3. Call with a single button

Open the keypad, tap on the green phone icon and it will automatically redial the last number that you had dialed. Quite easy right?

4. Don't like the mess over the home screen? Hide apps

No one actually likes the home screen filled with a number of apps and you must be having some apps which you don't use so frequently. Just tap on the app and click on 'remove app' and then choose to 'move to app library'.

5. Be the teacher of Siri!

There must be a number of times when your Siri pronounces a word incorrectly. But don't worry, Siri will learn, if you will teach! You need to say “That's not how you pronounce…”. Following that, Siri will ask you for the correct pronunciation and she will quickly learn it.

6. Snap photo with voice commands

You can click your pictures with your voice commands too. Activate the voice controls on your iPhone from settings and then ask Siri to open your camera and take a snap. This won't even need you to click on the snap button.

7. Timer on music

A lot of people have a habit of listening to songs while going to bed. But does your music go on even after that? Here is the iPhone hack! Go to the timer via clock and then 'when timer ends'. Here you need to choose the 'Stop playing' option and set the duration to let your phone play music. Once the timer runs out, the music will stop by itself.

8. Delete text just with a good shake!

Strange right!? You can erase something that you typed just by shaking your iPhone and then click on 'Undo Typing'. You can even redo typing in the same manner. You can even try swiping left with three fingers to delete the text.

9. Add caption to your saved pictures and videos
