The complete
guide to iOS 8
The complete
guide to iOS 8
Everything you need to know about Apples latest mobile operating system
he iPhone has changed a lot over the last

seven years, gaining ever more powerful
processors, improved screens and better
cameras. And as the iPhone has evolved, so
has the operating system that makes it so
good. iOS is the name of that system, and it is
now on its eighth major release.
The new update adds a selection of
powerful new tools and abilities to your
device to make it even better. From the ability
to interact with the notifications that slide in
10 The iPhone 6 Book
from the top of your screen, to the predictive

typing keyboard that is set to speed up your
messages, theres bound to be something in
the free update that gets you excited.
There have been big improvements to
Siri, the talking digital assistant, new apps for
you to try out, and updates to iCloud which
will help you store every photo you ever take
online, so you can access them no matter
what device youre using. There have even
been improvements to the Messages app,
with new options to send audio clips and

videos with a quick swipe of your thumb.
Meanwhile, the Photos app boasts a wealth of
new editing tools to help you touch up your
snaps on the go so you can show them off to
your friends at their very best. And if you own
a Mac or iPad, a new feature called Continuity
makes it easier than ever to move between
your devices and pick up on one where you
left off on another. Lets take a look at what
iOS 8 has to offer.

The complete guide to iOS 8
Your photos
everywhere
The iPhone is a perfect device for
taking brilliant photographs wherever
you go and with the new iCloud Photo
Library, all of your images will instantly be
uploaded to the cloud so you can access them
wherever you are in the world.
Every photo and video you take will be
automatically added to your iCloud, so you can
access your entire library from any device, any
time you like. Youll need to activate iCloud on
your iPhone for your snaps to be saved, but
once they are you can also sign in on your other
devices, such as an iPad and a Mac, and have all
your photos at your fingertips. This will also save
space on your iPhone: the system will upload the
high-resolution version of all your snaps, saving a
smaller copy on your device thats perfect for the
screen size. No more deleting photos just to save
precious storage space!
Of course, the uploads will also maintain all of
your organisation, so you can see your photos
from years ago sorted by date, or quickly see
which shots youve marked as your favourites.
Editing your photos with iOS 8

The new Photos app also
comes complete with a
number of extra editing
tools. In iOS 7, Photos offered quick
tools for cropping your shots, quickly
enhancing them or rotating them,
along with a small number of built-in
filters. In iOS 8, however, the app is a
lot more powerful.
First off, you get more effective
controls to straighten and crop your
image, with a dial for adjusting the
angle of the shot. The biggest change
has come in the form of the image

adjustments, though. You can adjust
the light in the photo, to brighten
up dark areas or pull more details
from blow-out skies. You can also
adjust colour, to make your photos
really pop. If you like, you can even
go deeper and change things like
highlights and shadows. Its a really
powerful system that can bring a
whole new lease of life to your shots
and for it to be built into iOS 8 is a
great bonus.

Send videos via Messages
The Messages
app has also seen
an update with
iOS8. The app, which always
allowed you to send free
messages (including photos
and videos) over Wi-Fi, has
been given an overhaul to
make things much easier.
First off, the process
of choosing a photo to
send to a friend has been
streamlined. Tap the camera
icon beside the message area
and a pop-up will appear.
Instead of having to tap three
or four times to attach a
photo, your recent shots will
appear in the menu itself, so
you can easily tap one to add
it to the message.
Alternatively, tap and
hold on the camera icon
and the camera will open,
ready for a selfie straight
away. You can slide your thumb up to take a quick photo of yourself, or
slide right to start recording a video. Whichever you choose, it can be
sent with a swipe up its a much quicker system than before. Finally,
Apple has added voice messaging via text: you can tap and hold on the
microphone icon to record a short message, then swipe it up to send.
The faster QuickType

keyboard
The iPhones
keyboard
has always
been among the best
smartphone keyboards
around. Its been given
a major update in iOS 8,
though, with the addition
of smart suggestions.
The system can still make
suggestions for a word youre
in the middle of, so you can
tap it to instantly add it into
your message. However,
its even cleverer than that
it can actually read what
youre typing and make
suggestions for the words
you might want to use next.
For example, if youve typed
Im on my in Messages,
itll suggest words like way,
bike or holiday before you
type anything else, so you
can complete the sentence
easily. It will even adapt for the app youre using, so youll get informal
suggestions in Messages, but in Mail youll get more professional
options Dear instead of Hi at the start of your message, for example.
Get family friendly with Family Sharing

If you have other family members with
iPhones and iPads, iOS 8 is making it easier
than ever to help all your family access all of
the shared content you own. In iOS 7, and every version
before it, each app, movie and album you bought with
your personal Apple ID was locked to your account.
This proved a problem when the kids wanted to watch
a movie on the iPad that wasnt signed into the correct
account, for instance. Now, though, up to six people
can share content purchased without needing to share
accounts. Set up a single credit card on every family
members account and you can manage everything they
purchase easily.
But it has other advantages as well. You will have a
family Photo Stream so you can create a family album,
complete with videos and comments, with ease. A single
shared calendar makes it easier to stay organised. And
youll be able to find everyones devices with Find My
iPhone quickly and simply.
WorldMags.net
WorldMags.net
Powered-up search
Spotlight activated by swiping down from the middle
of the home screen has always been a great way of
finding the content on your device quickly and easily.
Whether you wanted to quickly open an app, phone a friend or
listen to a song, its been the first port of call for many users. In
iOS8 it possesses some powerful new options that take it beyond
just your iPhone.
Searches will now also bring up results from the web, so you
can quickly look for a Wikipedia article, a movie that is currently
showing at the cinema, or a location such as a restaurant. Tap these
and you will be taken to the relevant app, to see your search online,
or in the Maps app. You can look up apps, music and books from
the iTunes and App Stores, too, then download the thing youre
looking for with a tap. If youve never used Spotlight before, now is
the time to start.
Stay in shape with the

Health app
The biggest new
app that Apple has
added in iOS 8
is Health. Its a tracker for
just about everything you
could imagine in your body.
From the amount of sleep
you get each night to the
calories youve taken in and
the number of flights of
steps that youve climbed,
everything can be tracked
through this app.
Most functions will require
a third-party accessory
to obtain accurate data
wearable health trackers
can count all kinds of data
these days, and almost
all of them currently sync
with their own apps for the
iPhone. With iOS 8, these
apps can all send their data
to Health, where it can be
gathered into one place and
displayed on bright cards so
you can easily see exactly how you are. And with the iPhone 6 and 5ss
built-in motion tracker, steps can be tracked easily and automatically
added to the Health app.
Even medical information can be tracked through the app, so you
can automatically send blood pressure data direct to your doctor, or add
an emergency card so you can be looked after properly.
Interact with notifications

The revamped
Notification Centre
system in iOS 8
now allows you to quickly
react to notifications as
soon as they happen,
without having to switch
to another app to deal
with them. For example,
if you receive an iMessage
from a friend, you can
swipe down on the popup notification and start
typing out a message
without even leaving the
app youre currently using.
This trick works for all kinds
of app notifications, too.
You can accept invites to
calendar events, respond
to emails, and even react to
notifications from apps like
Facebook with a few taps.
Its a really welcome addition
that makes using your
iPhone every day that bit easier. And, of course, if you dont want to deal
with a notification right away, you can always slide it up off the screen
to dismiss it.
Youll also get extra notification functionality on the iPhone lock
screen. You can swipe across on things like calendar invitations to accept
or decline them instantly, and you can even delete emails and other
notifications quickly with a swipe to the left. This proves really useful
when you get things like spam emails you wont even need to unlock
your iPhone to erase them.

Get help from Siri
more efficiently
Siri, your iOS devices personal
assistant, has been developed and
enhanced further in iOS 8. The
most apparent upgrade is in the new Hey Siri
feature. You will need to activate this feature
in Settings (go to Settings>General>Siri)
but once done you will be able to activate
Siri simply by picking your device up and
speaking Hey Siri (there is no need to press
the Home button as before).
The result is a much more natural and
fluid process of asking Siri specific questions,
which it excels at, or asking it to perform key
functions on your device without you having
to lift a finger. For example, you can ask Siri to
send a message, update your Facebook status
and even look up the birthdate of a particular
person and the more you use it, the better
Siri gets at listening to and meeting your
demands. Apple is also working closely with
car manufacturers so that you will be able to
ask things of Siri on the move without having
to take your eyes off the road.
Store files with

iCloud Drive
iCloud has always been a great way to store and
sync your documents made in Pages, Numbers and
Keynote, but in iOS 8 that ability is expanded. iCloud
Drive lets you store any file online, in a secure location accessible
from anywhere.
The system is a little like the third-party service Dropbox. With
your iCloud email address, you also get 5GB of free online storage.
Apps can add access to your iCloud Drive, and from these apps
you can then open documents you have stored there, or save new
work to the cloud.
This is great if you use a number of devices and want to
switch to the best one for each task. Sketch something out on
your iPhone on the train and you can add it to a more detailed
document on your Mac. Of course, if you dont own those other
devices, thats not a problem: iCloud Drive still works great as a
backup for your most important files.
It lets you store any file

online, in a secure location
accessible from anywhere

All-new apps
For a long time now, as well as creating the built-in
iPhone apps, Apple has developed other apps and
added them to the App Store for users to download.
Powerful yet easy-to-use apps like iPhoto and Pages are often
near the top of the bestsellers chart, and with good reason:
Apple builds the iPhone and makes the iOS operating system,
so its apps are brilliantly designed to work well alongside all the
features of the system.
And, with the arrival of iOS 8, two of those formerly
downloadable first-party apps are now included as part of the
operating system by default. iBooks is, as the name suggests,
designed to be the best way to read on your iOS device. You
can buy millions of books through the iBooks Store and use the
app to read them on your touch-screen. Plus, the books will
sync to other devices instantly.
The second new app to now be built into the system is
Podcasts. It, too, is pretty self-explanatory, but with an easy-touse interface and access to all your favourite podcasts through
the iTunes Store. The two apps are added to your iPhone
automatically when you update to iOS 8, so its just a case of
opening them and getting started.
Two formerly downloadable

first-party apps are now included as
part of iOS 8 by default
Syncing made
simple
One of the most useful new
features of iOS 8 is Handoff. Its a
new feature that links together Macs
and iOS devices more closely. For the first time,
those that own a Mac and iPad along with
their iPhone will be able to work with all three
of them unlike ever before.
Handoff helps each device communicate
with each other in real time. So if youre writing
an email and get back to your desk, you can
fire up your Mac and an icon will appear in the
Dock. Click the icon and the Mail app will open
with the same message displayed, so you can
finish it off immediately. The system works for
all kinds of apps, but best of all it works both
ways. If youre working on your Mac and have
to leave, you can swipe up on your lock screen
and the same app you were using will open
on your iPhone. All you need to do to access
these features is log in with the same Apple ID
and youre good to go.

