The Top 3 Secret iOS 18 Features Apple Didn't Tell You About!

Apple has finally rolled out the highly-anticipated iOS 18 update, and it's packed with exciting new features that will take your iPhone experience to the next level. While Apple did announce many of the update's key features, there are a few hidden gems that they didn't quite highlight during the keynote. In this article, we'll delve into the top-secret features of iOS 18 that are sure to impress.

Firstly, let's talk about the new and improved flashlight feature. Gone are the days of a simple on/off switch; iOS 18 brings a more customizable flashlight that lets you adjust the brightness level to your liking. To access this feature, open the Control Center by swiping down from the top right corner of the screen. From there, tap on the flashlight icon and then long press on it to reveal the brightness slider.

This may seem like a small update, but trust us when we say that it's a game-changer for anyone who uses their iPhone's flashlight on a regular basis. No more fumbling around in the dark with an overly bright or dim light; with iOS 18, you have total control over the brightness of your flashlight.

Another awesome feature that Apple didn't quite shout about is the ability to share your Wi-Fi passwords using QR codes. We've all been there – friends come over and ask for the Wi-Fi password, which often results in a treasure hunt for that pesky piece of paper where we scribbled it down. But with iOS 18, those days are over.

To share your Wi-Fi password via QR code, follow these simple steps:

1. Open the Settings app and navigate to Wi-Fi.
2. Tap on the 'i' icon next to your network name.
3. Scroll down and tap on 'Share Password'.
4. Choose the QR code option.

A QR code will be generated, which you can then share with friends and family. All they need to do is scan the code using their iPhone (or Android device), and they'll be connected to your Wi-Fi network in seconds.

Last but not least, iOS 18 also introduces transcribable voice memos – a feature that's perfect for journalists, students, and anyone who regularly uses voice memos to dictate notes or reminders. With the new update, you can now transcribe your voice memos to text, making it easier than ever to edit and share your recordings.

To access this feature, follow these steps:

1. Open the Voice Memos app.
2. Record a new voice memo or choose an existing one.
3. Tap on the 'Transcribe' button at the bottom of the screen.
4. Wait for the transcription to complete.

And just like that, your voice memo will be converted into text, making it easy to edit and share it with others. This feature is an absolute timesaver and is sure to be a hit among iPhone users.
