iPhone Tips and Tricks
Calling all fellow iPhone users! 📢
We have recently discovered a few new things and want to share them with you. These tricks help us work, communicate, and live life in this connected world! 🤳
3 iPhone Tips From #Jenallee
1️⃣ iPhone Markup
We have been using markup for a while now, however, we find ourselves using these two features frequently.
- Arrows
- Snap to shape
You might be asking “What is markup?”. Markup is a way to mark and annotate photos on your iPhone.
To access markup:
- Click on the photo you want to edit
- Click edit
- Click the circled pen icon in the top right corner
Now you can edit the photo with ink 🎉
But there is more!
- Arrows
To add an arrow click on the plus button and select the arrow! Now you can move or resize the arrow anywhere on the photo! Whoop 🙌
- Snap to Shape
When using the inking feature in markup, it can get sloppy. You can clean it up by inking your shape, long press, and watching it snap into shape! For example, I will circle part of a photo, long press, and voila… it will snap into a circle!

We all love the ctrl z shortcut on the computer to undo something we just did. It is always frustrating on your phone when you do something, mess up, and then can’t undo it! 😫 This happens to us all the time! Well, one day, Sallee accidentally deleted a long text she had written 😠 She did NOT want to re-write everything again, so she jumped on Google and searched for an answer… and yep, there is an undo on the iPhone! Who knew?!?
Take three fingers, double-tap the screen, and check out the options! 😲
Yep! There is an undo option, cut, copy, paste, and redo! 🎉
We posted this aha moment on TikTok and learned another way to undo… simply shake your phone! Boom 💥 So easy!

Now, this does not sound like a fun one… and you might be saying, “I would want to do this!” However, we have found ourselves needing this feature.
Here are two examples of how we have used Screen Time:
- Our kiddos are on their phones WAY too much and we need to restrict their time on apps
- We want to self-regulate and use Screen Time to help us not stay on an app too long throughout the day. (Sallee needs this for TikTok & Jeni for Instagram)
Here’s how to limit specific apps:
- Open settings
- Click on Screen Time
- Click on App Limits
- Add a limit to a particular app
Here’s how to ensure you have downtime and can turn apps off:
- Open Settings
- Click on Screen Time
- Click on Downtime
- Create a schedule of time to turn off the apps
Both of these are great ways to limit app usage for your kids or to help you self-regulate your own usage.
