@@ProperHonestTech I will check this out as your videos are so helpful. I was sure that you had mentioned in one of your previous videos that you could make a template in Notes but I can’t remember which video or when. Was I imagining it? If not can you remind me please as to which video it was mentioned in. I want to make a packing template for my holidays.
@@trinablum7102 I can't recall which video I mentioned it in, but the template is in Reminders, not Notes. Go to Reminders, choose Add List, create your packing template, then go into the list, tap the menu button in the upper right corner, and choose Save as Template. (this is actually covered in the training portal also! :)
Just a quick almost unnecessary comment Tom, but I hope it’s as pleasant to receive as to send. You’re a great presenter, with a terrific manner and attitude. It’s lovely to listen to your thoughtful, helpful and constructive content. 👍👍👍
Among the many persons giving the videos regarding iPhone, you are one of the best, decent and really useful videos! May God bless you with the best of health, new ideas!
When the iPhone first came out, a huge thing about it was how intuitive operations were. They’ve gone so far away from that now, as evidenced by how many videos you get to make explaining features we would struggle to find or even know were there.
@@johnfox1823 I knew all but one of these tips tbh. I like to take time to explore any of the tech I own and it’s actually easy to see what is available to us, especially with iOS. The real issue is that most people don’t have the curiosity to tinker with their tech and learn all that it does - they need their hand held instead.
i made two discoveries that you might consider useful..1) in receipts folder i found a membership card for a sports club included and 2) in the handwritten folder i found all printed docs as well, cheers
I’ve been using the medication reminder for quite a while now. Although I’m pretty good at remembering, a change in my daily routine (eg holidays) does mean I sometimes forget. You can also look back and check if you have any days where you didn’t record/take the medication.
I knew some of these such as the medications, hiding my email, and recovering closed tabs in Safari. In the ones that I knew, I did learn some new details. All of these tips will be very useful. If only I could remember that they exist.
Hi Tom. Query about passwords. Any tips for remembering whether you signed up for a service/app/website with email, google, apple etc? I’m often confronted with this and have to go through a search process to find the correct one. Particularly when going from phone to mac or vice versa.
Follow up - I just successfully added my wife to key sites she needed passwords for - only issue on those I could not was 2FA that I set up. I guess no work around for that. Thnx again for all your great work. So very helpful.
I always love your videos! I’m having an issue with one tip. For deleting apps I haven’t used in a while. I did this- settings>general >iphone storage >size and change to last use date. Scroll to bottom and tap ‘show all’. Bottom again>swipe right to left > here’s the issue- it doesn’t give me those boxes with the option to delete the app as it shows in your video. It opens to a new screen where it shows me the details of the app. I can’t swipe on that either. For reference, I have an iPhone 15 Pro Max. Any thoughts?
Thanks for all the content, Tom. This seems like a good time to bring up a query. I’m a little worried that photos I am using in Notes might be using an unnecessary amount of storage which will add up over time. Is there a way to reduce the quality and file size of these images on the fly, please?
Great video, as usual - one thing you covered in a previous video was using Maps offline, but I’ve found it impossible to open them up after downloading and I have the latest iPhone and a cursory search shows I’m not the only one. Are you able to help please? - Thanks - Peter
you should make a video that describes, and how to use and understand the complexities of iphone backup. I don't know anybody who has successfully backed up their iphone with just the stuff they want backed up.
Very useful, thanks Tom. Some good reminders, but also many features that I wasn’t aware of, or hadn’t the time to follow up on. Password sharing mightn’t apply to me… but I know someone who it would help. Hidden email I was aware of- but had forgotten that unsubscribe aspect. Great. Hope you get over that horrible sounding bug 💊 💊 🥃!!
I try out the tip on chapter 3, but the highlighted text don’t show up in the pdf which was sent/shared. Tried 3 times but still same. V useful feature if I can get it to work😢
One problem with hide my email, is that I cannot use the generated email address as the From address when I want to send an email to that website or service where I registered the generated email address. Do you have a solution for this?
In your promotion for iPhone essentials plus, you put a QR code on the screen. Is there any way for me to actually scan this? I can understand using the camera to scan a printed QR code, but how do you scan a QR code that is only on the screen?
From my understanding, the QR code is there for the audience watching the video from a PC, tablet, TV, etc. If you want to scan it from the same device that you are watching the video, simply do a screenshot and then scan the screenshot.
@ProperHonestTech thanks! I realized (after the fact) that I ought to have asked just about the current situation. Please interpret my question as an indicator of how much I value your work and the fact that I “do* want the information you share asap 😊
Sadly, the medications app lacks an option for inventory - this is a deal breaker for me. There are other third-party apps that provide this very basic functionality. A real miss by Apple, in my opinion.
I wondered what it was and why I had it. I wanted to get rid of it but had no idea how. Makes sense now as it appeared on my new phone. I had to purchase iCloud storage it as I needed to transfer to a new phone and had none left , it would’ve taken an age otherwise. I intend to cancel it so that answers the question- hide my email will disappear
Whilst i like the layout of the medications section in apple health it really does lack one major feature, the ability to manage the quantity of each medication so that you can track how many you have remaining
@ sounds familiar. My boy is 6 now and the last two years were hell. He brought all back from Kindergarten and we caught it all too. This is the first winter with only a cold so far :-)

Your videos are so satisfying!! I watch them in the day for the tips and in the night before sleep. I don’t even own an iPhone.😂❤

Great video! I added Magnifier and Zoom to my triple click side button list via Accessibility > Accessibility Shortcut.
So glad to have you back. You’ve been missed and I feared you weren’t doing TH-cam any more, which would have been a tough loss.

