Just a few things guys. If you want to select more that one app on your Home Screen you can just continue to press one, and start tapping the others. You can move them all at once. Second, if you press the dots at the bottom you can skip to a different page on the Home Screen without “endless swiping”. Thanks for your videos and have a great day
Thank you for the moving multiple Apps tip! Didn’t know this one and just tried it. Kind of tricky holding the one App while selecting the others but I’ll get the hang of it. Rearranging my iPad right now and this is much easier.
Great roundup of settings. Not into Widgets or the App Library but I’m also not into more than 2-screens of App Icons. I do use folders and didn’t realize that many of the categories in the App Library are what I already use until I checked today. I am considering how I manage the Apps on my iPad. They currently match my iPhone. This should probably change to the 15-Apps I use the most in the Dock and Widgets for the most accessed items, e.g. Specific Notes, Specific Docs, etc and any left over folders on the second screen. I’ve heard rearranging Widgets can be a real pain but, something new to tackle. 😎
For me (David P.) it's one of those things where the amount of time I might save by thoughtfully organizing every app like David L. does just seems like a lot of work. :) But I like your idea too! Really getting the most out of widgets... Maybe I'll try making a widgets-only (or widgets-mostly) home screen...
I'm new to the iPhone ecosystem. (Apple user for more than three decades.) Will be taking a good look at this video, because if I had my druthers, I'd never have made the switch from Android after eight years.
Your videos are super helpful. I am moving from Android to I phone and it's been a huge headache. Thanks for all the useful information and very clear explanations about how to do it and where to find it. I'm a teacher by profession and it's a rare quality to find tutorials that actually take in to account the possibility that the view is a novice.
*UPDATE* watch from 4:32 to 4:47 before reading. thanks. iOS 7 first introduced the swipe up "control centre." iOS 11 introduced a new design to the control centre, which is still present in iOS 15.2.1.
I have 1 tip for you guys: Each time you say, "go back to main page of the setting app", if you long press settings will appear and you can get there with 1 press. You always press multiple times to reach the main page of the setting app but you are actually using many extra steps. There you go! I'm sure you two know about this but if you do not then there is a piece of content for a future video.
Thanks for the reminder! This was in one of their previous videos and I keep forgetting to use it - just tried it again tonight and it is one tip I need to remember.
I am a little confused. You say if you long press settings will appear and you can get there with 1 press. Which button are you pressing? When i press the home button I get siri.
Thank you. I completed all 22 steps, but got confused on Turning off In App Ratings and Reviews, because you turned it on at the end of the video. I kept mine off.
This content is so great. I didn't know how enabling WiFi calling does on your iPhone until I tried it. I want to know if enabling it will drain more battery from your device?
I heard that you need significant locations turned off in order to use optimized charging? Is it true, should I have significants locations turned on or off?
Use control center for power mode. I like my battery Ivón yellow. I drag and add apps to stack apps in the bottom bar as well. I was so jazzed when I first tried that. Since I have a pic of my family as my screen saver I really like having a clean screen.
I have one screen for my primary apps, then multiple screens with the rest of my apps, listed alphabetically. On my primary screen, I do have 2 folders (weather & school), but I generally avoid folders. Needless to say, I don’t use the App Library, especially since I don’t like the way it categorizes the apps.
I loved the control center feature. I used to use it all the time to change the brightness on my phone, use the flashlight, mess with music and get to other apps quickly when I had an IPhone SE(gen 1) I got the Gen 2 SE and had to get a good case so it wouldn’t break easily and now I can’t use it hardly every cause when I try to bring it up it either won’t bring anything up or would bring something else up😪 wish they would add a way to change how you bring up the control center so I could use it again.
When I shut my apps off from those little arrows I ended up not being able to do some things on my phone so I only have three on I have the find my phone, emergency like 911, and Netwerk wireless I turn that off and I didn’t have anything I had a white screen. Turn it back on and I had my screen again.
In "System Services" should i turn off Device Management" that's above emergency SOS? just want to be sure i'm doing it right just like you guys do. Thank you again for all your hard work, you two young Sirs have helped a lot