The on-screen keyboard is an important

feature of the iPhone, so set it up in

as Auto-Capitalization and predictive
text. If you want to add another keyboard
in a different style or language, you can
also do that here, as well as deleting
redundant ones.
Set up your device
1: Navigate the Settings menu
Consider the Settings menu as a one-stop shop for changing anything and
everything that goes into the running of the iPhone and its apps. It can be
accessed from the home screen and holds all of the possible options and
choices for all its native apps, plus any third-party ones youve downloaded.
Navigating the Settings menu is fairly straightforward as the apps and
groups of settings appear in a long list. A lot of the time you will see an
arrow pointing to the right; this leads to more choices, ready for you to
select. Similar native apps or groups of settings are sensibly clustered
together in various sections, to ease accessibility. So, for example:
connectivity (Wi-Fi, Airplane mode, Bluetooth), productivity (Notes,
Reminders, Maps, etc), entertainment and creativity (iTunes, Videos, Photos,
Game Center, etc), social networks (Twitter, Facebook, etc) and finally any
other third-party apps.
2: Switch Cellular Data on and off
3: Use gestures to speed things up
Your iPhone uses

Cellular Data to access
information when you
are out of range of a WI-Fi
connection. Sometimes,
you may want to switch
this off, perhaps to
conserve precious data or
to increase battery life. To
do this, tap Cellular in the
Settings menu. Slide the
green sliders for Cellular
Data and Enable 4G (or 3G
for earlier iPhone models)
to the left to turn all data off. To switch back on, just slide to the right.
Apples now famous

multitasking gesture
technology was one of the
first wow-factor selling points
to capture the imaginations,
not to mention the wallets,
of a generation. If you visit
the Settings menu and scroll
down to General, tucked
away in Accessibility is an
AssistiveTouch option. Tap on

5: Set up your iCloud
1: Travel to the cloud
6: Use the iPhones

connectivity options
2: Create an account
Apples iCloud
is a very
handy cloud
storage service
that lets you
access your
music, photos,
documents
and more from
any device,
anywhere.
Get started by
finding it in the
Settings menu,
about half way
down on
your screen.
3: Options and more options

On the main
iCloud menu
page, turn
on all of the
programs you
wish to back
up data for
in the Cloud.
Under Photos,
Documents
& Data and
Keychain, you
can make
further choices
to personalise
what exactly
gets synced.
5: Take control
Before using
iCloud storage,
you must
create an
account. Tap
Account and
input all of the
required info to
sign up. When
your account
is activated,
you can keep
an eye on your
iCloud usage
by selecting
the Storage &
Backup option.
There are two ways to do this. The long

way begins by launching Settings.
4: Back up
To
automatically
send
photos and
documents to
your iCloud
account rather
than backing
them up to
your computer,
simply turn
on the iCloud
Backup switch.
Hit OK when
prompted, and
your files will

6: Are you getting enough?

As an iCloud
user, its a
good idea to
regularly check
how much
storage each

is using to
avoid reaching
the limit
unexpectedly.
You can find all
of these handy
statistics in

8: Ensure your iPhone is speaking the right lingo

To operate your iPhone properly youll want
to make sure it is using the same language as
you. This might seem like an obvious point
to make, but while you might think youve
got it on the right setting because you can
read everything clearly and fully understand
what you are reading, you still might actually
have the wrong dialect selected. This can
sometimes impede your appreciation of
Siri, VoiceOver and many more apps. To find
the correct language and dialect, hunt for
Language & Region in the Settings General
menu. Tap any entry to see more options.
9: Get creative with wallpapers

A wallpaper is the background for the lock or
home screen. You can choose from a range
of options Apple has provided or you can also
use your own images. Travel to Wallpaper in
Settings. Your currently used wallpapers will
be shown here. After tapping on Choose a
New Wallpaper, select from Apples choice of
Dynamic (animated) or Stills and find an image
you like or select a picture you took from
one of your photo libraries. When you find
an image, tap it and choose from the options
whether it is to be your new lock or home
screen background.

to mention all their individual menu systems and settings
options here. That said, generally all of the apps on your
iPhone can be modified in a similar way. First, you need to
launch Settings from the home screen, then find the relevant
app by scrolling up and down the list. Once you select the
specific app, all the relevant options of functions you can
change or adjust to your preference will be listed here.
Some options will appear as standalone choices, usually
with an on or off switch, while others might be grouped
together in a set that acts as its own menu when tapped.

here you can ensure that a young child is only
able to play with age-appropriate apps.

accessible, you can affect music, films,
podcasts, Siri and even websites from this part
of the Settings menu.

14: Sounds of the iPhone
Sound is important on an iPhone and users have access to
every dimension of the way that sound is conveyed in the
Sounds area of the Settings menu. Here youll find a volume
slider that can be adjusted to control the sound level of every
ringer and alert, plus you can choose to adjust this with the
iPhones buttons. Another major option here is to assign tunes
to specific notifications or alerts. Last but not least, you can
decide whether or not to permit sounds to be emitted when
locking the iPhone or clicking on the keyboard.

ith all the hundreds of thousands

of fantastic apps that are available
for the iPhone, it is easy to forget
that the most important one on the device is
the Phone app. It is probably the most used
app on the device and it has a lot of great
features to make calling your family, friends
and other people as easy and convenient as
possible. For example, there are features like
Favorites, which enables you to create a list of
the people you call the most often. It is more

than a simple contact list though and you
can include their photo with their name and
where a contact has several phone numbers,
such as work and personal, you can choose
the one you want to add as a Favorite. The
Favorites list makes it easy to create, edit and
delete shortcuts to contacts, and of course, to
call them. One tap and the Phone app dials
the number automatically for you.
Although the Phone app in iOS 8 has

not changed a great deal from the previous
version, there are some new tweaks that make
it easier to call people, such as the photos

If you miss a call, the Phone app will notify
you and you can instantly see the number of

One feature we have not looked at in the

When talking to someone on the phone,
you might need to access an app, look up
contact information, create a reminder or
take notes. You can do this without having to
hang up and we look at the various tasks and
functions available within calls in our tutorials.
We explore some of the useful options in
the Phone apps settings, such as the ability
to block calls from annoying people. If you
choice, just go to Settings, Sounds, Ringtone

to select the tune youd like to use.
You can use an app every day and not
realise it has certain features and among
the tips and tutorials you might discover
features that you didnt know existed in the
Phone app. For example, the ability to paste
phone numbers into the keypad that you
have copied from somewhere else, such as
an email, website or document. You can find

iOS 8 has improved the multi-tasking

screen (for jumping from one app to
another). When the home button at the
bottom of the phone is double clicked,
not only can you browse the apps that
are open, you can also see your most
frequently contacted people. Images of
your friends and relatives can be browsed
at the top and tapping one enables you
to call them using the Phone app. This is
an alternative to opening the Phone app
and browsing Favorites or Contacts.

Master the Phone app

1: Customise caller ID and more
Consider the Settings menu as a one-stop shop for changing anything and
everything that goes into the running of the iPad and its apps. It can be
accessed from the home screen and holds all of the possible options and
choices for all its native apps, plus any third-party ones youve downloaded.
Navigating the Settings menu is fairly straightforward as the apps
and groups of settings appear on the left panel; when one of these
settings is selected, its options are shown on the right-hand side, which
can sometimes lead off to more choices, ready for you to select. Similar
native apps or groups of settings are sensibly clustered together in various
sections, to ease accessibility. So, for example: connectivity (Wi-Fi, Airplane
mode, Bluetooth), productivity (Notes, Reminders, Maps, etc), entertainment
and creativity (iTunes, Videos, Photos, Game Center, etc), social networks
(Twitter, Facebook, etc) and finally any other third-party apps.
2: Set your favourite contacts
3: View recent and missed calls
There are people that we

call more often than any
other, such as family and
friends. Instead of searching
through Contacts for these
people every time you want
to call them, they can be
added as Favorites. Tap the
Phone app, tap Favorites at
the bottom and then tap
the plus in the top right
corner. Browse your contacts,
select one and then tap the
number to add as a Favorite.
Tap a name to call a Favorite.
There are several

indicators that show
missed calls and they
are displayed in the
notifications (pull down
from the top), and also by
the badge on the Phone
app. When the Phone app
is opened, there is also
a badge on the Recents
button at the bottom. Tap
it and there are two tabs
at the top. You can view
all recent calls or just missed ones. Selecting All includes missed calls as well
as recent ones.

But the Clock app is so much more than an
unappreciated wake-up call, as you can set not
just one alarm but several ones that repeat
on chosen days, others that use different alarm
tunes and you can even add notes to remind
yourself what the alarm is for.

a timer or a stopwatch in your day to day life.
Whether youre training for a race or teaching your
kids to brush their teeth for two minutes.
The Clocks Stopwatch works as expected: hit
the Start button and the timer counts until you
tap Stop. The great feature here, though, is the
Lap button. Every time you complete a lap, hit this
button to record how long it took. It even shows
you the total accumulated running time.

first, and most obvious, is to change the
voice. Previously UK users had only one,

you can now specify whether you want a
male or a female voice. To change it, go to

you can make. For example, to change the
language in which you communicate with Siri,
tap on Language and choose a different one.
To change who Siri thinks you are, tap My Info
and choose a new contact. Siri doesnt always
get it right, of course.
When you ask a question, it will display what

it thinks you have said on screen. If its wrong,
you can correct it. Just tap the text to edit it.
Then delete and add new text, as required.

driving and dont want to be distracted by
using your iPhone, but it works just as well
if youre sitting at home with your iPhone
plugged into the wall.
But theres a lot more that Siri can do than
just talk to you. You can send tweets, as we
explain on the next page, but you can also
find out what a specific person is tweeting
story. Initially it will protest with Im sure youve

heard it before. Or It was a dark and stormy
night. No, not that one But if you persist,
it will indeed read you a charming bedtime
story about a personal assistant who got a
job at Apple. You can even get Siri to tell you
jokes, if you want (Fig 3.)
Siri is also useful for checking whats going
on in your world when you cant use your
One of the best things about Siri is the

human touches that have been added to it

display recent tweets by that person. Tap on
one to see it in Twitter. You can even search for
specific hashtags or see what is trending on
Twitter right now. In each case, Siri will display
the top trending topics and you can tap one
to see more information in the Twitter app.
One of the best things about Siri is the

may get the answer I find it odd that you
would ask this of an inanimate object. But our
favourite is asking Siri to read you a bedtime

emails and messages, and have them read

send messages and emails, initiate phone and
FaceTime calls, and even schedule events and
reminders using your voice.
Sometimes, if your request isnt specific
enough, Siri will ask you to clarify. You can
speak naturally to the virtual assistant without
having to adjust you voice.
Theres lots to explore in Siri and some time
spent giving it unusual requests and trying
to hold a conversation often yields fun and
surprising responses.

