Even performing advanced tasks that require multiple steps on Android can be done quickly on iOS. But many of these features are not easily revealed and unless you are a tech enthusiast or have explored all the features of your smartphone diligently, chances are you still do not know a lot about your smartphone. Take screenshots, for example. Whether you own the latest iPhone 14 or an older iPhone 8 without the Face ID, there are multiple ways of taking a screenshot to fit your needs. And one less known way is using the magnifying and blur effect to efficiently relay the information. Let’s take a look.

iPhone tips: Magnify your screenshots

Normally people take a screenshot and that’s it. And then they will send it as it is to their friends. But, if the screenshot is text-heavy or contains multiple things, it can be difficult to clearly highlight where you want their attention to be. But iPhone has an easy solution for it. For every screenshot that you take, you can add a magnifying glass to it, which zooms into the information you want to highlight. Isn’t that cool?

Now, to make it even better, you can even blur the remaining screen if you do not want them to see the rest of the content. By using these two tools carefully, you can send screenshots where your friend will not have to ask you what exactly are you trying to say.

So, don't wait, try out this feature now. Check out below to know how to take screenshots on an iPhone like a pro.
