1. Quickly close all Safari tabs

In the helpful video, @theapplecollector shows how you can instantly close all of your Safari tabs on an iPhone.

It’s an essential hack for hardcore iPhone users – you may even find you’ve still got hundreds left open.

To close them all, first, open the Safari app. Then press the squares icon in the bottom right corner.

Tap and hold the Done button to reveal how many tabs you have open. Hit Close all tabs.

2. Find words on a web page

If you’re hunting for a specific bit of text on a Safari web page, you can jump straight to it with the search function.

Open a web page and tap the share button at the bottom of your screen.

From the dropdown menu, select Find on page and then type in the text you want to search for.

Pressing on the up and down arrows next to the textbox allows you to quickly jump between different instances of that text.


3. Drag multiple images at once

Among their other must-use tips, the TikToker revealed a way to save time while moving images between apps.

They showed that there was an easy method to move multiple photos at once rather than dragging them individually.

Simply tap and hold an image on the Photos app or in Google images and then tap a succession of other photos that you want to move.

You can then easily move them around as a group into a folder or other new location of your choosing.

Release your finger to drop the group into Notes, iMessage or another app.

4. Drag and drop web links

You can also drag and drop web links from Safari.

In the Safari app, tap and hold the browser bar at the bottom of your screen.

With your finger still held on the screen, use a second finger to navigate to Notes, iMessage or another app.

Release the finger holding the link to paste it into the app.

5. Use the keyboard as a trackpad

A lot of iOS users are unaware that their iPhone comes with a trackpad feature, which makes selecting text and moving the cursor around much easier.

You can use this feature in any text box, such as your Notes app, a search bar, or a text message.

To access it, simply press and hold one finger on the spacebar (all the other keys will grey out).

Then swipe your finger across the spacebar, and your cursor will move around the text box.