Siri has been integrated with Apples apps

to make it easy to, for instance, message
a contact or check the local weather. It
understands natural language, though
you might have to teach your voice by
speaking to it a few times.
It also hooks into third-party services
like Wikipedia and Wolfram Alpha a
search tool that focuses on knowledgebased responses. Some services only
work well in the US, while others, like
sport results, work well anywhere.

Get Siri to work for you

1: Post to social networks
You can use Siri to dictate a tweet or Facebook status update. Unfortunately,
however, it doesnt yet recognise Google+ or other less commonly used
networks. To tweet from Siri, hold down the Home button to activate it and
say post to Twitter. Youll see an empty box appear on screen, ready for you
to dictate your tweet. And Siri will say What would you like to say? Dictate
your message and tap OK. Alternatively, tap Cancel. If you have multiple
Twitter accounts registered on your iPhone, Siri doesnt allow you to choose
which one to post to, it just chooses the most recently used account.
The process is the same for posting a status update to Facebook. Hold
down the Home button until Siri pops up. Say post to Facebook and
dictate your status update. If you just say Facebook, Siri will open the
Facebook app instead and youll have to type your update in the normal
way. Just saying Twitter, however, pulls up the tweet box inside Siri.
2: Correct Siris pronunciation
3: Search for information
Tap and hold the Home

button, then say something
that causes Siri to say the
name you want to teach it.
Tap the microphone and say
thats not how I pronounce
[the name]. Siri will ask
how you pronounce it. Tap
the mic and say the name
again. Siri will give you three
options. Tap the play arrow
next to each to listen, then
tap Select next to the one
which is closest to the actual
pronunciation of the word.
Siri hooks into a variety

of information services
to allow it to provide
movie listings, directions
and information from
Wikipedia, as well as
regular web searches.
The first step is to hold
the Home button and
then tell Siri what youre
trying to find. Try to be
as precise as possible.
With some things, such as
sports results, Siri is excellent; with others, like UK cinema listings, its not as
good as the online databases it uses are mostly based in the US.

are ambiguous,
say its nearly
midnight and
you schedule

particularly if youre the kind of person whod
rather speak than type a message. You can
send a voice memo using Messages. Simple
tap and hold on the microphone icon next to
the message field and start speaking into the
microphone at the bottom of your iPhone.
Choose whether to start new conversations

from your Apple ID or phone number
it was sent, and a screenshot of the message.
To take a screenshot on the iPhone, press the
sleep/wake button and the power button
simultaneously. The screenshot is added to
your Camera Roll album in Photos. You need
to find it there and tap the share button (the
rectangle with an arrow pointing upwards),
then choose Mail.
The other action you can take is to block
the sender of the unwanted messages. To do
that, youll need to be running at least iOS 7.
In Messages, tap on the message from the
person you want to block, then tap Contact
and tap Info, under the Done button. Scroll
When youre finished, either swipe left to erase

the message and start again, or swipe up to
send it it really is as simple as that.
Its equally as simple to send a selfie or a
video using messages just tap and hold on
the camera icon on the left to open up the
camera. You can tap the camera icon to take
a photo and send it instantly, or swipe right
to start recording a video. When youre ready,
it will send automatically its fast, easy and
extremely intuitive.
Theres a great deal more that you can do
with Messages, and in the following pages
well show you how to get the most from it.

o activate FaceTime, open Settings and

tap FaceTime. Now slide the FaceTime
switch to the right to turn it on.
Incidentally, if you sit in front of a Mac for work
all day and you want to use that for FaceTime
calls, switching it off on the iPhone will stop
both the iPhone and Mac from ringing every
time you get a FaceTime call.
FaceTime can also be controlled from the
iPhones Restrictions settings. Go to Settings>
If you dont want any more calls from

this contact, go to their contact details
and tap Block this Caller
General>Restrictions. If Restrictions is turned

on, youll need to tap in your code to make
changes. If youre turning it on for the first
time, youll need to set a code. Once youve
done that, scroll down to FaceTime and slide
the switch to the left to switch it off (Fig 1).
Now, not only is FaceTime disabled, but the
app icon will disappear from the home screen.
Anyone who wants to turn it back on again
will need the passcode you set for Restrictions.
By default, the address you can be reached

via FaceTime is the email address you use
for your Apple ID, but you can add others. In
Settings>FaceTime, scroll down to You can be
reached by FaceTime at and tap Add Another
Email Type in the email address you want
to add and tap Return. It will then be added
to the list of your linked email addresses. If you
want to remove an address, tap the i next to it
then tap Remove this Email.

Fig 2: Change the ID displayed when you make a call
You can also change the contact details that

are displayed as your caller ID. Under Caller
ID in FaceTimes settings, tap the address you
want to use (Fig 1). With an iPhone, you can
also choose its phone number as the caller ID.
You can use your television to view a
FaceTime call, though youll still need the
camera on your iPhone for your end of the
call. Youll require an Apple TV box and this
and the person youre trying to contact have

the latest version of iOS installed. Secondly,
make sure the date and time are correct by
going to Settings> General>Date & Time and
ensuring Set Automatically is turned on.
If you arent receiving notifications when
someone tries to call you, go to Settings>

the iPhone screen to view Control Centre. Tap
AirPlay and then tap Apple TV. Everything on
your iPhone will now be mirrored on your
Apple TV. Make a FaceTime call and youll see
the person on the other end of the call on
your TV, and the sound will come from your
TV speakers. Be careful not to have the TV
volume too high, though, or it will be picked
up by the iPhones microphone and generate
some nasty feedback.
If youre having trouble making or receiving
calls, the first thing to do is to make sure you
FaceTime uses push notifications to alert you

to an incoming call.
If, after all that, youre still having problems,
double-check your device is connected to
your Wi-Fi network and that the network
is connected to the internet, and ask the
person youre trying to contact to do the
same. Verify that FaceTime is switched on in
Settings>FaceTime and that you have the
correct FaceTime email address for the person
youre trying to call.
If none of that resolves the problem, you
can try restarting your iPhone. That usually
sorts out any issues.

To block a contact who has just called
you, go to Recents in the FaceTime app

A good tip is to create a contact, then
add numbers and emails you want to

Get the best from FaceTime
1: Make and receive calls in FaceTime
You can make FaceTime calls to anyone with a supported iOS device; these
are iPhone 4 or later, iPad 2 or later, iPad mini, or iPod touch 4th generation
or later. If the person you want to call has an iPhone, you can use their
phone number to contact them using FaceTime, otherwise youll use the
email address they registered as their Apple ID. You can call when youre
connected to a Wi-Fi network or a 3G or 4G on a mobile network.
Tap the FaceTime app to launch it. On the right of the screen youll see a
list of your contacts; scroll through it to find the person you want to call, or
search for them by typing their name in the search bar. Tap their name and
youll see their contact card. Tap the camera icon next to the word FaceTime
to initiate the call. When they accept the call, FaceTime will make the

happening at your end, you
can mute the call by tapping
the button at the bottom of
the screen represented by an
icon of a microphone with
a line through it. To unmute
the call, just tap the same
button again.
The best way to silence the
call at your end is to hold the
volume button until the
sound goes off.
3: Monitor FaceTimes data usage

If you use a cellular
network to make
FaceTime calls from
your iPhone, monitoring
data usage is important.
To see how much data a
call used, tap the i
next to it in the recent
calls list. Under the name
of the other party in the

data it used. This can be useful for future reference.

ail is the default email application

on the iPhone, although there are
alternatives available in the App
Store. However, unless you have a specific
requirement, Mail is the only one youll need. It
supports accounts from all the main providers
of webmail, including Google, Yahoo! and
Microsoft, as well as Apples own iCloud email.
If you have your own domain, Mail supports
both POP and IMAP accounts. These are
Sometimes you need to see emails that

arent in the Inbox this area is where
you will find them
slightly more difficult to set up, because you

need the addresses of the incoming and
outgoing mail servers, but these should be
easily retrievable from your domain hosting
company and ISP.
Mails unified Inbox means that, by default,
all the email from all your accounts is displayed
together, but you can easily select a specific
account to see only the received mail from it.
Where its supported, Mail by default is set to
have new messages pushed to it from the

mail server. This means that it doesnt have to
go to the server and check for itself. Where
push isnt supported, in Gmail for example,
you can set it to Fetch and then specify
how often you want it to check for new mail.
Remember that the more often it checks, the
more bandwidth it uses this is a particular
consideration if you are using a 3G or 4G
cellular connection. Another consideration

Load Remote Images setting (Fig 1). HTML
emails are common, particularly those sent
for marketing purposes, and allowing Mail
to load remote images automatically means
that it will download them from the server
without asking for permission. Depending on
your data plan, that could cost you money.
Those settings and others relating to Mail,
work mail and another for personal messages,

you can have different notification settings for
each. To change settings, go to Settings and

Mail by default is set to have new messages

pushed to it from the mail server
such as how much of a message to display
as a preview and which account to set as the
default are found in the Settings app, under
Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
One other change you might want to make
is to the signature. By default, the signature in
Mail messages sent from your iPhone is Sent
from my iPhone. This is intended to explain
why messages may be brief. However, lots of
people dislike it, so it can be disabled.
There are a number of ways iOS can notify
you, via Notification Centre, of new messages.
These are set up on a per-account basis,
meaning that if you have one account for
the Mail icon, or can be as full-on as an audio

alert with a preview message displayed as an
alert on the lock screen. You can also specify
separate notifications for VIP addresses.
When you compose a new message, Mail
tries to predict the recipient using information
in Contacts and sent and received messages.
So, in order to make life as simple as possible,
you should keep Contacts up-to-date.
Finally, a word on the icons. The icon in the
middle changes from a trash can to an archive
box, depending on the account the message
has been sent to. The other icons do the same
thing regardless of the type of email account.

it the blanks: this will be invaluable for
medical experts
hen iOS 8 arrived, it brought with

it a brand new app called Health. It
intends to address a growing issue
surrounding the explosion of health-related
apps which have been made available in the
App Store over the past few years. As each
one of these gathers different kinds of data,
it has been difficult to gain an overall picture
of an individuals health. By acting as a health
hub and pulling information from the iPhones
motion sensors as well as third-party health

apps and devices, the new app aims to rapidly
build up a solid picture of your body.
This could prove to be very useful for
health and medical experts, allowing them
to see at-a-glance the levels of your day-today fitness as well as your nutrient levels and
(potentially) fluctuating weight. It could also
help to save your life: there is a medical card
which lets you input vital information such as
your blood type which could be invaluable in

an emergency.
Of course, the app will only be as good as
the data it receives so you have to put some
effort in; filling in the blanks and investing
in apps and devices (one purchase you may
consider is the compatible Apple Watch, for
instance). But it will be worth it, for Health is
one of those apps that, now it is here, makes
us wonder why it wasnt thought of years ago.

