We have compiled a series of great tricks for users who have an iPhone with a large screen.
Smartphone screens have grown to almost double their original size. The first iPhone had a 3.5-inch screen and the iPhone 13 Pro Max has a 6.7-inch diagonal. This offers us many advantages, but also some other drawbacks. You can not deny that it is more uncomfortable to use an iPhone with a large screen, but with these tricks it will be a little easier.
With these tips, using your large iPhone will be much easier. They will bring you the icons and the system interface, offer you secret buttons for quick access and much more.
Easy reach
A feature released when Apple introduced the iPhone 6 Plus and that remains today. This iOS option allows you to zoom in on the screen, lower it halfway, so that we can easy access to the upper area. An option that we recommend you have activated if you have an iPhone with a large screen.
- Enter the iPhone Settings.
- Now click on Accessibility.
- Enter Touch.
- Activate or deactivate the Easy reach switch.
Zoom on screen
Screen zoom is “technically” intended for people with poor vision who need larger lenses, but it is also a good function on iPhone with large screens. This novelty was presented together with the iPhone XS Max, at the time the largest iPhone that Apple had launched.
- Enter the iPhone Settings.
- Tap on Display and brightness.
- At the bottom, tap on Display and adjust the screen zoom.
Touch back
One of the best tricks that Apple has pulled up its sleeve lately. We have a kind of “back button” on the iPhone that allows us to quickly execute certain actions. Simply by touching the Apple apple two or three times, we can activate it, and it is also completely customizable. A very useful trick especially on large iPhones.
- Open Settings on your iPhone.
- Click on Accessibility.
- In Physical and motor skills, tap on Touch.
- Scroll down to the bottom and enter Play Back.
- Inside we will have two options to configure the double and triple press.
One-handed keyboard
Another trick available in iOS is to use the special one-handed keyboard. To activate it, you simply have to press and hold the icon with the face emoji in the lower left, and touch one of the two icons that will bring the keyboard closer together to one side or the other.
AssistiveTouch
This iOS function allows us to have a fully configurable floating button with different quick actions. It is undoubtedly of great help on iPhone with large screens where it is difficult to access all areas. You can activate and configure it from Settings> Accessibility> Touch> AssistiveTouch.
Put the applications you use the most below
This is a very simple trick. On iPhones with large screens, the most difficult thing is to access the upper area of the screen. For this reason, the ideal is to place the apps that we use the most in the lower area from the home screen.
It is true that on iOS we cannot place the icons of the apps where we want, but we can create widgets with blank spaces to help us in this task. Of course, you should also take advantage of icons that you have in the dock.
Sure with these tricks improve the user experience with your iPhone. Especially if you have an iPhone Max, or small hands, you can use your iPhone easier if you apply these tips.
