Have you added the built-in QR scanner to your iPhone's Control Centre?

Picture
QR codes remain a feature of our lives still  - so it is important that you can quickly access your QR code scanner.

I regularly show clients a feature of the iPhone that they have not yet discovered. There is a built-in QR code scanner on your iPhone, one that you can easily add to the Control Centre so that it can be accessed in a flash - without having to open the camera or any other app first.

How to really quickly work out what song is currently playing

Picture
A lot of you will be familiar with the app Shazam.

It has been around for years, allowing you to identify the details of a song that is currently playing. You would open the app, tap an option to get Shazam to 'listen' to the song, and the details would appear once the song was identified.

Apple acquired Shazam in 2018, and the Shazam song recognition functionality has now been made easily accessible on your iPhone, without any need to download a separate app.

Even better, the new Music Recognition feature lets you identify a song that is currently playing on the same device - not just songs that are playing out loud on another device.

One of my favourite features of iOS 13 so far

Picture
If, like me, you need to regularly check and change the Wi-Fi network to which you are connected, you will love this new feature of iOS 13. It is one that I have been hoping for in many past iOS upgrades.

Up until now, switching Wi-Fi networks has required a visit to the Settings App, to the Wi-Fi option.

This has meant that, when I checked what Wi-Fi I am connected to using Control Centre, I then needed to go through several further 'taps' to change to a different Wi-Fi.

Under iOS 13, changing your Wi-Fi network can be done directly from the Control Centre. Here's how.

Why can't I get internet on my iPhone when I am away from home?

A client of iTandCoffee recently asked why he was getting an error message saying that there was 'No internet available' and that his 'Mobile Data is Turned Off' whenever he was away from home or work.

He was not aware of having done anything to turn off his mobile data.

In fact, he had inadvertently tapped a new control in his Control Centre - one that allows Mobile Data to be easily turned on and off. 

This new control (indicated by the red arrow in the  first image) was added in iOS 11.

So, if you find you are suddenly without mobile data, swipe up from the bottom of the screen to view your Control Centre.  (On an iPhone X, swipe down from top right corner.)

If the mobile data symbol does not have a green background, tap it to turn it back on.

Easily turn your iPhone into a magnifying glass

Picture
Did you know that you can quickly turn your iPhone into a magnifying glass?

This can come in so handy when you are trying to read some small print - or for those of us whose eyesight is not what it used to be.  Great for when you have forgotten your glasses and can't read the menu!

A Magnifier can be added to your Control Centre. Just visit Settings -> Control Centre  and choose Customise Controls.  

In the bottom part of that screen is the Magnifier option, which can be added to the list of apps options that are available in your Controls Centre.
​

Do you need step by step instructions of how to add and use this feature?

iTandCoffee Club members can access step by step instructions in the 'Members Only' area - just select the button below if you are a member.
