This isn't in anyway a 'cool' tip or something that will change the way you view the iPhone all together, but it is a little trick that has saved me from a lot of frustration since learning about it. For the longest time whenever I made the mistake while I used the calculator, I would just hit the 'C' button and zero the calculator, and start over. But, if you are looking just to remove the last number of what is appearing, all you have to do is to swipe left or to swipe right in the black area surrounding the number. It doesn't seem like a lot, but for someone who is constantly using a calculator for the work that I do, it is definitely something that I greatly enjoyed figuring out as it has saved me a lot of time and effort since learning about it.

Have you ever been using your phone with one hand and can't reach the top of your screen? Then you have to drop what you're doing with your other hand and use both hands to type or do whatever you were doing before? I have a little tip that will simply your life. It is very simple and you would be so angry at yourself that you didn't figure this out by yourself! All you need for this tip is:
- any iOS device (preferably an iPhone7 or any newer addition)
- your hand
So what you're going to do is not press, but gently tap on your home button twice. If many pages pop up on your screen it means you pressed too hard. Once you've tapped gently, your screen will come all the way down and you can touch the top of your screen without having to move your hand all the way there. This is perfect if you're a busy woman multitasking and can only use one hand at that moment!

Rather than using the typical 4-digit or 6-digit passcode, you can make sure your IPhone is even more secure by using an alphanumeric passcode. An alphanumeric code allows the usage of both letters and numbers in the formation of a custom passcode. Thus, the use of an alphanumeric code allows for a nearly unlimited number of possible combinations. This minor setting adjustment is simple to accomplish. First open the 'Settings' app on your IOS device. From there, tap the 'Touch ID and Passcode' option, followed by 'Change Passcode'. Once given the opportunity to submit a new passcode, tap 'Passcode Options' located above the keypad. In doing so, you will be offered further options for your passcode customization. From these options, select the 'Custom Alphanumeric Code' option, and enter your own custom code.
