Unknown iOS4 Features You Should Know

June 30th, 2010 Leave a comment Go to comments
As soon as Apple released iOS4, blogs have began posting their reviews, impressions and 101 guides on it. These posts and reviews emphasized many excellent features like Folders for Applications, Unified Mail Box, Threaded Email (similar to how Gmail works), Multitasking, iBooks and a few others.
Here are three features that are less known but very useful:
  • Photo resizing when sending a photo attached to an email. Options include: small, medium, large and original size.
  • Copy a phone number and paste it into the dialer. No need to memorize or write a number on a piece of paper and then key it in. All you need to do is copy a phone number into the clipboard, then open the phone app, switch to the dialer tab and put your finger on the number display area until the Paste menu becomes visible. Voilà.
  • Character count in text message compose window. Very useful for the ones who don’t have an unlimited text messaging plan and want to make sure a text message does not exceed 160 chars

    I turned on Character Count in Messages settings, rebooted, still don't see it when I use Messages.

    Aha. Character count doesn't show until you've typed 25 characters or more!

    I did not know that there was a option for photo resizing, before reading this post. I faced more difficulties for editing and resizing the photos, that every time I needed to go to Adobe Photoshop to do it.
