It’s only safe to share your iPhone, iPad, and Mac passcodes and passwords with people you trust completely, which typically includes family members whom you would trust with your healthcare and bank accounts. If those people also use your devices regularly, you can simplify their access by adding their fingerprint to Touch ID or their face to Face ID. Touch ID allows you to add up to five fingerprints, while Face ID provides an option for a second face.

All Bluetooth devices come with a name, but those names are often difficult to decipher, such as ATUMTEK, DX01Gu, and MY-CAR, making it hard to remember which is which in your iPhone’s Bluetooth settings. What you may not realize is that you can rename many Bluetooth devices to tidy up that list. Go to Settings > Bluetooth, connect to the device, and tap the blue ⓘ button to the right of its name. If you can rename the device, you’ll be able to tap the Name field and enter a new one.

Serious photographers take care of their lenses. The rest of us just stuff our iPhones into our pockets or purses and pay no attention to the fingerprints and grime they collect. If your iPhone’s camera lens is smudged, it will impact the quality of your photos. Take a few seconds to polish it with a microfiber cloth now and then, or, you know, simply wipe it with the edge of your T-shirt. Your photos will thank you.
