5 Things You May Not Use on Your iPhone that you Should

We all use our iPhones to help us be a little more productive, to get things done a little bit faster, but your iPhone can't help you do that if you don't know to actually use your iPhone efficiently.

Don't worry, we have provided five little tips to help you use your iPhone to the fullest.

#5 - Force Quit Your Apps

So...your favorite app has simply frozen your phone, what to do? Don't completely turn off your phone, just force quit that app. To do this , simply hold the "Home" button for six seconds and viola (hopefully, lol)!

#4 - Make a Phone Call from Safari

Make Phone Call with Safari


When you have finally located the phone number you have been searching for within Safari, please don't try to copy it to redial in the phone app or worse, try to remember the number and retype it in the dialer. Simply hold the phone number and let the iPhone dial it for you.

#3 - Setting Content Restrictions

Setting iPhone Content Restrictions - SimpleLeap.com


Sooo...the kiddies use your phone sometimes or you have a friend that just doesn't appreciate your iPhone as much as you do. Make sure you block some of that content, this includes not allowing them to install iPhone apps. Simply go to "Settings" --> "General" -->  "Restrictions" and select on or off to allow particular functions.

#2 -Find out where those links go

iPhone Links - SimpleLeap.com


Save yourself the disappointment of going to another website you didn't expect, by viewing the exact link in full that you are going to visit. Simply hold down the link and the iPhone will present full details about the link before you visit. Very helpful to make sure the link in that suspicious email is what it says it is.

#1 - Select other domain endings

If the website doesn't end in ".com" don't type out the website ending, simply hold down the ".com" button and other website endings will appear. So quick, so easy!

That's it for now, even though obviously there are so many other helpful tips that some just don't use on the iPhone.