How Health monitors your wellbeing
1: Benefit from different apps being compatible
The Health app needs lots of input in order
to work to its full potential. To aid this, Apple
unveiled software called Healthkit which
allows third-party developers to produce
apps to work in tandem with it. Apps such
as MyFitnessPal and Carrot Fit, for example,
support integration. This means Health isnt
stepping on anyones toes and, with more
developers looking to produce wellbeing
apps, innovation will flourish. The benefit is
that users can choose the apps which best
suit them and have all of the information sent
to a central hub. Check out the apps seeking
permission by looking under Sources.
4: Input your essential

health data
1: Tap Health Data

Select a category, ranging from fitness
to nutrition and results.
2: Share data with other apps

You have full control over the
data you wish to share with
each health and fitness app. Tap
the Health Data tab, select one
of the categories, then select a
sub-category. For example, if you
want to control your Chloride
data, select Nutrition>Chloride.
Tap Share Data. A list of apps
requesting information will be
displayed and you can decide
whether to allow or disallow any or
all of them. You can also indicate
which data sources are allowed to
update this specific information
and put them into priority order.
2: Select sub-category
The data is broken down to micro-levels.
Choose from one of the sub-categories.
3: Add Data Point
3: Produce a medical ID card
You will see the data collated so far. To

input, select the option Add Data Point.
When you tap on the Medical ID tab of Health,

you can access your Medical ID card. This will be
initially blank, but filling in the card is simple. Tap
on the various fields and indicate your date of birth,
your medical conditions, medical notes, allergies
and reactions, medications, blood type and more.
You can find some of this information from your
doctor. You can also include a named contact who
should be called in an emergency. By having this
information on your phone in one handy place,
medical professionals may be able to treat you
more swiftly in case of an emergency. To allow
people to access it without knowing your iPhones
passcode, ensure Show When Locked is turned on.
4: Give the information

When inputting, note the measurement
method and tap Add.

iCloud Drive
iCloud Drive
Introducing iCloud Drive - store your files on your iPhone and access them on other devices
Directory service
Activating iCloud Drive
The new iCloud Drive includes a

directory service which allows certain
apps to look you up using your email
address, viewing your name and linking
to you. See which apps do this here
To use iCloud Drive, it must be turned

on. During set up, iOS 8 prompted you
to do this but check the green slider is
on at Settings>iCloud>iCloud Drive
Third-party apps
Many developers support iCloud Drive,
ensuring that customers upgrading to
Drive from iCloud can sync with app
versions available on both iDevices
and computers. Many more will come
on board

This page in Settings shows you a list of
apps which support iCloud Drive. You

Cloud-storage service
Sharing your files
iCloud Drive is a cloud-storage service

which intends to rival companies such
as Dropbox and Google Drive. You will
not find an iCloud Drive app available in
the App Store, though
Files created on an iOS 8 iPhone using

Apples suite of apps including iMovie,
GarageBand, Keynote, Pages and
Numbers will be instantly usable on a
Yosemite Mac or Windows 7/8/8.1 PC
lthough it has long been possible to

upload files from an iPhone to iCloud,
Apples decision to launch iCloud Drive
means its cloud-storage service has now
become a whole lot better. In offering crossapp editing and cross-device syncing, it is set
to become the perfect external drive for
iPhone users.
The service can be used to start a project
in one app on your iPhone and access it on
another, as long as the app you are using is

compatible with iCloud Drive (the number
of apps is growing). Each time you make
a change to a file, it will be automatically
saved, keeping everything nice and tidy and
improving your workflow. Apple has been
generous with its allowance: there is 5GB of
storage for free with low-cost plans after that.
If all of this sounds similar to rivals such as
Dropbox or Google Drive, then it is. But iCloud
Drive has an advantage thanks to its tight

integration into iOS 8. There are limitations,
of course. Your iPhone and iPad must run
iOS 8 and the service only works on Macs
running the Yosemite operating system and
Windows PCs with 7, 8 or 8.1. But software on
these computers allow files to be copied into
the iCloud Drive space and you can use it to
organise your files. There is no iCloud Drive app
to enable you to do this, though.
WorldMags.net
WorldMags.net
iCloud Drive
Improve workflow with iCloud Drive
1: Store different documents and data to the cloud
With iCloud Drive, you are able to save your
spreadsheets, PDFs, presentations, documents
and images to Apples online servers. The
iCloud Drive space will include files that you
have created on your iPhone (providing you
have turned iCloud Drive on and the app
supports the service). The space also includes
files that you have dragged in to the iCloud
Drive folder on a Mac or PC. If you want to
see exactly what is stored in your space, you
can go to Settings>iCloud>Storage>Manage
Storage. By clicking an apps name and
selecting Edit, you can delete any stored files
that you do not want to keep in your space.
4: Change your
storage amount
1: Check your storage

In Settings>iCloud>Storage, check total
storage and select Buy More Storage.
2: Share and use your files across different devices

Files contained within your cloud
storage space can be used by any
compatible app, not only on your
iPhone but your iPad, Mac and PC.
In the past, documents created in
one app were only accessible, by
and large, from within that app.
But with files now kept in general
storage space, you could easily, for
example, create a drawing on your
computer, save it to iCloud Drive
and work on it later on your iPhone
provided the iOS app supports
iCloud Drive. Each change is
automatically saved and you do
not need to make copies.
2: Upgrade iCloud Storage

You get 5GB of storage for free. Choose
the plan you want (from 20GB to 1TB).
3: Buy extra storage
3: Work on different devices
Tap Buy and sign in to the iTunes Store.

Payment is taken immediately.
For iCloud to work, all of your devices must be

up-to-date (iCloud Drive will not work on iOS 7, OS
X Mavericks or any pre-Windows 7 PC). But if you
start a project on one device, you will be able to
complete it on another. This is great if, for example,
you are putting a spreadsheet together and need
to make some amends while you are on the go. As
long as the spreadsheet is saved in iCloud Drive,
you can pull it up on your iPhone, make alterations,
and save it back. This works well with like-for-like
apps such as Numbers and by syncing in real-time,
you do not have to wait. You can flip between an
iPhone and a computer or an iPad in mere second
if you have to. It makes for a very fluid transition.
4: Purchase is complete
You now have more storage. You can
still change your plan at any time.

wish; simply tap to start typing.
The Notes app syncs your notes between
all your different Apple devices using either
iCloud or email services such as Gmail or

other people.
If youre looking to write longer prose, Notes

pples Maps solution has become

an integral part of the iOS operating
system. It has the ability to serve many
different purposes, but will likely be used most
often to quickly find a specific place, business
or location. The search process is simple and
you can use natural language to find what you
need, with matches appearing immediately.
Some results will include extra detail such
as contact information and even reviews
from people if it is a business or institution.

Photos may also be shown to give you more
information about a particular place and the
integration does not stop there.
The location data held within Maps is
utilised by many other parts of the iOS system
and, for example, when you tap an address
in a contact field, you will be taken straight to
that location within the Maps app. An address
shown in an email will be highlighted in blue
just like a hyperlink and tapping on it will

also bring up the Maps app for you to view
and then navigate to with one further tap.
The navigation feature is fully featured and
works very efficiently, with all of the options
you will need present. Whenever you choose
to navigate to a location, you will be given
three routes to choose from and you can
then decide if time or distance is the most
important to you. On top of this, the app will

also take account of current traffic conditions

and use them to calculate the journey time
very accurately.
There are three views present which
will each be useful for different tasks. The
standard view shows the traditional computergenerated map interface, which is ideal for
navigation and finding locations that are
some distance away. The satellite view offers
easy to understand. If you prefer traditional

methods, the location you are currently
viewing can be printed to share with others or
you can leap forward and immediately share
via email, Twitter and other popular services.
Busy locations are crystal-clear on the

a realistic presentation, which is perfect for
finding buildings or specific places that are
close to you, while the hybrid view merges
these two views together. Add to these the
ability to see 3D views alongside the clever
Flyover mode and you really can view any
part of the world in a manner which suits your
particular needs. Indeed, the Flyover feature is
so well implemented that you will feel as if you
are actually visiting the location.
Every part of the Maps display and
feature set is implemented with care and
understanding, and there is a consistency to
the way it all works that makes it exceptionally
navigation. Your iPhone can easily become a

useful car entertainment system with Maps at
the heart of all of your travelling. The more you
use the system, the more useful it will become
and dont forget that Apple continually
updates the location data and presentation
of the maps in the background so it will only
get better over time. You also have the option
to report any errors you find and can actively
help to make the service more accurate.
Potentially, you will use the Maps app every
single day for many tasks and it remains one
of the most important default services on any
iPhone. Its flexible and very useful.

You can use Maps in any way you like.

For example, if you are planning a short
journey that requires walking, get an
overview of the entire route on the
screen. Your location will move as you
do. You do not need to be confined to
the way Maps appears to work, but can
instead use different views and features
for different journeys, so remember that it
can work for you rather than you having
to understand exactly how every feature
works. Make Maps your own.
Maps
WorldMags.net
Navigate the world

1: Get complex directions instantly
Search for any location using the top search box and wait for Maps to find it.
You will now see a Directions option in the top left-hand corner. If you tap it,
a new box will appear with your current location populated in the Start box
and the location you just searched for in the End box. Choose either driving
or walking mode using the small icons at the top and then tap Route. The
quickest route will be displayed on a map in bold, but with two other routes
shown as well. Tap any of them to see the distance and projected time at
the top, but you should find that all three are roughly equivalent in both
areas. When you are happy with a particular route, tap the Start option in
the top right-hand corner and the screen will change to show the next
turnings in large boxes at the top. You will also receive audible notifications
and at any point you can tap the Overview option to jump back to the
original map. Tapping Resume will take you back to the directions.
2: Search for places and locations

The main search feature
within the Maps app is
designed to be as familiar as
possible. It works similarly to
searching for anything on
the web and all you need
to do is tap within the top
search box to get started.
The pop-up keyboard will
appear and you can now
start typing, at which point
results will start to be listed
below the search box. Tap
on any listing to jump to the
location you need.
3: Switch between map views

There are three standard
views in Maps. The
Standard view looks
like a digital map and is
ideal for finding roads or
directions, but if you tap
the i icon you can then
tap Hybrid to see the
same roads over a satellite
image of the location
you are viewing. Tapping
on the Satellite tab will
show the same view
but without roads over the top, which is the best option for viewing the
location realistically.
4: Locate your contacts and access all of their data within Maps
1: The importance of addresses
2: An accurate location appears
3: More contact information
Go to a contact with an address filled in and

tap it to immediately open Apple Maps.
The location for your contact will be displayed,

which you can tap to navigate to.
Tapping the i in the marker will show the

telephone number and more detail.

