It’s one of the most used apps on the iPhone, but we’ve found that many people aren’t using the calculator properly.
In fact, the calculator has tons of features you probably didn’t know about.
Did you know that if you make a small mistake, you don’t have to press C and start over? You can actually delete individual digits by simply swiping left or right on the display.
If you want to save time on your calculations, there are tricks for that as well.
You can actually copy the last result without having access to the app. If you finish your calculation and move to another app, you can actually copy the last result without going back to the calculator.
Just tap and hold on the app and an icon will appear with the option to copy the last figure.
Many of us think of the iPhone calculator as a simple tool, but it actually has a lot of features. For example, an app can be a scientific calculator.
To do this, first make sure the screen orientation is not locked. Because you have to flip your phone vertically to see the science buttons.
Once you’re sure it’s unlocked, turn it sideways to access the scientific calculator. Scientific calculator provides exponential, logarithmic and trigonometric functions.
Scientific calculators also have their own secret features, and even more are revealed by simply pressing the button labeled “2nd”.
Also, as a slightly quirky feature, Scientific Calculator also allows the user to generate random numbers. This could be useful in games, for example.this is in the bottom right[Rand]It is possible by pressing a button.
If you ever need to switch between standard and scientific calculators, you can easily do so without losing your calculations.
If you rotate to other modes, the app will keep your calculations, so you won’t lose your progress.
In other tech news, we recently told you that firefighters warned you why you shouldn’t charge your phone overnight.
A Kent Fire Rescue firefighter said in a TikTok post:
“First of all, when you’re asleep, you don’t smell anything, so even if you start burning, you won’t wake up.
“Second, you lose consciousness in just three breaths.
“Number 3: Many people have cheap chargers, faulty chargers, or even genuine chargers have been known to catch fire.
“If possible, I recommend charging your phone when you’re there and staying awake in terms of firefighting. It’s much safer.”