Very useful information as always!
Password groups is a game changer for this sharing passwords for streaming and music services etc
Very clear and simple, I like your style of presentation.
Thanks 🙏🏽

Brilliant! I just purchased a new iPhone 16 so this was timely. Thank you.
Congrats! Excellent video!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Awesome tips and tricks
Was waiting for it 🤗
Welcome back and congratulations on the new app
Wonderful ❤❤thanks for sharing 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Thank you Brilliantly presented, as always
Your tips are so simple and clear. Thank you! ❤️
Thank you! Especially for the last one… Hide My Email Tip… I’ll start implementing it right now.🎉
THANKS PROPER 🤗😎💚💚💚
I appreciate the work you put into providing tips. I am a much better user 😊
So appreciate your content. So clear and concise. Many thanks 🐞
Fantastic content! As always

Excellent and some of these have proved to be very useful knowledge
The PDF one is great. I knew I could do that one to an extent but the zoom in and then highlight parts, never knew that. I'll use that way more now
Great video, as usual - one thing you covered in a previous video was using Maps offline, but I’ve found it impossible to open them up after downloading and I have the latest iPhone and a cursory search shows I’m not the only one. Are you able to help please? - Thanks - Peter
Great job, thanks for the tips.
Great video, when you capture in magnifier, where do the captures go?
you should make a video that describes, and how to use and understand the complexities of iphone backup. I don't know anybody who has successfully backed up their iphone with just the stuff they want backed up.
I have never used”Control Center”. What is it & how does on ‘get’ to control center?
brilliant tips as always. Thank you so much!
So useful, as always. Many thanks.
Tom do you have any help or past videos on how to permanently close and delete a gmail email account
For adding the medicines is good, what about privacy from known apps that Seri can learn from…. Can this be turned off in privacy and settings ?
Tom i tried loading Deepseek onto my phone app came down ok but wouldn’t allow to load or register ?
Big thanks!
Ha I guess I’m old school cos I’m so use to shaking my phone to undo things like reopening closed tabs or undo deleted text lol 🤓
Beat me to it! Shake to undo is so useful. Turn it on in Accessibility > Touch.
Thank you
U mite want to start with this is an iphone only group activity
Thnx so much - wicked cool tips.
Shouldn’t password groups work with any MacOS, iPadOS, or iOS device, not just iPhones?
Ya
Very useful, thanks Tom. Some good reminders, but also many features that I wasn’t aware of, or hadn’t the time to follow up on. Password sharing mightn’t apply to me… but I know someone who it would help. Hidden email I was aware of- but had forgotten that unsubscribe aspect. Great.

6:51 these tips are genius 😮🤯
Safari tip is a very handy one
I hadn’t spotted the Receipts before - excellent!
9:26 Photos app is great in my opinion but anyway. Photos of receipts takes up about 2 to 3x memory compared to scanning pdf directly to Files app.
Very good video.
Password groups was something I didn’t know about! My only question is how does that work with 2FA?
I try out the tip on chapter 3, but the highlighted text don’t show up in the pdf which was sent/shared. Tried 3 times but still same. V useful feature if I can get it to work😢
Finally a video where most of the tips I havent heard or found yet. 👍🏻
One problem with hide my email, is that I cannot use the generated email address as the From address when I want to send an email to that website or service where I registered the generated email address. Do you have a solution for this?
Will your tutorials include accessibility voiceover access with iOS 18? 14:48
7 out of 10

@ thank you. I thought there was some secret way to read the QR code on screen. Your solution is a good alternative.
I have my action button set to the magnifier.
Yes, I’m old
You’re old and not old at the same time. Most old people won’t think to even use their action button
I had to look up what was the action button….
Ahhh, sound on or off 👍🏻👍🏻
I’m old too
@ I think the default action is the silent switch if you don’t change it, otherwise you can change it to something else
I'm just curious why the emails about these videos is sent a day after the video is published to TH-cam?
They usually aren’t. On this one occasion, there was a small delay finishing the accompanying PDF.

Wait, ppl use safari?! 😮
I tried using other browsers but it just feels weird and it also drains battery

You sound sore. Get well soon
The whole house got wiped out by this winter flu doing the rounds! Definitely on the mend now.
