The iPhone^® is the original smartphone that spurred revolutions in device capabilities and touch-screen technology. Although it is wildly popular, its secrets have not yet been fully revealed. If you’d enjoy even more interactivity with your digital device, here are some intriguing, but little-known capabilities, of the Apple^® iPhone.

4 Little-Known iPhone Features

1. Find Parked Car Location

After pairing your device to Apple CarPlay^® or Bluetooth^® in your car, the Maps feature automatically drops a pin in the last place your car was parked. To permit this, first turn on “Location Services” and enable “Significant Locations.” Pair the device to your car, and when returning to the vehicle, check “Settings,” “Maps,” and “Show Parked Location” for directions.

2. Take Action Photos

The iPhone has always been a popular device for selfies, but now you can take exceptional action shots with “Burst Mode.” Simply open the camera app as usual and press and hold the shutter or volume button. This takes a burst of photos—as many as 10 per second—which is ideal for catching sports action, flying birds, and more.

3. Enlarge Text Using Magnifier

The magnifying glass app makes it easier for people with reduced vision capability to read small print. Navigate to “Settings,” “General,” “Accessibility,” and launch “Magnifier.” Then, triple-press the “Home” button to start the app. You can then use your phone's camera to get a closer look at minuscule items around you.

4. Change the Voice of Siri^®

By default, the Apple digital assistant has a pleasant, even-tempered female voice. However, if you prefer interacting with a male, you can change the voice of Siri with a few keystrokes. Simply navigate to “Settings,” “General,” “Siri,” “Voice Gender,” and choose "Male."
