Here are a few tricks to use your iPhone more efficiently:
Did you know there are special characters hidden under each of the letter buttons? Tap and hold the “e” for example, and you can see 7 different options for accents, etc.
Do you like the .com button in safari – but wish it were in mail, too? It’s there – tap and hold the period button for 2 seconds, and up pop several options including .com, .org, .edu, and .net.
If you upgrade to the new iOS 4 – you can use folders – which I love! To create a new folder, it’s simple – you just hold down an icon until they all jiggle, and then drag one icon on top of another icon you want to be in the same folder, and voila, you have a folder – you can rename it to whatever you want. Click the home button to stop the jiggling, and you have a folder for all your cooking apps, or all your audiobook apps, or whatever your heart desires. I have all my apps in folders now, and I really like it better than swiping through screens to find what I’m looking for.
iOS 4 also adds multitasking, which is great for Audiobooks. And, you can have one unified inbox, which is really nice.
Do you have any tips or shortcuts that could make it easier for everyone else?
