You don't always need to download an app to get something done on your iPhone. Today's article will discuss some useful, free iOS shortcuts that will help expand what your iPhone can do.
1. Fast Charge Mode
This shortcut is a lifesaver when you need to charge your iPhone at a faster rate than normal. Of course, it doesn't have magical powers to speed up charging, but it will turn off Bluetooth and Wi-Fi , reduce the screen brightness to zero, and turn on Airplane Mode and Low Power Mode all at once.
All of this helps speed up charging by putting your iPhone into a semi-sleep state. Just tap the shortcut and select Yes from the Disable Services pop-up to enable Fast Charge.
2. Intelligent Power
Let's say you can't use the Fast Charge shortcut to quickly charge your iPhone and are now running low on battery. This is where Intelligent Power comes in, as it lets you save battery with its awesome "Ultra Low Power Mode" feature.
By default, enabling this shortcut will turn on your iPhone's Low Power Mode if your battery is below 25% and switch it to Ultra Low Power Mode below 5%, where you can only make phone calls and can't use the internet. It also reduces brightness to zero and turns off Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and cellular data.
The best part is that you can choose the battery percentage to activate Low Power and Ultra Low Power Mode when setting up the shortcut. You can also edit the values later.
3. Play Favorites
Music enthusiasts, this shortcut is a great tool. Play Favorites is a shortcut that shuffles and plays your favorite songs from Apple Music. Download this shortcut and you won't have to sit down and choose songs before you start driving.
All you have to do is sit back, relax and enjoy while all the tunes in your favorite playlist are automatically played for you. You can even edit the shortcut to play a different playlist instead.
4. Water Eject
While the latest iPhones are water-resistant, they’re not waterproof. If you accidentally drop your iPhone in the pool, this shortcut will at least get water out of your iPhone’s speaker.
When you run Water Eject, you will see a volume bar on the left side of the screen. The volume will be at 100% when your iPhone vibrates. You will hear a chime when it is finished, which usually takes less than 20 seconds to complete.
This shortcut is a safe way to dry out iPhone speakers as you shouldn't poke anything inside to try to dry them out.
5. Convert Photos to GIF
Some social media platforms, like Discord , allow you to set animated GIFs as your profile picture. With Convert Photos to GIF, you can select multiple photos and videos from your Photos app and turn them into animated GIFs to use anywhere.
This is the perfect shortcut for creating fun, engaging content to post on social media or even joking around with all your friends in a group chat.
Remember that tapping Done won't save your GIF. You'll need to tap the Share icon at the bottom and select Save Image to download the GIF to the Photos app.