5: Fly over the world without leaving your chair
1: 3D is not quite Flyover mode
For most of
the locations
that you
search for, the
standard view
is available.
However, for
some locations
you will also
have the
option to
Show 3D Map
which will
change the
view. Tap on
this option to
activate.
3: Look for the Flyover icon

In some
locations,
when you
zoom in on
an area a
little you will
see a new
icon appear.
It looks like a
3D building
and signifies
that the area
highlighted
is in fact
supported by
Apple Maps
Flyover mode.
5: Quickly access amazing views

For some areas,
such as Perth
in Australia, the
level of detail
available is as
realistic as you
could possibly
hope for on a
mobile device.
Navigation is as
easy here as it
is elsewhere in
the app - move
your finger
over the screen
to navigate in
the area.
2: 3D is still very impressive

When you
zoom in on a
3D-enabled
area, you will
see lots of
extra detail and
be able to pick
out buildings
and even
cars. There
are far more
3D-enabled
areas than
Flyover
locations, so
it is a viable
alternative.
6: Check current
traffic conditions
1: Plan a route as normal

Once a route is planned, tap the i icon
and tap Show Traffic.
4: Capture some unusual detail

When in
Flyover mode,
zooming in
a long way
within any
part of the
supported area
will highlight
an incredibly
high level of
detail. It covers
many different
and varied
objects, and
displays them
as though you
are flying past.
6: Find major Flyover locations

Not all
locations
support this
feature, so
to see all of
the Flyover
locations
available in
Maps, go to
http://
flyovercities.
com, which
lists every city
and location
that supports
the feature. Get
exploring!

2: Visual traffic information

Zoom in and you will see traffic
problems presented by intensity.
3: Traffic is accounted for

Route timings will consider the traffic
situations throughout.
4: A clearer traffic view

a much clearer manner.

7: Find locations and
explore detail
1: Location information
Most public places will show contact
details when you tap the pin.
8: Share your location with a couple of taps

When viewing any location, you can share it
by tapping the share icon at the bottom of the
screen. Perhaps you are meeting friends at a
new venue or need details for a meeting. You
can share via a new message or email, or over
Twitter or Facebook. The link can be tapped
and will immediately open in the Maps app
when the receiver selects it, which makes the
entire process very efficient and natural even
on the first use. Remember to only share your
location with those you trust and to be careful
on social networks as this process will show a
location that you may frequent often.
9: Print a location in seconds without wires
2: Read customer reviews

If reviews have been written, they will
be shown in the middle tab.
It may seem unusual to want to print a map,

but there will be occasions when such a facility
proves to be useful. For relatives or friends
who do not use digital mapping, you can give
them a physical copy of an area and the result
will be just as readable as it is on the smaller
iPhone screen. With an area shown on the
screen, tap the sharing icon at the bottom
and then select Print. The iPhone will now
search for an AirPrint-enabled printer on your
wireless network and should immediately
print the map in perfect detail, ready for you to
manually share with others. A simple process.
10: Change Maps settings and report problems
3: Real-world photographs
Tapping on Photos will display
thumbnails of any available snaps.
4: Popular apps nearby

Popular apps used in the location you
are viewing can be displayed.
There are very few settings to change in Maps, but the

ones available are useful when you first start using it. Go to
Settings and tap the Maps option. At the top you will be able
to choose the navigation volume you prefer, but if you tend
to listen to music or podcasts while driving, it makes sense to
choose the No voice option. You can also choose between
miles and kilometres for distances and whether you prefer
driving or walking as the default navigation method. If you
are viewing a location and you can see an obvious error, tap
the i icon and then Report a Problem. You can now choose
a category and then add your own detailed text, if it is not
listed, in the My problem isnt listed section.
Choose if you prefer driving

been tailored to offer a rich and familiar
experience. The design is clean and you

features that you use every day. When you first
open the app, it does take a little getting used
to, but a quick look around should help you
to understand the layout in no time. You can

Facebook account from many other iPhone
apps. For example, you can share videos and
photos from within the Photos app and you
can also update contacts with their latest
Facebook profiles so that you have all of the
information you require all of the time.
Setting up your Facebook account in the
Settings app allows such wide-ranging access,
but the official Facebook app is needed to
leverage all of the features you normally use

such as places, friends and the all-important
News Feed. There is a lot of flexibility built
into the setup on an iPhone and this means
that you get to choose exactly how you want
to use it, but it is fair to say that the iPhone
Facebook experience is just as good as the
desktop one that you have likely used for a
very long time. It is the Facebook you know
and love, but it is now mobile.

Go to Settings and scroll down to find the
Facebook option. Tap it and then input your
username and password. It will validate and
you have now set up your account to work
in a number of iPhone apps besides just the
official offering. Indeed, once you install the
official Facebook app, it will also be aware of
your account after you have set it up and will
use it from the first opening without the need
for further input from yourself. You will also be
given the option of choosing whether to allow
notifications to come through on the iPhone.
Your choice will depend on how busy your
account is.
4: Add photos and

media to Facebook
1: Set up the video quality

First, go to Settings>Facebook>Settings
and turn the Upload HD option on.
2: Update your Facebook status from anywhere

Maybe you want to tell the
world about something that just
happened to you, or you want to
share a picture of your latest meal.
Whatever your reason, posting a
status is simple. To update a status
in Facebook, tap the Status field to
be presented with a new screen
that looks like a blank message. Tap
the To: field to choose who should
be able to see your status and then
add some more descriptive text
and choose an emoticon to bring
some personality to it. You can set
up a status in any way and update
as often as needed.
3: Sync contacts and calendars

Synchronising your Facebook contacts and
calendars is much easier than you may expect,
and on an iPhone you do not even have to
access the Facebook app to set it up. Launch
the Settings app and find the Facebook option.
Once selected, you will see a section which asks
you to allow apps to access your account. If you
enable each of these, you will now be able to
keep your contacts updated with their Facebook
profiles and also ensure that you do not miss any
shared events.
At any time, you can also tap the Update All
Contacts option to ensure that everything is kept
up to date. Its a subtle setup, but it works.

open Safari to see the bigger picture ideal for when you want to know more
experience and to see exactly what your

friends are up to. If you have already entered
your account details in Settings, it will be seen
by the app and you can even update all of
your contacts automatically with their Twitter
usernames. The app will let you share photos
that you have just taken and you can also
show your location in case you want others
to know where you are. Direct messages are
included, as are mentions, and notifications will
always appear in real-time when something

happens on Twitter that is directly related to
your account. The best advice is to set up your
account in Settings and to then use the Twitter
app for most other purposes, but you will
always have the option to share from within
Safari, Maps, Photos and other apps for added
efficiency when the time is right. The iPhone
and the Twitter app work together perfectly to
enhance your online presence.

1: Set up Twitter integration on an iPhone
To add a Twitter account to an iPhone, you will
need to open the main Settings app. Scroll
down until you find the social block, which
should show Twitter at the top. Tap on Twitter
and then select Add Account. In the next
screen, enter your Twitter account name and
password and then tap Sign In. You can also
create a new Twitter account on this screen,
but either way, the process is very simple and
quick to follow. There is nothing else to do and
once you have input your details, your Twitter
account will now be accessible throughout
your iPhone in multiple apps. It really could not
be easier to set up.
4: Update contacts to
include Twitter
1: Find the update option

In the Twitter section of Settings, tap the

2: Post tweets with media from almost every app

The popularity of Twitter means
its been embedded in many
other apps and browsers. You can
share content from many different
apps, simply by tapping the share
icon at the top or bottom of the
main screen. If an app youre using
supports sharing via Twitter, you
will see its familiar bird icon shown
in the panel that appears. Now tap
this icon and the content you are
viewing can be shared via your
Twitter account. You can also add
your own description to add some
personal context, or a hashtag to
contribute to a trending topic.
2: Automatic contact updates

The update process will complete
quickly for all of your contacts.
3: It is now ready to use
3: Tweet single photos
You will now see details of each

contacts username included.
You can share single photos with the share icon.

Open the Photos app and then scroll to find a
photo that you want to share. Now tap the share
icon and you will see options at the bottom and
photos at the top. If you select more than one
photo, the Twitter option will disappear, so make
sure you only choose one. Tap the Twitter icon,
add your text in the box that pops up and then
tap Post. Alternatively, when in the Twitter app, tap
the new post icon and then tap the small camera
icon. You will now be able to select any photo from
your library and add descriptive text, which follows
almost exactly the same process as the default
iPhone Settings profile. The choice is yours.

hese days photographers dont need

expensive cameras with complicated
lenses to take cracking captures: the
iPhone is just as well equipped, capable
and competent at claiming high-resolution,
well-exposed pictures.
The iPhone may not make it quite as easy to
take professional shots as its DSLR counterpart,
but the viewing screen is arguably more userfriendly and on top of that youll always have
your iPhone on you, so youll always have it

handy without having to lug around a chunky
camera everywhere you go.
As well as choosing between the shooting
modes of Photo, Video and Square, you can
use HDR to retrieve more details. You can even
tap on the part of the screen that you want to
be in focus and expose the shot for.
Finally, when youve bagged your captures,
all you need to do is make a few quick taps
and you can edit the saved images within

seconds of shooting them. If youre happy
with the result, why not post the resulting
frame instantly or share it via email with friends
and family? All in all, the process is light-years
faster than shooting with a standard digital
camera and uploading the files to a computer.
When you think of it like that, photographing
with anything else other than your iPhone just
doesnt make sense.

Open your photographers eye
1: Take picture-perfect shots
The most important thing you need to take
strong images is good light. Position your
subject or shoot your scene so that the light
falls onto them, but consider shooting in the
shade if the sun is particularly strong. Open
the Camera app and use the Photo shooting
mode. When you decide where you want to
focus, tap and hold on that part of the screen
until the yellow rectangle shows up and
flashes. AE/AF lock will appear when it has
metered and exposed the scene to suit the
focal area. To zoom in closer, pull two fingers
apart on the screen; to zoom out again, use
the pinch gesture.

HDR draws the details from the dark and
light areas of your scene.
2: Explore other shooting modes: square or video

With your subject ready, hit the HDR Off
button so it becomes HDR On.
To shoot a movie, swipe down from Photo

to Video in one slow stroke. When the mode
has changed, line up the first shot of your film
and tap the red square record button. The
app will show you the duration of the footage

shot. If youd rather capture square instead of
rectangular photographs, swipe in an upwards
direction to reach Square mode.
3: Get selfie shots with the iPhones front camera

Were living in the age of the selfie,
where anyone with a cameraequipped tablet or phone can
take pictures of themselves and
beam them all over the world.
The dramatic rise of the selfie was
partly thanks to the invention of the
front-facing camera. To take a super
selfie, position yourself in good but
diffused light (not too harsh) and
consider the backdrop behind you. Select the front-facing camera,
opt for Photo or Square mode and, with your arms stretched out
in front of you, frame your shot to include yourself, and anyone or
anything else you wish to include, before taking the snap.

