ("take a picture" or "take a video"), which is especially handy when you're fumbling for the right button with gloves on. Shout "take a selfie" at your iPhone 7 and two things will happen: Siri will automatically switch on the front-facing camera, and everyone around you will know you're about to pull a pouty face. With the iPhone 7, gone are the days of spending a whole evening swiping them all closed one-by-one - just hold the tab button in the bottom right-hand corner and select "close all tabs". Now that Apple lets you have an unlimited number of Safari tabs open at the same time, it's quite easy to find your iPhone clogged with hundreds of different windows. New to iOS 10 is the ability to edit your live shots just like any other photo – crop, resize, make brightness adjustments and edit the timing of the live motion. Live Photos (introduced in iOS 9) lets you capture a few frames of video around your still images, giving you amazing "moving photos" that look like something out of Harry Potter.
Hard-press the flashlight icon to bring up the options - bright, medium or low light, depending on how dazzling you want it to be. The feature still has a few kinks to iron out so you might notice the odd missing word, but it's already pretty workable.Īlready indispensible for searching under cinema seats for dropped car keys, the iPhone 7 flashlight is now fully controllable with 3D Touch. Thanks to iOS 10, your iPhone 7 will now automatically transcribe your voicemails so you don't have to bother listening to them (especially annoying if it's just the sound of someone hanging up).
Perfect for reading the small print, looking at bugs and digging out pesky splinters. Tap your home button three times to turn your phone into handy magnifying glass – with a slider to control the zoom and an optional flashlight for getting closer to things in the dark. On the other hand, you just could let us discover them (17 features and counting) for you… From helping you sleep at night, take better pictures and send more personal texts to saving you hours looking for that one photo you took last year – there're plenty of hidden features to discover on the iPhone 7.
