Tips

Here are some iOS15 tips this week,

Custom Text Size Per App

Make sure to add text size to the Control center. Settings > Control Center and add Text size.

To set the text size in each app individually or all apps, open an app like Notes and goto the Control Center open Text Size and you can set the size to the individual app.

Copy Links from a Tab Group

in Safari and paste in Notes and other documents. Open the Tabs groups tap Edit on top left. Tap the ellipse next to the group you want to send and select copy. You can then paste it in an email, document, or wherever you want to send this to. I find notes is a good place to create that list of linked tabs.

Text Selection Magnifier

This feature was removed in iOS14 and now its back. Tap anywhere that text appears in emails, messages, notes, to move your cursor. The magnifier pops up with the cursor to see the text and assists you in placing the cursor in position.

Find Your Turned Off iPhone

In the Settings app, tap your ‌Apple ID‌ banner at the top, then select Find My. Make sure the switches next to Find My iPhone and Find My network are turned on. That way, you'll be able to find your ‌iPhone‌ in the Find My app under the Devices tab, even if your ‌iPhone‌ has run out of battery or is turned off.
