We get it — you’re busy and sometimes you may want to ignore a call. But instead of leaving your friends or family members hanging, the least you can do is send a text message. Sometimes you don’t have time for that. Thankfully, your iPhone has three pre-written options (“Sorry, I can’t talk right now,” “I’m on my way,” and “Can I call you later?”), and of course the button that lets you type your own text. You may not have noticed you can customize and overwrite these three options. Simply follow these steps:

It seems like any time you need to measure any object, you can never find the tape measure to do it. Thankfully, you can use built-in measuring tool on your iPhone to measure rooms and objects.

Trick#17: One handed Keyboard
iPhone's display is getting bigger, which makes typing challenging, particularly with one hand. Thankfully, you can enable one-handed keyboard feature on your iPhone. So you can use one hand to type and the other to do whatever else it is that you need to do. Here comes the steps!

ALERT! Ensure your phone is on silent mode, otherwise Siri will announce your answer to everyone.
Trick#20: Offload Non-Used Applications
You’ve probably gotten a “Storage Almost Full” pop-up numerous times, and you may have even deleted some apps and photos to free up some space to install iOS 13, particularly if you are running a 16 GB device. If you are one of those people, this little trick will save you a ton of stress and space over time. It automatically deletes apps that you don’t use without deleting their documents and data. Follow these steps to offload unused apps and save precious storage space:
- Open Settings app on your iPhone
- Scroll down and tap on iTunes & App Store
- Switch on Offload Unused Apps
