  1. iPhone’s Hidden Magnifier App: A Handy Tool for Reading Small Text
  2. Built-in QR Code Scanner: Avoid Third-Party Apps and Use Code Scanner
  3. Print from Your iPhone or iPad: Utilize AirPrint with Compatible Printers

On iPhones, several extremely beneficial pre-installed applications remain unnoticed.

Watching a video while traveling and having trouble hearing? There is an application that subtitles everything you view.

Want to read a book on your morning commute but you forgot your glasses? Your smartphone’s camera and display can function as a magnifying lens.

Utilize your mobile device as a magnifying glass.

Magnifier is an incredibly simple and highly functional application.

Open the App Store the next time you are without your readers or need to see something minuscule.

In the search box at the top of the screen, type Magnifier and then tap Open when it appears.

It is already loaded on your iPhone. The magnifier is easy to use. To adjust magnification, simply tap, hold, and drag the slider. In addition, there is a torch icon near the app’s bottom. In certain circumstances, having an additional source of illumination improves visibility.

Rapidly read QR codes

Downloading a third-party QR code decoder app is discouraged. In the worst-case scenario, it will charge you money or even infect your phone with malicious code. At best, it occupies space. Unless your phone is extremely ancient, QR code scanning is already integrated.

Launch the camera program on an iPhone to scan a QR code. However, here is a pro tip. Hidden on your iPhone is a Code Scanner application.

If you scan QR codes several times per week, add Code Scanner to the Control Centre on your phone. This is the inventory of icons you can access by swiping down from the screen’s top.

Open the Settings app, then navigate down and select Control Centre. If Code Scanner is not already in your Control Centre, tap the plus icon next to it.
When you swipe down from the top of your home screen, your Control Centre will display Code Scanner. Tap it to activate a QR code scanner.

(Also, if you find the Magnifier app useful, follow the steps above to add it to your Control Centre.)

Open the camera app on your Android device, position it at the QR code, and hold steady. A link will emerge. This link will take you to your destination.

Manage your printer using your smartphone or tablet

Almost anything can be printed on an iPhone or iPad. You only need an AirPrint-compatible printer. Here is the comprehensive list.

Ensure that your printer and phone are connected to the same Wi-Fi network before proceeding.

To print a document, note, photo, or other item, select the share icon on the item. Select your printer, then click Print.

Here is how to utilize the hidden App Switcher. You can view or cancel tasks while printing by opening the App Switcher.
