People are just noticing the awesome Apple app that updates your iPhone instantly

THERE IS an Apple app for iPhone that you’ve probably never used – but it’s so handy.

It’s installed by default on every iPhone, but it’s often forgotten.

We are talking about the extremely useful tips app.

If this sounds familiar, that’s because you’ve probably seen (and ignored) it a thousand times.

It has a yellow icon with an image of a lightbulb that is on.

And you can easily find it by dragging down on your screen and looking for tips.

“Check out collections of tips to help you get the most out of iPhone in the Tips app,” Apple explains.

In Tips, Apple includes the latest and greatest iPhone hacks from the new iOS update — as well as older tricks.

At the moment the latest version is iOS 16.

To check if you have it, go to Settings > General > Software update.

A lot of these features can easily be overlooked, so the Tips app is a great way to find out what’s new.

And you can take advantage of all the upgrades that come with the new iOS.

“In the Tips app, you can learn how to personalize your lock screen, add widgets, reset an email, take a screenshot, and more,” Apple explained, adding that “new tips are added frequently.”

Better still, you can also get notified of new tips in the app.

Go to Settings > Notifications, then under Notification style, tap Tips.

Now enable Allow notifications.

Then you’ll be notified when there’s a clever new tip to learn.

It is also possible to add tips to your personal saved collection.

This allows you to save particularly good tips so that you can quickly find them again later.

To add a tip, just tap the bookmark icon.

To view them, double-tap <, then tap Saved Tips.

You can remove a tip from Saved at any time by tapping the bookmark icon again.
