A 9to5Mac video hosted by Fernando catalogues 15 underused iOS features spanning Back Tap, Spotlight search, Live Photo long exposure, Visual Lookup, and document scanning inside Notes. The timestamp structure runs from 0:30 to 12:50 and targets users on iOS 26 and recent iPhone hardware.
The value here is not in any single tip but in the density. Back Tap alone, a feature buried in Accessibility settings, lets you trigger any shortcut with a double or triple tap on the back glass. The trackpad mode and one-handed keyboard tricks address daily friction that millions of users tolerate without knowing a fix exists. The timer-stops-music workaround is the kind of thing that circulates for years on forums before most users encounter it.
The full video is worth watching for the Spotlight segment starting at 6:19 and the Visual Lookup walkthrough at 9:20, both of which demonstrate search and image recognition capabilities Apple has expanded significantly but never prominently marketed. If you think you know your iPhone, this is a structured test of that assumption.