Create an iCloud Library
5: Keep your images forever with you
Since the release of iOS 8, the iCloud has evolved and expanded to become
a formidable beast for handling all of your cloud storage needs. With your
new iCloud Drive you have greater freedom to store and retrieve files and,
working in conjunction with your Photos app, all of the images you take
can be uploaded straight to the cloud and made available to you from any
device or computer. Start off by visiting the iCloud section in Settings and
upgrading your standard iCloud service to iCloud Drive (its free and quick)
and then go to the Photos & Camera settings.
Now use the switch to enable the iCloud Photo Library and all of the
images you take will be automatically uploaded to iCloud and made
accessible on all of your devices. This is especially handy if you want to
present your days adventures as a slideshow to other people through Apple
TV on the big screen.
6: Take a Time-Lapse video

One of the coolest new

features of iOS 8 is TimeLapse mode (selectable by

through the various camera
modes). Tapping the shutter

mode will capture photos at
dynamically selected intervals
and weave them together
in a video that shows an
accelerated sequence of

As you would imagine, its
great fun to play with.

iOS 8 helps eradicate this
problem. Tap the timer

of three or ten seconds.
Now, when you tap
the shutter button, a
countdown timer will begin, giving you enough time to line up the shot
and get in on the action yourself before it clicks.

to collect your captures with pride.
The problem with not using an app like
Photos is that all your digital files are just swept
into one place or folder on your hard-drive,
withering away, possibly never seeing the light
of day again. So instead of cluttering up the
computer with these abandoned pictures, find

a better way of storing and sorting your snaps.
One way to do this is dump the jumbled mess
of folders you used to sort all your photos
into and jump on board with Apples Photos
app for instantaneously categorised albums
perfect for viewing, editing and sharing all
within one tremendous iPhone app.
Photos is undeniably one of the strongest

Whilst organising your images into sensible
sections is undoubtedly helpful, its not exactly
exciting. Have no fear however, as the app
offers plenty of scope for fun. First of all you
can edit your captures. All you need to do
is discover the apps purpose-built palette
of editing options, which can dramatically
improve the shot all with the simple touch of
your finger. Options such as Crop, Filters and

from mundane to masterpieces in seconds.
Elsewhere, edit options Rotate and Red-Eye

youre a social network fanatic you can upload

Furthermore, youll be able to add images
to contacts, print images out or use files as
personalised wallpapers.

shots, make dramatic edits to improve your

your beautiful captures with others. The only

Contact images
Assign images to contacts

One of the great things about the iPhone
is that the name of your friend or family
member appears on the screen when
they call you. Whats even better than
seeing their name, though, is seeing
their face. Using Photos we can assign
a particular image to a specific contact.
First youll need to find an image and hit
Share. From the list of share options pick
the Assign to Contact icon and select
the contact, move and scale the image to
fit the frame, then hit Choose.
How to organise your photos
1: View your collections of photos
The app Photos groups your photos intelligently using the information
in the image files themselves youll find them sorted into Moments,
Collections and Years. These smart groupings gather together photos and
videos based on the time and location of where they were taken. Photos
can be divided into the Years they were shot. Each year carries Collections:
groups of photos shot at a similar time or place, such as a holiday. Within
these Collections are Moments that show individual or several of the photos
from that occasion, again which were taken at a specific time or place so,
for example, a day at the beach on the holiday in question.
This is an incredibly useful sorting system, as you can skim through the
thumbnails at a glance. Plus, thanks to all this information, you can use the
Search function to quickly find photos taken at a certain time, or in a specific
location in the world, just by typing a few letters.
2: Create a new album
3: Add editing extensions

In iOS 8 you can use the
editing tools from certain
third-party apps to change
the look of your images in
the Photos app. For example,
if you have the Camera+ app
on your iPhone, you can use
its tools without having to
open the app itself. Find a
photo you want to change,
tap Edit in the top-right, then
tap the Elipsis at the bottom
of the screen. Tap More and
switch the apps you want to
the On position.
Creating a new album is

very easy. Simply navigate
into a collection, moment,
year or existing album
and choose Select from
the top right. Tap on the
photos that you want to
group together into a
new album. Follow this
with Add to, then select
the album to which you
want to add these shots.
Alternatively, opt for New
Album at the bottom of the list on screen and then give the new album an
appropriate name to add your photos to it instantly.

drama is to crop an image. Not only will cropping help to cut
away any distracting or wasted elements in the background,
but bringing up the thirds grid will help you to create a
stronger composition. The rule of thirds dictates that you
should place areas of interest or focal points along the grid
lines or four intersecting points. This will help to give your
shot a more dynamic focus and make for a stronger photo. To
do this, pick an image and tap Edit, then choose Crop from
the options. Drag the sides of the frame to crop your image
and move the grid to achieve a stronger composition.

1: Create a new Game Center profile
It really could not be easier to create a Game Center profile on an iPhone,
because your Apple ID is used as the main identifier. All you need to do
is go to Settings and look for the Game Center option in the left-hand
column. Tap it and you can then tap the top option, which will ask you to
enter your Apple ID email address and password. That is in effect all you
have to do to create a new Game Center profile. You can also attempt to
create multiple profiles for different devices by signing out of Game Center,
using a new email address and signing in as normal. This should still allow
you to use your main Apple ID for purchases, but will keep the gaming side
separate. You should be aware that this last method is not guaranteed to
work because the official setup from Apple is that only the Apple ID should

A game will need to support
the Game Center service to
work with it and if it does,
you will be greeted with a
banner as soon as you open
it. At this point, any progress

ou could start Pages and begin writing

immediately: its a word processor thats
got the Apple mix of being extremely
powerful yet easy to get the hang of, so its
very user-friendly.
This is a full word processor on an iPhone:
you could well use it for writing notes or
shopping lists, but you can write letters,
reports, scripts and entire novels right on the
iPhone thanks to Pages. The app feels speedy
Useful settings
This icon holds handy settings, such
as word count, spell check and control
over document guides
partly because you never have to stop to learn

something or fathom out a feature. There is
plenty you can learn, theres much that you
can find out that will make writing in Pages
even better and improve your documents,
but you arent forced to figure it out before
you can do anything. Pages is for getting on
with your writing, yet right at your fingertips
there are features to speed up your writing, to
make your documents look more professional
and then to help you get your work out to

people. Pages documents have style. Literally.
You could write a gigantic book and go
through saying this line should be a bigger
font or a different colour, or you can tell Pages
that this line is a heading (Fig 1).
Headings have their own built-in styles
that Pages automatically applies. But if you
dont like their look, you can alter the style
and every heading that occurs in your book

The writing process is speeded up by the
way in which most tools you need are right in
front of you ready for use: above the keyboard
are buttons for changing the font and size,
inserting a tab and more. The things you

can write anything and send it to anyone. If
they need to work in Microsoft Word, you can
just send the document straight to them from
Pages in Word format. If you want them to
read but not necessarily work on it, send it to
them straight from Pages in PDF format.

This word processor has the Apple mix of

everything else is out of your way ready for
you to use yet not getting between you and
your writing.
When you want to include photos, for
instance, Pages for iPhone takes only a couple
of taps to get the image in. Then positioning
it just so, making it just the right size, thats a
slide and a pinch of your fingers. Its intuitive
and quick, and theres less fiddling with
different layouts.
When youre working with other people,
Pages helps you collaborate. There are a few
steps to sharing your documents and there
back to you, Pages can show you every

addition, every deletion, every tiny change
theyve made (Fig 2). You see the changes and
you can decide whether to keep them or not,
and keep track of how much progress your
colleague has made. That works even if you
are using Pages and they are on Word there
are details you need to watch out for, but it all
works together well.
These are professional-level features, and
yet theyre so readily available to you in
Pages that youll find yourself using them all,
whatever type of writing you do. Youll soon
find yourself using Pages without a hitch.

Write and share documents

1: Create a new document from scratch
When you open Pages, you see a grid of large icons representing all of your
documents or the examples Apple provides. Theyre intentionally that large
because they show you the contents of the document. But right at the top of
the grid there is one large, white icon with nothing but a + sign in it and the
words Create Document underneath. Tap on that.
Pages presents you with many choices for creating particular types of
documents, but the first is the one youll use most often as it gives you the
most flexibility. On the top row, theres a Blank document; tap on that. When
youre in a hurry, when you just need to make a quick start on something
or you know youll forget that thought youre trying to capture, tapping on
Blank document is a great solution.
Youll get very used to this: open Pages, tap on the + sign, tap on Blank
document, start writing immediately.
3: Find and replace text
2: Use a preset template
In any document, choose the

Tools icon its the spanner
icon and then tap on the
word Find. You get a bar at
the foot of your document
with space to type in what
youre searching for (and, if
you need, what to replace
it with). Every matching
word in your document gets
highlighted and you can tap
through each using the <
and > buttons. To finish, tap
anywhere in the middle of
the screen.
Now that you know how

to start a completely
blank new piece of
writing, take a look at
Apples suggested types
of documents. To get
back to the grid, tap on
the word Documents at
the top-left of your blank
document. Then tap the
+ sign and now scroll
down. You will see many
options for stylish letters,
reports with graphics, CVs (which Pages calls Resums), envelopes, flyers,
posters and more.
4: Save in Word format
1: Share with yourself
2: Choose how to send it
3: Choose Word format
You can email the document to yourself as a

Word file. Choose Share, then Send a Copy.
The easiest is to send it as an email: then you

can save or forward it as you need.
Once you tap on Word, Pages creates a

document in that format.

Everything you
write from now

3: Choose font, colour, layout

Tap on the

Right next to the space bar on your iPhones
on-screen keyboard is a microphone icon. Tap
that and start talking. When youre finished, tap
the word Done and Pages will type out the
words you spoke. It works spookily well, but
take it in short bursts o a sentence or two at a
time. Siri wont take a lot of dictation at once; in
addition, you cant see what it types until it has
finished listening to your words. So you need
to keep checking that its getting them right. It
also helps to be in a fairly quiet place and near
your iPhones microphone on the edge, by
the front camera.
9: Use iCloud
Every document you write in Pages is kept in
iCloud. You dont really have a choice about
it and usually you wouldnt want to because
iCloud gives you two big benefits. The first is
that you can just start writing you dont have
to think about where your document is saved.
You dont even have to save it, since that just
happens as you go. But the second benefit
is superb: without doing anything special,
you can leave your Pages document on your
iPhone and open it on Pages on your iPad,
Mac or on a PC through icloud.com. Open
anywhere and carry on writing.
2: Pick your photo

Choose Camera Roll, then tap on a
photo to add it.

then drag where you want
4: Add charts and graphs

Choose +, then tap the bar chart icon.
Select a chart type, then Edit Data.
Sometimes youll want to give someone a paper copy of

your document, or print it out to help with the editing and
proofreading. You can always email a Pages document to
your or someone elses computer and print it out from there.
But if you have an AirPrint-compatible printer, you can just do
it directly from your iPhone and straight from within Pages.
Go into the document, choose the Tools spanner and tap
on Print. If this is the first time youve done it or youre going
to a new printer, choose Select Printer. If there is an AirPrintcompatible printer near you and switched on, Pages will find
it. AirPrint works over Wi-Fi, so your iPhone and the AirPrintcompatible printer must be on the same Wi-Fi network.

