20 years as an aviation and automotive tech, I taught myself "software coding" and was hired by Aldus PageMaker. Then Adobe, Microsoft, Apple and became an independent consultant traveling the Globe, instructing at Oxford, Austrailia's University network, Scotland, MIT, NASA and several newspapers and magazines. I ended as a professor at UofW in Seattle. Now 78, I can't know it all about my iMac, iPad, iPhone and Apple Watch - you've filled that gap! Thanks

Everyone seems to like the spacebar tip to edit text.
Another similar feature is to push down and hold on the text you want to edit and a zoom bubble comes up and you can drag the cursor wherever you’d like. I use this all the time since I find it easier to select where I want the cursor to be.
Keep up the great videos, they’re always very informative. Thank you for sharing them with us.

OMG you blew my mind with moving the cursor by holding the spacebar! I’m not a newbie, in fact I have a degree in IT and I had no clue that existed!! I will use it constantly!!

Excellent.
Even the first tip on losing the ads!👏👏

The spacebar tip to edit text is a game changer for me. I never could get the curser back to edit my texts. I love the Aa tip too - so handy. Thanks!

Regarding the flashlight …. For Harry Potter fans …. if you have listen for Siri enabled, just say “Siri loomis “, she will respond with “it’s on now” and your flashlight is on. When done, say “Siri nox” and she will say “it’s off now” and your flashlight goes off.

Hi Rich!
Very helpful video! I, like you knew most of these tips, but don’t use them. It’s easy to forget. I didn’t know you could get rid of the ads in Safari. That is a cool feature! Thanks for that application. I use the spacebar to move the curser all the time. Once you start using it, you can’t not use it. I shared these tips with my husband. He knew about the weather application and the spacebar, but everything else was new to him. Thanks as always for your research and putting out great content. You’re always in the know. Thanks for taking the time to share all with us. Happiness, Teresa

I love your Rich videos and I mirror the way you organize your iPhone. Clean, minimalist and very organized. Congratulations on the channel, from Brazil.

Great tips! I love the one with tapping the space bar and holding to control the curser

The Reply to your Bengals txt was epic all by itself. 😂

Hi Rich. Your videos are great. I rediscovered a couple of things I’d forgotten.

Just a little bit of feedback which was sparked by the cursor moving tip. You say to tap the space bar when in fact you need to hold your finger on it.

Tap to me is touch and release which is what you use numerous times in iOS. I just thought some of your viewers might benefit from the explanation.

I love these videos…they’re incredibly helpful. Thanks for posting…I’m learning quite a bit of new ‘tricks’!! Please keep them coming!

Amazing! I am consistently awed by the things you bring out that I didn’t know. The flashlight tip, the tapping and holding the space bar to move the curser, the triple tap to select the whole body to copy, are a few that will be very useful for me. Thanks so much for bringing these little tips to our attention, Rich! So helpful!

[jeananderson]

Oh my goodness! These are all new to me. Thank you for making this video. Sending on to all my senior friends. 😎🥰

[BigBearBloo]

Most exciting about the space bar curser trick!

[mbn]

Like the space bar tip when I reply in a hurry almost always type the wrong letter thanks🙄👏🏼

[doanetriggs]

These tips are gold. I often open flashlight by just TELLING Seri to open flashlight. …One less step!

[dmkeekl]

As ever…..brilliant! Thanks Rich love from Scotland.

Thanks for the photos tips, the word and paragraph selecting, the weather app. And now that I have written them down, I will remember them. Maybe 🧐🙂
