iPhone users recently discovered that the volume buttons activate eight features, such as taking photos, shooting videos, and scanning documents. Among the most prominent of these tasks: – Sending distress messages: Users can send distress by pressing and holding the power button and one of the volume buttons. This will send the text to the emergency services and any contacts you have designated as an emergency. – Shooting videos: This task is activated just like taking photos, with the Othe Camera app first. Switch to video mode and press either volume button to start and end. – Scan documents: Just open the camera app and press the volume button to take a picture of the document. This can also be done by selecting Shutter. Then drag the corners to adjust the scan to fit the page, and then click Keep Scan. – Stop alarm: When the alarm goes off, you can long press on the notification banner to choose whether to snooze or stop the alarm. You can also press either volume button to snooze the alarm and have it sound once more following nine minutes. Block FaceID or Touch ID: Ways to block access to your iPhone might come in handy one day, and Apple designed that to be a quick change. Press and hold the side lock button or volume button for 2 seconds, wake the screen to call emergency services, and as soon as the slider appears, you can press the side buttons to lock FaceID or Touch ID. iPhone freezes: If your iPhone freezes, try performing a “hard restart.” This is where you manually turn the phone off and then on once more by holding down certain buttons. Start by holding the Volume Up button, let go, and then do the same with the Volume Down button. Disable the volume buttons: If you don’t want the volume buttons to affect anything on your iPhone when using a specific app, like Music, you can make use of Guided Access. Accessibility restricts anyone using your iPhone to the current app, so they can’t mess with anything else on the device.