Spinning charts
You have the choice to enter numbers

Figures can all be visualised in colourful

ways and you can drag the chart to

umbers is another example of Apples

aim of keeping things simple, not
necessarily by leaving out features but
by understanding what you actually need. Its
a powerful spreadsheet application that lets
you simply record any figures you want, from
tracking household bills to budgeting for a big
expense and running an even bigger business.
Once youve got those figures in, Numbers
is also strong on helping you analyse them
deeply. You can step back to get a big picture

view of your finances or dig into every detail of
your wedding costs. If youre more of a visual
thinker, Numbers will quickly build a chart
diagram to illustrate all of the facts that you
need to make decisions on. Then it will let you
touch that chart and physically move it around
under your figures so that you can examine
elements in as much detail as you need.
Overall, the Numbers app is easy enough for
any of us to start using right away and yet

its powerful enough for most of us to do
everything we need.
For years, Apples Numbers was the
Microsoft Excel of spreadsheets on the iPhone:
it was a well-designed and a well-liked app
but arguably its greatest appeal was that it was
the choice everybody made; it was effectively
the only practical option. There were certainly
alternatives out there, but for most people

Fig 3: Sharing your work with others is simple and is supported by various apps
Fig 4: Making a professional document takes no time at all with the pre-made templates
Numbers was naturally the default option

because it is so good. But now it really stands
on its own merits.
Like Pages and Keynote, Numbers has many
options for sharing your work. Some of them
require more effort or have possible pitfalls,
but they mean you can integrate Numbers
with your companys other spreadsheets.
and then show you the average takings. Its

how you can keep building up data and know
that all the running totals are automatically
updating themselves for you.
The latest version of Numbers now has
more features than ever before, but the
progress to here has been rocky. If youve
used recent versions of Numbers, you might
Easy enough for us to start with, powerful

enough for most of us to do all we need
If you are a die-hard Excel expert, youll
find that Numbers works differently: it has
myriad options but few buttons, so you are
directly touching and manipulating the cells
in your sheet instead of constantly reaching
for menus. Tapping on a single cell brings up
a keyboard that by default just lets you enter
basic numbers (Fig1). It then has options for
changing that to enter times and dates (Fig2),
or to a text keyboard or one especially for
enteringformulas.
Formulas are what makes a spreadsheet
worth having: its the way that you can tell
it to add up every months total sales figures
even have been put off installing it because

Apple purposely went through a process
of simplifying it. But the result now is that
a Numbers document you create on your
iPhone will certainly open on a Mac or on a PC
via icloud.com. And vice versa.
Thats a reason to return to Numbers for
iPhone if youve left it before and it is a great
convenience being able to add and edit
Numbers data wherever you go. And because
your iPhone backs up to iCloud, your data is
safe too. Just remember to put a passcode on
your iPhone before you go leaving it around
with all your financial details on it.

Lock your sheet

Protect your data
Numbers is so good for capturing

financial details and the iPhone is so
handy that you take it everywhere.
So password-protect your
importantspreadsheets.
Choose the Tools spanner icon and
select Set Password. Enter a strong
password and tap Done. Every time you
or anyone tries to open the spreadsheet
on your iPhone, it will ask for the
password first.
Explore Numbers and start working
1: Create a spreadsheet
Numbers always opens where you last left it. So if youre deep into a
spreadsheet, thats where you will be when you start next time. But the first
time you use it, you see a grid of icons representing your spreadsheets or folders
with more sheets in. By default its all arranged by when you last used a sheet:
those go at the top.
Without fail, though, the very top icon is just a + sign with the title Create
Spreadsheet. Tap on that and Numbers will show you a series of Appledesigned templates for typical types of spreadsheet documents. The one you
will most often use is the very first one: a simple spreadsheet called Blank.
There is another way to do this: in the grid view, you can tap the + sign to get
the option to create a spreadsheet. The latest version of Numbers also includes
options to open sheets via iTunes or a web server. However, for creating yourself
a new sheet, it is exactly the same process and saves you no time at all.
2: Use a preset template
3: Create charts
Apple provides templates predefined models for the

Numbers app, just as it does for Pages and Keynote. But these
templates are far more important with Numbers because
they dont just give you professional-looking designs. Instead,
they come with formulas baked in ready for you to use. So the
Personal Budget template, for instance, has a chart that alters as
you enter new figures.
Tap on a cell and

drag one of the blue
handles over a range.
Tap the Create Chart
option that appears
and currently you get
22 different options for
charts. With a variety
of colour designs, its
really a choice of 132
visual ways to display
your data. That includes
interactive charts: one
image but with a slider showing you changes over time, like how sales go
up and down through a year.
4: Get to grips with cells
1: Entering numbers
2: Add dates, times and text
3: What cells were born for
Tap on a cell and you can enter currency signs,

ticks, stars or maybe even numbers.
Choose the clock or T when youre entering

data you dont want treated as a number.
Formulas. The real power and pleasure of

Numbers is in this formula keyboard.
WorldMags.net
5: Work with functions and formulas
6: Make sliders and

steppers help you
1: Set some limits

1: The most basic formula
2: Quick addition
Type 78 + 9. Whenever you tap on this cell,

you will now see the formula =78+9, but the
moment you press the green tick, the cell
displays the result 87 instead.
Tap the SUM button and Numbers adds up

every cell above the current one. Numbers lists
what its added and you can drag the highlight
to include or exclude any cells.
Set number limits for a cell by choosing

the paintbrush and tapping Format.
2: Define those limits

Find Slider and tap i. Enter the min and
max possible values for the cell.
3: The power of functions
4: Which function to pick
The Functions button includes 250 more

features like Sum. Choose the function, such
as Average, and then select cells you want by
tapping and dragging handles.
Each of the 250 functions comes with a detail

page: tap the i next to it and you get a quick
definition, but then also very specific notes and
examples on how to use it.
3: Use your new slider

Now when you tap on a cell, you get a
slider to adjust the numbers.
5: Copy part of a formula
6: When it goes wrong
Rather than build up each cells formulas with

the functions, tap on a cell to copy from it. Tap
at the end of the formula and handles appear
so you can select parts.
If you make a mistake in your formula and ask

Numbers to do something impossible, it warns
you with a red triangle in the cell. Tap on the
cell to get an explanation.

4: Use a stepper instead

Choose stepper instead of slider and
you get up and down arrows.
Use advanced features
7: Style a table for
easier reading
1: Add a table with style
8: Use the keyboard with tables

The Numbers app intelligently picks the right
keyboard for you: if you tap on a cell that just
has text in it, you see the ordinary Qwerty
keyboard. Usually you will get the keyboard
you want, but at the start or when you want to
change a cell, you have to tell Numbers which
one to show you. When youve got a text,
time or number keyboard, its easy: just tap
on one of the four round buttons above the
keyboard. However, these buttons disappear
in the formula keyboard. Instead, you get one
green button. Tap on that to see the four
keyboard buttons.
Styled tables with colour columns make

reading figures easier.
9: Export an Excel file

You may never need to send your Numbers
spreadsheet to anyone. But if you do, theres
a fair chance they will be an Excel user and
wont be able to open your sheet unless you
help them. Fortunately, helping them is as easy
as emailing them the sheet and just telling
Numbers to send it as an Excel spreadsheet.
In the Numbers spreadsheet, tap the share
button, choose Mail and then when it asks,
pick to send it in Excel format. It takes a little
longer for Numbers to make that Excel sheet,
but then it puts it into an email ready for you
to address and send.
2: Move and resize table

Resize with the handles and move by
dragging on the O at top left.
10: Use with iCloud

3: Fine-tune the table
Tap on the bar above a column and
then Format to get options.
4: Handle large tables

Select a column, then tap Format>
Headers to keep (freeze) it on screen.
Every Numbers spreadsheet you ever make will

remain in iCloud. There might be advantages
to saving Numbers sheets to, say, Dropbox
for sharing with colleagues but it isnt worth
the effort. Apple protects your security and
tries to save your sanity by keeping Numbers
documents in the same one place all the time.
Just go with it and youll find you can open
your spreadsheets on the iPhone, on iPads,

on Macs and via icloud.com on PCs too. The
easiest way to share a sheet with a colleague is
to email it to them, but that does mean youve
now both got a copy. You can instead send
them an iCloud link: when they use it, they are
opening your sheet and working on it directly
so you always have just one version.

either for them to watch or for you to set up.
The work you do in Keynote is intended
to be seen by others. That typically means
getting it from your iPhone onto a projected
screen, so there are more issues around
sharing your work. But there are also more
solutions and Keynote makes particularly good
use of iCloud so that you can create, edit and

show presentations using iPhone, iPad, Mac
and even PCs via icloud.com.
There are issues about going between
different devices and there are recommended
ways to do it. You can also collaborate on
presentations and you are able to create one
large presentation that colleagues can tailor
to their needs by hiding some slides and
addingothers.

Fig 1: You can make any text, object or picture become a link to a website or send emails
Fig 2: The guideline appears as you move elements together: these two are now perfectly aligned
Fig 3: You can change the way an image appears in your presentation to several styles
Fig 4: Animation can add motion to an image and make your presentation more dynamic
For the audience, Keynote is a clear and

very good-looking system that you can use
to make effective, clear, compelling points.
Youve seen presentations where it all stops
and youre looking at the application instead
of the slideshow. The only thing worse is when
Windows puts up a message about updating
software or a failed internet connection in the
instead of how youre telling it and that is

where Keynote shines for audiences.
But its for you that it really glows: creating
and editing presentations is quick and also
genuinely fun. You can try out ideas and
change them, using your fingers to move
elements around a slide as you look for the
best balance of information and clarity.
Keynote was developed for Steve Jobs to

use its how he first introduced the iPad
middle of your talk. Keynote is more robust
than PowerPoint and especially so when
youve added in lots of videos and photos.
Keynote also lets you include links to the
internet (Fig 1): tell your audience something
about a website and you can go straight to it
to make a point, then come right back to the
presentation to continue.
It all makes for a smooth presentation.
Maybe you dont always want to come across
as a slick sales person, but you have peoples
attention for a short time and they deserve
your spending it well. They deserve to be able
to concentrate on what youre telling them
Guidelines appear as you move an item like

a picture (Fig 2). They appear only when you
need them for precision placing. Keynote will
automatically align your text and itll change
the size as you add more words.
It lets you build up slides point by point, lets
you take the audience through your thinking.
Talk about how things are today with very
simple, clear, precise text and then introduce
your new plan for the future with a swish.
Keynote is one of those applications that
you intend to just use to get the job done. Yet
before you know it, you realise that you have
become seriously hooked on Keynote.

