Some …a couple definitely well known tips, but the ‘double’ touch on text instead of single click n drag, that’s HUGE! As well, the notification ‘mute’ via pull down wasn’t one I was aware of as a ‘global’ notification ‘mutification’ option as well. Thanks for sharing, and those of you advanced iOS users not ‘clicking’ the Play button because, obviously there’s ‘nothing’ you couldn’t already know about your iPhone, iPod or iPad…think agin! As i have owned each of the iPhones and iPads, many generations of iPods and two of the five were brand new to me. :)

Four out of five of the tips in this video appeared in a piece I wrote for Macworld on 9th June. The tips are very obscure and I find it highly unlikely this is a coincidence. Joshua, stealing stuff is NOT cool. http://www.macworld.co.uk/feature/iphone/20-surprising-iphone-ipad-tricks-tips-3529806/
