Your iPhone’s Apple logo can act as a clever “secret button�.
The back button can perform loads of handy tasks – including taking screenshots.
It’s called “Back Tap�, and it’s part of the new iOS 14 software update.
How to use Back Tap on iPhone
To turn on the feature make sure you’ve updated to iOS 14.
Then go to your Settings.
Scroll down and tap “Accessibility� and then click “Touch�.
Then scroll down to “Back Tap�.
You’ll have the choice to turn on “Double Tap� or “Triple Tap�.
Whichever you select gives you the same options.
Click to see which features you can now control with either a double or triple tap on the Apple logo on the back of your phone.
They include taking screenshots, turning the volume up or down, magnifying, scrolling and more.
For example, if you wanted to use a Double Tap to take screenshots, click the “Double Tap� option and then tick “Screenshot�.
Now you should be able to take a screenshot just by tapping the Apple logo on the back of your phone twice.
Bear in mind that this feature might not work if you have a thick phone case.
You can switch the features Back Tap controls or turn it off anytime by using the same steps above.