Projecting iPhone
How and when to do it
You can present straight from Keynote on
your iPhone to projection screens. If there
is a projector, its most likely to use VGA
and you can buy an iPhone Lightning-toVGA adaptor for 40 from Apple. HDMI is
becoming common, though, and there is
also a 40 Lightning-to-HDMI adaptor.
If you also have an iPad, its possible to
link the iPad to the VGA or HDMI and
then use your iPhone as a remote to
operate the presentation and allow you
to move freely. You can also display your
presentation using Apple TV if you have
access to this.
Build a presentation
1: Create a presentation from scratch
With most applications, like Pages and Numbers, its handy to pick a pre-made
template to start you off with. But for those presentations that demand getting
words and figures in, so you might most often start with a blank document and
worry about how it looks later. With Keynote, though, you really need to start
with a template. Its how your audience will see your presentation: it is the look
of every slide. So its important, but it also means youre stuck with whatever you
pick. There are ways to work around that and edit the presentation to your liking,
but they take a lot of effort youre really copying every element to a brand new
presentation so spend some time now. Choose Create Presentation and try
out a couple of templates: its hard to tell from the thumbnails whether youll like
them. There are 30 standard ones and then the same 30 redesigned for a wider
screen. Unless you know what equipment youll be presenting from, stick with
the standard set because they will work with all screens and projectors.
2: Copy text into Keynote
3: Import images and movies
To write some text, tap the bottom-left + button to add a slide

and then pick one that has text boxes in it. Double-tap to edit
and start typing. However, note that when you want to paste
in text from somewhere else, it goes in complete with the
formatting from wherever you copied it. So type a word or two
first. Then highlight that and when you choose Paste, the new
text will keep the right style.
If you have photos

or videos on your
iPhone, you can add
them directly into your
presentation. In a slide,
press the top + button
and then the icon for
media. This shows a
list of your iPhones
Photos albums and
your Videos collection.
Not everything will
be available, though:
movies youve bought from the iTunes Store wont appear on the list
because you wont have the rights to use them.
4: Insert charts and spaces
1: Choose a type of chart
2: Position and resize the chart
3: Get figures into the chart
Tap + and the bar chart icon to access charts

in 2D, 3D and also interactive one.
You can drag the chart around, resize with the

handles or rotate its perspective.
Tap the chart, pick Edit Data and get a

Numbers-like spreadsheet to work on.

2: Resizing elements
Press and hold in the middle of any item and

you can simply push it to wherever you want.
Keep text to the centre to be sure it will appear
on all screens.
For graphics, tap and then drag the blue

handles until the item is the size you want. You
can resize text boxes horizontally and vertically,
but you have to edit text to fit.
For text and images, not charts. Tap,

then choose the Tools icon.
2: Make it a link
Choose Presentation Tools, then
Interactive Links.
3: Select multiple objects
4: Match object sizes
Take advantage of the fact that iPhones have

multi-touch screens: use two or more fingers
to tap on every object you want to select. You
then get options including Group.
Tap on an object and start dragging. As you

do so, tap another finger on what you want to
match. The words Match Size appear and you
can let go: Keynote will resize them.
3: Enter the link

Tap on Webpage in the Link box, then
type or paste a website address.
5: Rotate images
6: Precision moves
This only works for photos and images. Tap in

the centre with two fingers and slowly twist.
The image rotates and a display shows by how
many degrees its turned.
Hold the image with one finger and swipe

with another. The image will move one pixel
at a time. Swipe with two fingers and itll move
by ten pixels.

4: Editing the link

Repeat the steps for adding a link and
then you can change it.
Take your slides further
7: Create animations
for that wow factor
1: Pick your object
8: Duplicate slides
Youre using an existing template but after
a while, youve ended up making a lot
of changes to it. Perhaps youve added a
company logo to the top right of your slide.
Rather than keep adding that to every slide,
you can duplicate an existing one. It saves
effort but it also helps you keep headings
and other regular items staying in exactly the
same position between slides. Otherwise
even the tiniest of differences becomes a
distinct wobble when you transition slides. To
duplicate a slide, press on it and hold, choose
Copy, then Paste.
Tap on the image, text or chart and

choose Animate.
9: Insert transitions between slides

For every slide, there is a transition. It can be a
simple case of one slide immediately followed
by another. No trickery, no fuss. Or you can
have trickery and fuss, as much as you like.
Make the next slide shove the current one out
of the way. Have it spiral open, sparkle in, do a
swap, anything. In practice, its far too easy to
go mad with these effects, but you have to try
them to see what they can do. Tap and hold
on a slide, choose Transition, then tap the play
button to demo them. Just promise youll use
them sparingly in real presentations; you dont
want to give your colleagues a migraine.
2: Build in
Choose how the object should first
appear: tap on Build In.
10: Share your presentation

3: Select animation type
For now, choose Blur. Then tap back on
the image.
4: Build Out
Choose Blur. Now press the play button
(top right of screen) for a demo.
Its vital to be able to share your work in

Keynote. As in Pages and numbers, you may
well be circulating work to colleagues, sending
them draft versions. But the final step will
always be presenting to an audience and
you may well have to share the presentation
in order to do that. Some firms want you
to provide a printed copy, but all will have
different projection equipment. If you can plug

your iPad in directly, great. If not, youre using
their equipment and its probably a PC. If that
PC is online, you can go to icloud.com and run
Keynote from there. But most often you will
need to email the presentation over and theyll
want it in PowerPoint format. Youll have to
twiddle when theyve got it, but itll work well.

Creating your first track
1: Create a song
The beauty of GarageBand is its simplicity, and as such you can dive straight in
and start creating music instantly. To get started, select an instrument by swiping
left or right on the Instruments screen. Included are keyboards, drum set-ups,
audio recorder (mic), sampler, an amp (so that you can plug in and play your own
instruments) and various Smart instruments which well talk more about later.
With your instrument selected, the interface will change to reflect the
instrument and the various features available to it. Tap or strum the screen to play
the instrument and then once you have perfected how it should sound, tap the
red record button at the top of the screen. To assist you in the recording process,
tap the settings icon in the top-right corner and choose the Song tab, then move
the sliders to activate the Metronome and Count-In features these will assist
you in getting the timing right. When you have finished recording, tap on the
icon to the left of the playback controls to go to Tracks view where you can edit.
2: Start experimenting with loops
3: Change your instrument
To add some depth and substance to your tracks try

experimenting with loops. Its a great way to apply some
professional sheen to your songs. While in Track view, tap on the
loop icon in the top-right corner of the screen. From the menu
youll see a wide range of loops applicable to any instrument.
When you find one you like, simply drag it across and it will take
position as a new track (layer) in your composition.
You can add another

instrument to your
song by tapping on the
Instruments option in
the top-left corner of
the screen (or pressing
+) . Scroll to select
another instrument.
When selected, the
new instrument will
appear as a separate
track in your song and
you will be able to
record the new instrument as normal, but with the added bonus of hearing
the original track playing in the background to help with your timing.
4: Trim your songs
1: Go to Track view
2: Move the edges
3: Release when done
Tap the icon left of the playback controls to go

to the Track view and then tap on a track.
Your track will be framed by a white border,

drag either side in or out to trim excess flab.
When finished trimming, simply release and

your track will be saved to the new length.

with ease
1: Double-tap a track
1: Select an instrument
2: Play chords
Go to the Instruments screen and then scroll

left or right. You will come to numerous
options labelled Smart with these all of the
hard work is done for you.
Taking Smart Guitar as an example, the layout

features tabs for common chords, so all you
have to do is strum the strings to play the
chords what could be easier?
Double-tap on a track and a floating bar

of options will appear.
2: Tap edit
Choose Edit and every individual note
from a track will be presented.
3: Using Autoplay

Smart Guitar automatically play chord patterns
based on your selections, which can be useful
for creating backing tracks.
You can switch between chords and notes

by tapping the button to the right of the
Autoplay dial. Now you can pick and bend
notes and do hammer-ons and offs!
3: Tap on notes
By tapping on notes you can bring up
editing options specific to them.

6: Use effects
If you want to change the style of guitar, tap

on Acoustic, which is set by default, and then

to achieve with your song.
Some guitars come with built-in effects pedals

that you can tap on to activate. Experiment
with these to achieve the right sound for your
chosen guitar.

7: Play music using
the keyboard
1: Choose a keyboard
8: Play the iPhone like a guitar

GarageBand is perfectly suited to guitar
players. If your skills are limited then start off
by using the Smart Guitar instrument. Here
you can choose from a variety of guitars,
each boasting their own unique sound. More
accomplished players can toggle Notes via
the switch and play individual strings and
embellish their playing with string bends,
hammer-ons, etc. If you own an electric guitar
and have an iRig adaptor then you can plug
your instrument into your iPhone and then
choose Guitar Amp from the instruments
screen for a wide range of sounds and effects.
Tap on Grand Piano (the default) and

choose your organ and effects.
9: Play the drums

Like with the guitar, there are two options
relating to the percussion aspect of your songs.
From the Instruments screen you can choose
to play Smart Drums or just Drums. The latter
presents a range of kits that you can play
onscreen simply by tapping the applicable
drum its great fun and ideal for honing
your rhythm skills. Smart Drums is a slightly
different proposition as it works on a grid
system simply drag the drums and effects to
the various grid squares and the entire piece
will play like an evenly-spaced, professionalsounding piece of drum play.
2: Change swipe
Tap Glissando and change it to Scroll to
swipe up and down the keyboard.
10: Use the sampler

3: Choose scale
Tap Scale to play a selection of notes
that sound good together.
4: Launch Arpeggiator
This option automatically plays chord
notes in sequence. Tap here to enable it.
If you want to be a little more experimental

with your songs then Sampler is an essential
tool it lets you record any noise you want
and then play it using an onscreen keyboard.
When recording, check that the input level is
satisfactory and then tap on the big red Start
button. When you stop recording you can trim,
shape, tune and loop your sample using the
options listed under the sample window and

it will automatically be assigned to the keys
on the keyboard, playing at a higher or lower
pitch depending on what key you tap. All of
the standard keyboard options will also be
available to help you craft your sound. Sampler
is a brilliant tool for helping you get those
noises in your head into your own audio track.

the Settings menu features a range of options that are tailored to the instrument you are using,
although all feature the option to switch on a Metronome and Count-In to help with the timing of
your composition. In Settings you can also change the tempo, key and time signature of the track
and, if you are using a smart guitar,
bass or keyboard then you can
edit the chords that are displayed
onscreen by default to add in your
favourites and go for some of the
more obscure. Finally, you will find
options to fade the track out at the
