If you want to let people know where you are. The best thing to do is text I’m at and space
(current location pops up) tap that and it when send a map to where you currently are. This is
good for safety, if you’re going somewhere for the first time or you just want someone to know
where you are.

  1. Lol I dident know any of these

  2. You know I’m new still to iPhone I really don’t get much iPhone I was android for 6 years and in March is a year of iOS and it runs better then android thanks for the video I know more now 😀

  3. iOS will auto capitalize certain words like Curiosity (the name of a Mars rover) or Anonymous (the name of an internet group). If you don’t want that to happen go to Settings > General > Keyboards > Text Replacement. Tap the + button and in the Phrase field type the word in lower case. Leave the Shortcut field empty and tap Save. iOS will no longer capitalize the first letter. You can do the reverse – have iOS capitalize a word that normally would not be – by typing the word with a capital first letter in the Phrase field and not capitalized in the Shortcut field, then saving.
