Tips
You know this Message feature you send to your loved ones or friends when you can’t take their call. You can send a message on your iPhone to avoid using the “Sorry, I can’t talk right now”? Go to Settings > Phone, and Respond With Text, then replace one of the existing messages with your own.
Dave is one to listen to news, music, or a podcast as you drift off to sleep? I know I am not alone. Did you know you can have your iPhone stop playing music after a certain time - just set a Timer, choose how long you want your timer to last for, and before you complete, press ‘When Timer Ends’. You can then scroll down to the bottom and select ‘Stop Playing’.
