The subsequent feature shared by Morgan is described as a significant game changer. 

How often do you find yourself attempting to stretch your hand muscles to reach the other side of the keyboard while texting? 

The common experience of trying to execute a sliding motion across the keys, which often proves unsuccessful, can be frustrating.

But fear not, as there's a remedy – the 'one-handed' keyboard. 

This feature, conveniently located in keyboard settings, can be easily switched to, offering a solution to the daily struggle of awkward hand-stretching during texting.

The keys then reduce in size, compacting themselves onto one side of your screen, enhancing the efficiency of typing with one hand.

A particularly favored feature is the voice-over screen recording.

Who would have guessed that you could capture sound while recording your screen? Certainly not us.

To accomplish this, swipe down and long-press the screen record button, unveiling a small button with a microphone icon.

Simply click this to activate voice recording, capturing both your voice and whatever is displayed on your screen.

Here's another noteworthy feature: the ability to control the brightness of your flashlight. It's not just a simple 'on or off'; there are various levels of light intensity.

A particularly handy hack involves using the search bar that appears when you swipe down on the screen as a calculator. This means you may never need to open the calculator app again.

And here's one you might be familiar with, as it tends to pop up quite annoyingly: shaking your phone to undo an action.

For instance, if you accidentally delete something you were typing in your notes, a simple shake of your phone can undo the entire process.

You are welcome!
