The latest operating software, iOS 13, brings new tricks to the iPhone.
After 12 years of the iPhone, it's no longer a novelty and neither are most of the "hacks" that you'll be able
to nd online. You probably already know that you should close your background apps for faster
performance or that you can put the device into Airplane Mode to charge it up more quickly.
hidden tricks that cannot be easily revealed. Last September, iOS 13, Apple's latest software, introduced some things that needs to be discovered.
Turn on Dark Mode
These are some few steps on how to activate your dark mode, but I know you will still want to achieve
some benets of dark mode, like reducing your eye strain at night - consider turning it on during certain
hours.

Type Faster With One Hand
Apple is nearly a decade now (a period of ten years) in enabling this feature (a distinctive important
software element). QuickPath swipe typing lets you slide your nger across the letters of whatever you're
trying to type/say, rather than tapping. It's much faster and in some cases, prone to less errors. Even if
your nger isn't directly touching all of the correct letters, the right word will be selected, similar to the
regular autocorrect and suggestions feature in iMessage.
However if u use a third party keyboard app like Swiftkey, then this isn't new for you.

Pair Two Sets of AirPods to One iPhone
Connect your AirPods to your iPhone > Tap the AirPlay icon in the Control Center or from your lock screen
or the app you're listening to > Share Audio > Hold your friend's AirPods or Beats headphones near your
device (keep the AirPods in their case, but with the lid open, put all others into pairing mode) > When your
friend's headphones appear on-screen, tap Share Audio.
Play Radio Stations Through Siri
This feature isn't exclusive to iOS 13. A restricted amount/number of iOS 12 users can enable it but this is
the rst time that all iPhone users can ask Siri to play a given radio station, from your local pop FM
channel to NPR
Charge Wisely, Not Hardly
A battery’s lifespan is related to its chemical age, which is more than just the length of time since the
battery was assembled," Apple writes on its website."As lithium-ion batteries chemically age, the amount
of charge they can hold becomes smaller or weaker, resulting in reduced battery life and reduced peak
performance."
Optimized Battery Charging was introduced last fall with the operating system of iOS 13. It supposedly
reduces wear-and-tear on the battery by delaying charging past 80 percent. On device machine rules,
learn your charging habits so that the feature only kicks on when your iPhone thinks it'll be plugged in for
an extended period of time, like overnight.
This setting is turned on by default when you update to iOS 13.
