Apple has fitted its iPhone with loads of clever hacks, but they’re not all immediately obvious.

Fortunately, one iPhone fan on TikTok has revealed a brilliant hidden emoji feature.

First, go into iMessage by opening up Apple’s Messages app.

Then open a chat with someone and type an emoji into the text space.

Instead of hitting send, press and hold on the Send icon.

This will unlock a hidden page that lets you send your message with an effect.