Maybe off topic but any info on this safari security issue floating around and being told iOS 15 and above don’t use safari ?? Any help would be appreciated.
Here are a couple of things I'm curious about. 1) Sometimes in texting or e-mail I'll somehow have "okayed" a word that is not a word, such as snd for "and." Thereafter the dictionary never underlines it, and thinks it's just great. 2) Although I thought I had chosen UK English for my device, I get underlines if I use for examples "honour," "patronISE" and similar -ise endings, "catalogue," etc. How can I stop that? and 3) tips on how to better organise one's music library. It's shocking when Jimi Hendrix comes on (Alexis Corner introducing him actually) very loudly after I've just run through some quiet classical stuff ...
Just stumbled upon your channel and I really enjoy it. Thanks for your explanation of what is safe to turn off to preserve battery life and limit unnecessary data usage. Can you tell me if you have a tutorial on how to put text on the lock screen? For example "this phone belongs to............., if found call..............or email.........
I noticed that after doing some of the suggestions from some of your prior videos to optimize my iPhone, all of the sudden my screen mirroring setting is not finding my devices. It searches but can detect any device. I have followed all the suggestions on the web and nothing. It was working find before
I've been using app folders for years, though I also leave a few regularly used apps right on the screen, so I need a couple of screens to accommodate everything. I should probably use the App Library more, though!
Some articles said that if you want to use optimized battery charging, you have to turn on the "system customization" and "significant locations" in the location setting. Is that true? Can I still use optimized battery charging without turning those location services on?
Back when I had an android I was able to schedule when my text messages were sent. I have not been able to do that on my iOS 11. When I Google instructions it shows it for 12 and 14 but not anything for a 11. Is that true? I have learned so much by watching your videos thank you so much
Great info! ? On WiFi calling; when I turned it on I had to enter my address and then got a blurb “that if I call 911 & emergency services can’t locate me they’ll go to the address I entered”. Should I still turn it in ?
Yes! That emergency address is a fallback in case your phone has no GPS connection. As long as you have any connection at all, 911 will receive your GPS location.
Should I keep iPhone plugged in and charging when it’s next to charger, or do I only charge when it runs low? Basically, I wanted to know if it affects battery life to always have it on charger until I leave house? Thanks!
My phone says iPhone driver not back up. And I have an iPhone 12 promax. Do I turn it off or do I leave it on? Regarding the cellular where you said to go to that page and go all the way to the bottom to iCloud back up?
David and David can y’all please tell me if iCloud Keychain safe for storing my passwords or is there anyone on her that follows them and uses Keychain to store your password is is safe
Hi Guys, I am a UK follower of your reviews, which are great! Could you please show me how I can get my iPhone to give a sound alert, when my Apple watch series 7 is fully charged. Many thanks
shortcut annimations: I want my iphone 13 to turn do not disturb off when connecting to my home wifi network. I have configured this in shortcut automation , however need to push little triangle to run it....which defeats the definition of automation? anybody? my pixel2 did this without me pushing buttons or remembering....
The hollow arrow icon on my Home Screen is on most of the time. Can’t pinpoint who or what is doing that. How can I find that out? My phone is a iphone 10R.
Shoud i turn off optimize battery charging when I'm on the go and i need my battery to charge as fast as possible? And turn it on when i charge my phone overnight or when i don't need it as soon as possible????
@5:02 I don't know about anyone else, but one of my biggest problems with Bluetooth "True Wireless" earbuds is a lot of times the max volume isn't enough. I have found the Airpods Pro have the best "volume ceiling" (?). The interesting part is, when I'm listening with the Airpods Pro it says the dB is 93-96 (or whatever the number is) is much louder than when the "Hearing" app is telling me I'm getting the same dB out of my Sony, Sennheiser or Bose (the Bose get pretty loud with the new firmware). I think that 3rd party Bluetooth earbuds aren't reporting the correct dB to that app and the iPhone is, in turn, limiting the earbuds to what it "thinks" is that dB range. Or maybe the 3rd party earbuds software is doing it on purpose because of hardware limitations. It would be interesting to have the equipment to actually test this.
Just a few things guys. If you want to select more that one app on your Home Screen you can just continue to press one, and start tapping the others. You can move them all at once.

