1. Get a quick 3-day overview of your schedule by rotating the calendar app horizontally – to landscape mode.


2. Shake your iPhone to quickly undo an email or text message that you just typed. If you mistakenly deleted text, shake again to redo and the text will magically reappear.

3. Rotate the calculator to landscape mode for a more complex scientific calculator.


4. Add extensions to your contacts. This comes in handy when dialing work related numbers with extensions. When entering a new contact or editing a current number, press the “+*#” key in the lower left corner of the keypad. Press “pause” and a comma will be inserted. Enter the extension.

5. Hold down letters for accent marks.

6. When your phone is locked, slide the camera icon located in the lower right on your screen upward to quickly take pics.


7. Set flash alerts instead of sound or vibrate for incoming calls and notifications. Go to Settings > General > Accessibility, scroll down to “LED Flash for Alerts” and turn the slider to “on”.

I know all of these except for #1, and I only don't know #1 because I never use the Calendar app.

I already knew at least half of these

I know all of these, who doesn't? a mess

Only one I didn't know about was the Shake for Undo/Redo

-

I knew all of that...

I know all of these and few more

OKAY but some of us didn't know all of them. Let's not

A god damn mess that is iOS 5 or some **** why am I laughing so hard

WOW I was just thinking what tricks my iPhone could do! Thanks for this

Obviously the actual article's title is "tricks you probably don't know" but I made it shorter and snappier, and to rile up the gworls.

I didn't know about the calendar, the shake or the flash alerts.

I didn't know 1, 2, 4, 7 although 1 & 4 are pretty useless, while 2 & 7 are pretty cool

I only knew #5.

IDK why are you laughing so hard? It's just iPhone tricks henny.

Sorry we're not all sucked into and duped by advertising that makes us buy into upgrade culture.

i didnt know the quick camera