I second the appreciation sentiment. I’ve been hoping for this feature so thank you for pointing it out
My sister & I have had our apps in folders for the last 10yrs. Like u said it’s nice to just have them all on 1 page 👍🏼
Blonde guy’s not interrupting. He adds information and keeps it switching up. Some impatient person said it once and now there’s copycats

Pretty sure you have to have significant locations turned on for optimized battery charging to actually work.
You guys are so helpful. Thanks!

Liked before the video started 🙌🏽
Great as always!
I wish you make a video about things that Pats should do if they want to shine again next season. Go Pats!!!
Greetings from Greece!
Thank you guys for all of your videos!
I have my first iPhone ever (confession time) and your channel has given me great settings tips. Thank you
Excellent video, thank you so much!!!
Background refresh has nothing to do with notifications from messages applications. Mine is completely off and I still get notifications
system customization allow you to set night shift on auto mode for example [sunrise and sunset], I leave this enabled
This content is so great. I didn't know how enabling WiFi calling does on your iPhone until I tried it. I want to know if enabling it will drain more battery from your device?
I agree, I like only 1-2 pages of apps, too. It cuts down on confusion for me. I name each folder
Please can you link to the playlist? Just bought an iPhone 13 and so far you two have been incredible!
Hi guys , what stand are you using? I would like to buy one
Great Tips like always...Thanks :)

Great information - thanks so much
Should I keep Wi-Fi Assist on? Will this drain my cellular data plan?
What does it tell you when you read the description

Hi David and David I love your videos and I have A question for you how do I get ready for your new iPhone 📱 off my phone 📱
I have one screen for my primary apps, then multiple screens with the rest of my apps, listed alphabetically. On my primary screen, I do have 2 folders (weather & school), but I generally avoid folders. Needless to say, I don’t use the App Library, especially since I don’t like the way it categorizes the apps.
I loved the control center feature. I used to use it all the time to change the brightness on my phone, use the flashlight, mess with music and get to other apps quickly when I had an IPhone SE(gen 1) I got the Gen 2 SE and had to get a good case so it wouldn’t break easily and now I can’t use it hardly every cause when I try to bring it up it either won’t bring anything up or would bring something else up😪 wish they would add a way to change how you bring up the control center so I could use it again.
I am like David. I only keep one page of apps. You guys are great. Thanks! ✨
When I shut my apps off from those little arrows I ended up not being able to do some things on my phone so I only have three on I have the find my phone, emergency like 911, and Netwerk wireless I turn that off and I didn’t have anything I had a white screen. Turn it back on and I had my screen again.
Given the news of the Safari leaks re:Google ID/info, are you replacing it with a different browser on your iphones? I have an iphone 12. Thx!
Great job guys ! This video sounds like a compilation of a lot of your other videos. The same information.

I have an 📱 SE 2. For better battery should I have it on 3G or LTE?
I actually really like the automatic download because if I download something on my phone I also want it on my Ipad.
Some articles said that if you want to use optimized battery charging, you have to turn on the "system customization" and "significant locations" in the location setting. Is that true? Can I still use optimized battery charging without turning those location services on?

Yes! That emergency address is a fallback in case your phone has no GPS connection. As long as you have any connection at all, 911 will receive your GPS location.
Thank you!
By turning on the In-App Ratings & Reviews, doesn’t that mean you want to rate and review?

U just have to press LTE instead of 5G

Great video!
Shoud i turn off optimize battery charging when I'm on the go and i need my battery to charge as fast as possible? And turn it on when i charge my phone overnight or when i don't need it as soon as possible????
So if I use an Apple Watch will I still have full capability with Motion & Fitness turned off in System Services?
